[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 407324, member: 1550"] Well, there are exceptions. I think lack of being able to make eye contact is important. My son can't. CAN'T. when I asked why, he said, "Eyes make me nervous." Okie! Also, my understanding, from the neuropsychologist wo diagnosed my son with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified, is that Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified kids have early delays, which my son had. He didn't speak or potty right until four and a half. Aspies often talk early, sounds like little professors when they talk, and appear to be very VERY bright as toddlers. I also think though that it depends on who is diagnosing. We have a kid with Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified as a diagnosis. on the school bus in which I'm an aide. I have to duck not to get hit by him as he flails his arms and legs. He screams the entire trip, although he is not protesting...he just likes the sound of his voice, I think. He usually smiles as he does this. He also tries to climb out of his car seat. This reminds me of my son when he was younger. The child is not malicious. He is simply very different. [/QUOTE]
