[QUOTE="keista, post: 470978, member: 11965"] :) I'm reading your words and laughing at myself. I mentioned the possible missed diagnosis for my daughter. I was so 100% convinced she wasn't Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) partly because I perceived her as being appropriately social. And as a matter of fact, she is. More so than her brother. BUT I wasn't noticing the subtleties of her social ineptness either. I chalked it up to anxiety or being a 'control freak'. When you say that someone is getting the "brunt" of her hugging, it indicates that maybe she is hugging way too much. Which is socially inappropriate. That is the actual distinction - the inappropriateness of the social interaction. by the way Asperger's is on the Autism spectrum. It's just of the very high functioning variety. [/QUOTE]
