[quote=Anonymous]I don't know about MERLD but ASD/asperger kids have to have all three issues: problems with social communication (problems reading social cues, etc), repetitive behavior, obsessive interests. If they have only one or two of the three they don't get an ASD diagnosis but something like social communication disorder, anxiety, OCD, etc. And are not considered on the spectrum. The confusion about MERLD comes from the fact that it can share other comorbid issues like language delay, anxiety, that can also appear with ADHD and ASD.[/quote]
