[quote=Anonymous]I'm biting my tongue on the use of a the cutesy label "Aspie" which is like nails on a black board for me. I see this as another way to avoid using the proper term for autistic spectrum disorders, something parents often go to great lengths to avoid saying out loud thereby perpetuating the shame. It just sounds so infantalizing to me. But I understand others feel differently. I'm just putting that out there for consideration. Every child with AS is different. You really need to step back and examine what supports your DC needs and work from there. What works for my DS may not work for yours.[/quote]
