[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 644634, member: 1550"] IC, sure, it's GREAT if the teachers see it. The more help, the better. However, many teachers in the U.S. never even heard of Aspergers. Yes, it's embarassing. But it's true. They think everything is ADHD, which is the only disorder some of them can even articulate in any way. Sonic's school did not believe he was on the spectrum nor did their answers indicate Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) behavior. It's too bad. I was fortunate the neuropsychologist kind of didn't pay attention to their ADHD bias. So while I agree with you, the neuropsychologist will test for it even without the teachers thinking he has it. And they did send all sorts of forms to the schools and to us to fill out. It was very time consuming...I get tired just thinking about it! [/QUOTE]
