[quote=Anonymous]I am biased but I do think it is 90% change in how we diagnose. My ds would never ever have had an asd dx before they changed the dsm. He would only have stood out at school for hyperactivity and sometimes being a sore loser. I grew up in the uk and he fits the mold of a lot of little boys there - very sporty, rough and tumble, not a lot of emotional regulation, low frustration tolerance but a low social impact and no repetitive behaviors or stims. Asd as we diagnose it now almost certainly has genetic roots and sub types that are prob related to genes, how they influence the brain etc. [/quote]
