[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 410336"] His regular doctor could do allergy tests or refer him out for them. The only adults that have asked if I've had my kiddo tested for autism are those who have or work with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids. So I'll grant it may be bias, and for years I looked at my kid and said "No way," but at this point even I have to admit that she and I both have some strong Aspie traits if nothing else. Many gifted kids do share a lot in common with Aspies, though I couldn't tell you if it's intertwined or parallel. All that aside, "[URL="http://www.amazon.com/Explosive-Child-Understanding-Frustrated-Chronically/dp/0061906190/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1299079510&sr=1-1"]The Explosive Child[/URL]" - and changing my approach, can make a lot of difference in her tantrums. Catch my kid when she's having a great day, and she's the kind of kid that makes me proud to be a parent, which is saying a lot considering my life plans did not include any kids.
