Janna,
From what I've read and learned from Mom's here, AS, as I see it....
1. no speech delays
2.lack of eye contact
3.lack of peer interactions
4. social issues
5. normal to high intelligence
6. fixated on certain issues- like animals (meercats, for corey)
7. sensory issues
8. difficulty with reading nonverbal cues
I hope I have this right
Amy
