[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 72143, member: 1550"] Most Aspies don't have all of the traits, just some. My son is on the spectrum and has a GREAT sense of humor, loves puns, and has stopped his horrible behavior once he got interventions. That's why I think it's important to make sure he doesn't NEED the interventions of Aspergers. My kids was a raging mess before getting Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) help. I loved him anyways. I can't explain it, just did. He stopped early though. He has Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified and started speaking at four and a half. Once he broke into speech, he wasn't half as difficult, but the transitions are still a problem. Anyways, this is my suggestion. I would not trust a Pediatrician or even a regular psycologist to diganose him. We went thru the mill. I would see a Neuropsycologist because the testing they do is completely different and very intensive, and will point out weak and strong points for you and in my opinion get you closest to a right diagnosis. so that you can get the child help. My son was on at least ten medications that he didn't need (and that made him worse) due to misdiagnosis. He is still obese from the latter medications. I wouldn't try to diagnosis. my own child!! Take care and look luck. [/QUOTE]
