my husband and children are aspergers.they are not high functioning autism,the clinical diagnosis from top psychologist in U/K. IS ASPERGERS.i work in a special school ,with aspergers and autistic children,the children at the school with diagnosis of aspergers apear to the world as normal.they all have average or above I Q.develope at normal speed.just bad communication and behaviour skills single them out,the autistic children present as slow learners,delayed speech.below average I Q.there are sometimes problems with diagnosis,here in u/k.some are diagnosed too young.when you say these things the parents of autistic children can get very cross .but its what i see every day,at a big special needs school.some parents see it as a put down,its not meant to be,you have to be honest,here in u/k,its all classed as learning difficulties.i believe in america it comes under mental health,
