[quote=Anonymous]Go with Conlon. I took our 4 yr old to Shapiro and got an Asperger's diagnosis. His school and the team at Children's also came up with AS. Like you, however, the other parents with AS kids including a relative with a 16 yr old Aspie tell me, they don't think he has AS b/c he's very social and engaging with them, good eye contact, etc Well, he's always been great with adults... Doesn't matter. Treat the deficits. The main disadvantage for ADHD vs ASD is you will only get 504 accommodations rather than an IEP. But depending on the supports your school can provide, it may not matter. My kid gets a social skills group 3-4x a wk at school that's very helpful but anyone can participate not only kids with SNs.[/quote]
