"Asperger's Syndrome, a behavioural condition with similarities to autism" - Really???

[lou031205]

So say the Daily Mail.

I thought Aspergers was an ASD, not a 'behavioural condition'.

So not a pervasive developmental disorder after all. I'll have to have a word with DD's psychologist!

fucking stupid cunts

Idiots.

Anybody else reading this thinking, poor kid!! Bad enough to be caught up in a tussle between divorced parents but surely even worse for one with aspergers.

That just looks like poor reporting really. Poor kid though.

I wonder why she went to such lengths to run away and hide for so long. And why, having done all that and clearly loves her child, she would sooner leave him to social services than go back to live in France and be close to him.

I can't help feeling there is something not being reported.

And that description of aspergers, well!

Oh but I had to chuckle at the cheese thing. The DM was loving making that a big thing. Next there'll be a picture of the kid riding a bicycle, with a black and white striped jumper on, wearing a string of onions round his neck and sporting a rather fetching moustache.

That's what you get from reading the Daily Mail.

Should we write to them? These days I feel like I'm writing to the DM every day

sigh, just another person who doesnt know a from b
