[QUOTE="Steely, post: 458441, member: 3301"] This is what has happened with Matt. He has NOW become agoraphobic and agonizes over the right and proper thing to say to people. Whereas when he was little he was just out there, wagging his tongue any which way, and getting in trouble every 5 seconds. The thing is that not ONE Dr every told me that he was AS, or Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) - they always separated out the 3 and were very clear that he had NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD). However, as times has gone on, and I myself have done more research, I realized that NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) is within the AS spectrum - and THAT would have been a whole other school experience. I could have gotten him an aide, and more social accommodations - as it was - no one really knew what NonVerbal Learning Disorder (NVLD) was except how it affected his academics. They blamed his poor behavior on his bi-polar. Sigh....I wish I could have done more....known more. [/QUOTE]
