[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are a lot of studies that say that many kids with ASD/Asperger's are NOT getting diagnosed and NOT getting the services and supports that they need and are entitled to.[/quote] Studies? I've seen none of those. Opinions, yes. Links?[/quote] Don't have time to look but someone posted this link; http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/273229.php Not exactly what you are looking for but the article does not indicate much if any misdiagnosis for Asperger's Here is an NPR story on why Asperger's is now ASD/Asperger's in the DSM-5 http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=123527833 Note, it's to get services. Unlike ASD, having an Asperger's diagnosis did not automatically qualify kids with the diagnosis for services/supports in some states most notably California. [/quote]
