Guest guest Posted March 26, 2001 Report Share Posted March 26, 2001 Does it just scare the dickens out of anyone that there is sooo much of all of these? I worked in ps some 14 years ago, and I was shocked at all the ADD and medications given out for that. But I can't even imagine what it must be like now. When is someone going to declare this an epidemic? Our government that seems to have it's hands into everything doesn't even seem to notice our children. How do we protect them, what's to be done? Sorry- I've just fallen into all this and I'm just shocked and shaken. Lolita >means high functioning autism. There is still some debate about >whether HFA and AS are the same thing. NLD has many aspects of AS. >Tony Attwood refers to a continous line from LHA to HFA to AS to NLD >(to ?). At some point the diagnostician picks a point on the ASD >line and declares a diagnosis. Given the rise in ASD, I'll bet soon >someone will come up with another label that's like NLD, but milder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
