[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 40770, member: 1991"] I will go so far as to say to someone, "has he ever been checked out for...?" and if asked, passing on some names of local experts. A lot of the time, though, I sit there and observe, wondering. Autistic/Aspie/ADHD kids tend to find one another and gravitate together. I can look at difficult child 1's friends and assess which is a likely Aspie and which are just behaviour problems. Same with difficult child 3. My kids reckon I see autism and Asperger's under every rock. While they may be right, I think I am right, too. Even difficult child 1 has started it - we watch a TV program or documentary and I will hear him say, "I BET that kid is an Aspie!' difficult child 3 asked his speech therapist (also good friend) if her daughter is autistic. "Because she is very smart, I thought she must be," was his explanation. Marg [/QUOTE]
