I can't find an asperger's link :(

**Patty**

Folks, i was reading t'other day & someone had put up a link to the diagnostic criteria for Asperger's in a kind of tick box format.

And now i can't find it

Has anyone else seen it & which thread was it on please?

Am currently involved in a minor dispute with youngest's school as he meets the criteria for the NAGC but they insist he meets the criteria for Asperger's. I said he doesn't because i'd read this tick box thingy & now i can't find it.

Help lol:eek:

Can't he meet both?

Or is it that the possibility of Aspergers is upsetting you?

:rotfl::rotfl: I already have one at that's Kanner's Autism.......Asperger's is the least of my worries.

No, it's the school's attitude that infuriates me.

Was it somewhere in here? Or possibly somewhere in here?

OK, sorry, I can get that LOL, it just wasn't clear from your post. Are they saying he isn't gifted? Or are they just wanting to make sure that they don't get criticised at a later date for not ensuring that they explore all the possibilities - which I can sort of understand where there's a sibling affected.
