[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 564063, member: 8045"] There is 2 things that I read in these posts that I would like to clarify? I don't understand why Aspie is seperated from Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)......because, in my opinion, Aspergers IS on the autism spectrum...and Aspies have an Autism Spectrum Disorder!? Secondly...some mention extreme ADHD or inattentive ADHD....in my opinion, there is 2 types: ADD with hyperactivity or ADD without hyperactivity(the motor driven part).... So if you have ADHD but not ' on the go' you have ADD.....?!Right? Malika, you mention little dude wanting to be in control....that can come from increased anxiety or poor sensory integration issues, poor motor planning....So the child tries to control his environment to predict activities he knows he can handle and will get upset if things doesnt go his way.... To throw in a third confusing aspect....Some kids might SEEM to be hyperactive, but is actually only sensory seekers...You can google the difference between ADHD and sensory integration disfunction....
