| yes! People with AS care about others and if a child doesn't have asperger's then he most likely (but not always) would be able to show his concern for others! If a 13 year old knows more about what she's saying than she does, she probably shouldn't be licensed! |

| girls with asperger's don't have the same symptoms as boys and I've also had people question my diagnosis. I can't say for sure if your friend's an aspie (you would have to tell me more about her), but chances are, if she was tested by competent professionals, that she is. @ Robdemanc I'm an aspie a... |

| yes!! At night, when I'm really overtired, I get really hyper and talkative (both of which are the opposite of the normal me), I also will randomly laugh hysterically. It's not an AS thing though, it's actually fairly normal. I have NT friends (and siblings) who get really hyper when they are tired.... |

| it is over diagnosed, but also under diagnosed (especially in girls). Also, not all kids with adhd need to go on medication. I'm being tested for ADHD (inattentive type) so, I did a lot of research on it and kids with straight add don't need stimulant-like medicine because they aren't really hyper, ... |

| I dont know, my daughter, 12, is so angry a lot of the time. I feel I'm walking on eggshells around her. She really is very well behaved at school I'm told, then at home turns into this prickly angry scowling ALWAYS cranky girl. I know part of it's puberty, and I know she's holding all her stresses... |

| you kind of seem to be afraid of offending us, I don't think you should be as concerned about offending us as you are. As a matter of fact, I'll be the first to admit I'm really, really annoying )possibly due to my asperger's). |
