[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am 10 and have slight asperger's. I have no sensory disorders. Most kids with severe adhd symptoms are more obvious if they are not treated at an early age. Same with asperger's. People think asperger's is worse than it actually is. I just have some behavior disorders now. Your Answer:severe ADHD is worse.[/quote] I have a child with Asperger's who the developmental pediatrician describes as "classic Asperger's". No ADHD, any learning disabilities or anxiety according to our recent neuropsych eval only ASD/Asperger's. No academic issues at all, if fact, academics are a strength. He does have fine motor issues but no other sensory issues. His IEP only addresses social issues and behavior. I was told this is very common for Aspies and the main reason most people with AS are not diagnosed. Social deficits were not considered important by schools who are mainly concerned with academics.[/quote]
