[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 687223, member: 1550"] My neuropsychologist was smart. He called sonic autistic spectrum disorder. Nobody, at least not in the U.S. can ignore that. Aspergers and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified doesnt exisist anymore. You need an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. Although, In my sons autism group, plenty of adults that were dianosed with asperger (most seem to be functioning way below that) are getting ssi,, supports and services that they need. They get help finding jobs too. Most work. Now this was before Aspergers and Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified were all lumped togerher as Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). At least in the U.S. finding the right agency and having an is extremely important. And if he can be reevaluated and listed as Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) thats a good first step. The legal system doesnt help. Forget the cops. You need to call aging and disabilities in human resources. They will do a free assessment if you like. I trust private assessments better. We started straightbout of high school and were told to go to aging and disabilities. Call them! Good luck. [/QUOTE]
