Private pyschologist said that when the ASDS questionnaire, "he did not even the criteria for borderline AS".
But she said his Theory of Mind tests by the other Dr and her tests, and our recollections of events, had shown Empathy was a real problem. Plus she lists : 'adult language', not wanting to please parents, poor peer friendships, echoing of teacher often in sarky voice, with sarky comments. I could go on.
But I am left with no diagnosis. But people say AS is Spikey. They say you can't have a diagnosis of 'Aspergers tendancies ' ( see, I have researched all the old MN threads !!)
she says he needs to "be treated as an 'AS child".
But where does that leave me ? As good as useless, or so it feels.
