[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 529447, member: 11791"] Its fuzzy for lots of reasons - not just mis-dxes. For example, a very high functioning Asperger's kid may have LESS "issues" than a kid who has ADHD, Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD), LDs and a few other things tossed in for good measure. But... this second kid is NOT a missed-diagnosis of Aspergers or Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Its just a really complex kid. How do I know? Because that is MY kid. Absolutely NOT Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) or Aspergers. Even the "clinically significant findings" in that area have been shot down... caused by accumulated deficits from other non-diagnosed things. Everybody wants to look at things as a single line, with a whole continuation of severity. It isn't even a circle... it's a globe. There are so many combinations and permutations that... experts miss half of it, for a minimum. [/QUOTE]
