Guest guest Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 , Which doctor have you seen already? Was it just a family doctor? They are probably not that familiar with all the details of AS. Kids can have some symptoms, and not others. They can want very badly to have friends, but not know how to go about that, or do it very awkwardly. Even if someone is "socially immature" they need professional help to catch up, you should have been referred to a psychologist or psychiatrist. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Suzanne suzmarkwood@...

I am having a lot of trouble getting help for my daughter. I was told that she had PDD then Aspergers then Brain Dysfunction and everything would be fine once she reaches 18 yrs of age because she is really just socially immature. The Dr. decided she couldn't have aspergers since she could talk and wanted to have friends. That children with Asperger do not want to have friends that they just don't care about stuff like that. That a child with Aspergers didn't text on cell phones or join chat rooms on the computer. I really need some help. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
