[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 357858, member: 1550"] If you son has Aspergers and is only getting treatment for his possible psychiatric issues, that's like treating pneumonia by just getting rid of the stuffy nose. If he doesn't learn to deal with life as an Aspie in my opinion he's not going to be able to handle life at all. medications are not an adequate treatment for Aspergers nor is just regular talk therapy. The kids really need social skills classes and they also need to learn how to hold a give-and-take conversation and to share their emotions. If not, they rage out of sheer frustration. You need a specialist on the autism spectrum as part of the team because that's the one diagnosis everyone agrees on. And he does sound like an Aspie, in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
