[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] ADOS, the "gold standard" autism test as we are so often told, is all about social interaction. It's the deficits in social interaction lead to an autism score on the test. [/quote] My kid was diagnosed through ADOS. The neuropsych pointed out DS is "highly socially motivated" AND on the spectrum. You can have deficits in social interactions while still being "highly socially motivated" because autism means that they have deficits is social communication +. My DS wants and has friends.[/quote]
