[QUOTE="keista, post: 458457, member: 11965"] [B]Steely[/B], shouldda, couldda, wouldda, but you really couldn't. Asperger's itself only hit the DSM in 1995. Matt was already 5. I suspect the same for PPD-not otherwise specified. It was only about the year 2000 that a full awareness was emerging of the fact that Autism could be "subtle" and wasn't like [U]Rainman[/U] or worse. You did the best you could with the knowledge that was available. Now Matt has to figure out his own way, but he's still got you around to help him through. Take heart, his poor behavior may have been due to the bipolar. DD1 is not on the autism spectrum, but I'm quite certain is somewhere on the bipolar spectrum. She's displaying more and more "poor behavior" despite being a great kid, and knowing all the rules and being easy child about 90% of the time. She's actually embarrassed afterwards when she acts out - especially if it happens in front of the whole school. OY! [/QUOTE]
