[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]oops forgot to add..can a child get an asd diagnosis if all they have is an obsession and no social deficits?[/quote] First of all the obsessions can be social deficits and if the child doesn't understand that others don't want to talk about it at length. And social deficits doesn't mean no friends. It just means that their social interaction and understanding isn't at the same level with their peers. My DS with AS has a lot of friends but its pretty obvious that he doesn't interact in the same way they do. And, yes, he is very creative. He writes beautiful poetry. Its simply not true that kids with ASDs can't be creative. Some aren't, some are.[/quote]
