[quote=Anonymous]"Because there are other things that can be wrong with people that are not asd. Asd should not just be a catch all for ‘everything that’s developmentally abnormal’ Maybe they do maybe they don’t. But your description could be many issues and should be categorize accurately" The person I know who has these issues has been diagnosed at least 3 times and is now a high school kid. Three teams of PhD and MD level docs have categorized him as having ASD issues. Not sure why you'd question the diagnosis. My point is that these HFA kids didn't all just get diagnosed at the age of 12. This is just a continuation of challenges they've faced since they were babies. In these cases, it seems wrong to question whether they count as ASD. [/quote]
