[quote=Anonymous] The PP has a AS diagnosis she feels fits, so that's good. (However, in her descriptions, she describes the child as having perfectly normal relationships with adults, but not with kids. So that's a bit confusing. She didn't initially mention the repetitive behaviors and the obsessive interests, which are hallmark AS issues and absolutely do affect relationships with adults down the road.) But the OP isn't sure PDD is right at all. There are many reasons a child might avoid eye contact, for example, or have trouble with social cues or be lagging with peers. So I encourage parents to get to the bottom of the issues, especially if the parents and others who work with the child think PDD isn't the answer. [/quote]
