[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 200711, member: 1550"] Marg did it again. I never know how to define autism/Aspergers. I even sent my son to an autism specialist to explain his differences to him. I didn't know how to do it. I CAN tell you that Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is one of the most hopeful diagnoses a child can have (if one calls ANY diagnosis. hopeful). These kids simply WILL improve if they get the right interventions. Some will improve enough to live typical lives, even though Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) doesn't go away. To me, a woman with bipolar, I think my son has been able to adapt faster than I did to his disability. And I need medications; he doesn't. Not trying to say "this diagnosis. is better than THAT diagnosis.), but Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), a neurological disorder, can improve. Most psychiatric disorders pretty much stay the same. If I went off my medications, I would be the same as I was forty years ago :< Lucas has improved for good and will continue to do so. in my opinion, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids and adults are both amusing and wonderful. The special qualities that Marg outlined make them good people who just may need a little more help in life. But I would happily adopt three more spectrum kids (if I wasn't an old fart) :) [/QUOTE]
