[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids can't "lose" an autism diagnosis. That's sort of like saying in the middle of a gestational period, that a woman is no longer pregnant. If they no longer had a diagnosis of autism, it's likely they were misdiagnosed to begin with. Children can show very autistic like behavior but not have full blown autism. Stupid, stupid researchers out there and doctors diagnosing our children.[/quote] ^^ As the parent of a grown HFA, now "on the spectrum", I have to say, if your kid is autistic, you know it, and they don't outgrow it. it also becomes much more apparent as they grow and try to function in the real world, like college or jobs. We are just starting to learn just how crippled our DC is.[/quote]
