[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 184383, member: 1550"] I have to also chime in that Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified (atypical autism, which IS a form of autism) does NOT follow the guidelines for classical autism or Aspergers. My son is somewhere between Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified and Aspergers. He does not fit everything in the clinical diagnosis, but he still would be struggling as a teenager if he hadn't had school interventions. Education is NOT the key to helping Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). Interventions usually done in school is the key issue. Good lord, some of these kids are Little Einsteins, but they can't figure out how to tie their shoes or they wear the shoes on their wrong feet (uncaring) or they don't mind smelling bad around their peers or they'll wear pink and purple clothes...they are more socially clueless than academically troubled in many cases. My son is finally "catching on to life" but he had A LOT of help--NONE of it by a psychologist. I don't find psychologists useful for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) nor do I feel they are good at diagnosing childhood disorders. That's NOT their field. They tend to think everything is a behavior problem and often insinuate that it's "bad parenting." husband needs to get off the pity-pot and in my opinion you need to go to a neuropsychologist for a different type of and more intensive evaluation. You go, girl! ;) [/QUOTE]
