| Hello, My daughter will be nine in August and has resently been diagnosed asperger. I have the same problem as you do with people not believing the diagnose.

| Hello, I don´t think that it is helpful to compare asperger-kids to "normal" kids ( you use the term NT but beeing swedish I don´t know what it means ). My daughter has lots of problems that children without aspergers have not. I know that she hides some of her sides at school but she has to be allo... |

| Hello Bills dad, That sure would be difficult in church! But you gave me a good laugh. My daughter is just the same, but for her it is Barbie or Sailor moon instead of Darth Vader.

| Hello, My eight year old daughter who is diagnosed with asperger talks to herself a lot. She doesn´t always use different voices in questions and answers but it happens.

| Oh yes, I do recognise this. My daughter is just the same. She talks constantly both to me and other people and to toys and dolls etc. Psychiatrist calls it compulsive and is not yet sure if she will include that in her asperger diagnose or if she will diagnose her with adhd as well because of her t... |

She is constantly asking when its time for the next meal and at meal-time she eats large portions but nevertheless gets hungry again within an hour.

Sorting through everything my daughter tells me at the end off her schoolday or after spending time with a friend is not an easy task and has put me too in a few delicate situations. I al... |
