[QUOTE="Katherine61, post: 636329, member: 18414"] Hi Plexicos, I've read almost everything there is out there on Aspersers. This is what they first diagnosed my son with 3 years ago. His diagnoses have changed in the last year. He now is passive aggressive and conduct disorder. Children with Aspersers can have melt downs, most have ADHD, they also do not fear punishment. I do believe as of Oct. 1 this year they have taken Aspersers out of the books. It is no longer considered because it is so complex. The American Psychiatric Association (DSM-V, this years bible for the psychiatrist) are now calling it, Disorder within the Autism Spectrum. I do believe he needs to be tested by a pediatric psychiatrist. I know how mom feels...it's a very hard thing to admit, you may not have the perfect child. This mom feels at times, it's her fault. It sucks. It took me 10 years to finally admit there was something wrong with my son. Now, that I have, I'm fighting to get him help. [/QUOTE]
