I am a mother of a 14 year old boy and we live in Norway. The authorities in Norway will take him to fostercare because I have this diagnose, and I have been a good mother for him in 14 years already!!!!!!!!!
There are a lot of judgemental people here in Norway. What can I do?
Disappointed with this guy's misunderstanding of ASDs, but otherwise it's an excellent review of what's going on in the field.
Perhaps the most common autistic spectrum disorder, Asperger's syndrome, shows no symptoms until age 7 or older. So many MD's don't recognize this disorder when it's staring them in the face because there was no verbal delay during childhood, but that's a diagnostic criterion for Asperger's - no verbal delay (DSM-IV-TR). Many MD's are still missing the boat!
I also wish people would see people with autistic spectrum disorders as mostly adults, because we are. Assuming it's a lifelong condition, it just stands to reason that there are more adults with ASDs than children, but the beginning of this video consisted exclusively of pictures of adorable children. We do grow up you know, and many of us were only diagnosed later in adulthood.
