Guest guest Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Asperger's Syndrome discussed on the Dr. Phil Show Tuesday - January 17 Check your TV listings for exact time and station Does your child rage, scream and kick doors? Is his or her behavior the typical brattiness of a spoiled child, or involuntary behavior beyond the child's control? Dr. Phil sheds light on a pair of widely misunderstood extreme neurological disorders. First, he looks at Asperger's syndrome, a high-functioning form of autism which causes a person to lack control over his or her emotions, including anger. Rich and 's 15-year-old son, , was diagnosed with Asperger's at age 6. His sudden fits of rage and erratic behavior have put a strain on his whole family. Should his parents be afraid of , or is there something they can do to bring his behavior under control? Plus, Craig, 37, can't control his physical tics, nor can he keep from constantly uttering obscenities, literally hundreds of times a day. Craig suffers from Tourette syndrome, an affliction that's gotten so bad, he won't go into grocery stores, movie theatres or any public place for fear he'll be kicked out. What will the disorder mean for his plans to start a family? ________________________________________ Loving Care,Grammy Gay IBS-1930, IBD-1984, SURGERY-1988, CD-1994, SCD-1997, REMISSION-1998, NO-MEDS.
