Asperger's


Recommended Posts

Just a thought, although this is a recognised as being part of the autism spectrum, does anyone feel the symptoms could be imposed onto a person without realisation by the parents/guardian's during formative years ????

 

Sorry if its a bit too deep at this time of the day :thumbs:

You Sir, must be the most patient man in Britain.   That must be some woman you've got that you've stuck around for her, even just reading that post I know I wouldn't be up to it.   Hat's off to y

Could over stimulation in formative years through TV, console games etc play a part ? There seems to be a push to get kids onto medication at an ever earlier age, good buisness for the big pharma co

Do you mean the symptoms could be what the child thinks as normal behaviour because of their upbringing, but misconstrued by the adults?

It is a bit early :thumbs:

Yeah that's more or less the point mate, would the child grow thinking his actions are normal behaviour, although not misconstrued by the adults, more reinforced by their peers/parents.

 

Just a theory/view I have been looking into regarding the sheer lack of social interaction skills which seem to be increasingly prevalent throughout today's society, More apparent in the lack of empathy, emotional reciprocation and non-verbal communication characteristics.

Well I'm no expert but I think a large proportion of kids today lack basic social skills.... Whether that's their upbringing, emulating parents behaviour, a lack of social interaction from an early age or whatever....

My cousin was a bit of a handful when he was younger, no doubt helped by his mum who took it upon herself to diagnose him with ADHD, PTSD, ADD and every other psychological acronym you can think of. He never took the blame for his actions as she honestly believed he had a condition. Now he's a normal guy, but I definately think there's a correlation between perceived conditions and children's behaviour.

Also, lesser cases of autism, aspergers, ADHD and the like are quite hard to diagnose considering as you say the lack of empathy etc in some people, so perhaps guardians are too quick to jump the gun in some cases and blame an outside influence as opposed to dealing with the behaviour in the first place.

my nephews autistic, only slightly but he's 5yrs old cant really talk proberly dreading it when he goesto comp. :(

 

Should autism and aspergers be on the same spectrum? or are they both differing poles on the same sliding scale debatable, due to the amount of articles written separating the two conditions.

 

Hans Asperger studied children with autism and first recognised children who had previously been diagnosed as autistic having totally differing symptoms which later became known as aspergers.

 

Comprehensive schools are more geared to helping children out with these disorders now, the main problem will be narrow minded individuals who take it upon themselves to ostracize and discriminate against others.

 

It is this lack of social skills and any form of diversity exercised by so many that continuously outcasts and ridicules the weaker amongst society, more often than not to mask their own short falls in the whole social interaction hierarchy, hoping they are not themselves found out by their peers and subsequently targeted, becoming an outcast from their bullying pack.

To be honest mate I dont know enough much about either to make any kind of judgement. The comment about comperhensive schools being more geared to help children with these problems I really hope that is the case but not what I was really worried about.

I think '' Autistic spectrum'' is just the umbarella term used, I know having worked with teens with '' low level Autism'' that there no way they could be placed in a mainstream school , most of the clients i worked with were doubly incontinent for a start
