[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 539580, member: 1550"] Autistic kids tend to have very good hearts and consciences and get very upset when they do something wrong. That is my experience with my son and in the group of autistic kids I attend. Not all are as socially clueless as one would think...many can learn. However, autism does not mean they can not love or attach to people, just that often they have trouble showing it. My own son has a heart of gold. He is overly sensitive to when others are hurting. He may never give me a hug unless I ask for one, but he will say, "Mom, are you sad? Can I help?" Antisocials have no emotions toward people or animals other than as objects of their gratification. They do not get sad w hen people die or are hurt and they often cause the hurt. In extreme cases, they kill. Here is an interesting to an antisocial personality disorder forum. Do you really think your son thinks like these people do? Check out the answers. They say more than the questions. Having said that, I often wonder about your son and aspergers too. Do you think he has it? To me (and I'm a big Nobody) he seems more socially involved than most Aspie teens, but then again they are all so very different.
