He seems more like someone with classic autism. When I was a kid, I was loud, obnoxious and in your face. Buster and D.W. have more AS traits than Carl does. Brain is just the sterotypical "know it all". I wish they would have just given one of them an AS diagnosis. There is hope for Carl, but he needs work.
Yeah...unfortunately, if they diagnosed either of them with AS now, it would just cause confusion.
I swear though, if Glee gets an AS or ASD kid, I will punch something.
Too late. Glee just makes me want to kill things
I thought the explanation of AS was brilliant, however yeah it was the ol' trains again. Has he started counting matches yet? I have met kids (including myself in that) that are a bit like Carl and who have AS. I liked this explanation in the episode though
