Asperger’s Syndrome doesn’t make you smarter than normal, you don’t have Asperger’s Syndrome, and Asperger’s Syndrome is largely an excuse for children to feel special about themselves.Your average Aspie is basically the slightly less retarded version of an indigo child.
I was diagnosed with it when I was 12, and for a year afterward I became an entirely different person, convinced I had it. Before I knew it, I had three therapists and my school had begun treating me differently. It was a mess.
The fact is, anybody who walks into a neurologist’s office can get diagnosed with it, because it’s the new ADHD right now.
Couldn’t agree more with Lethe Consumes. an overly diagnosed excuse for kids and parents to feel special. As a teacher I see it all the time – usually what lies behind the student is a set of parents or a parent who wants their child/ren to be smart – so they influence the child, pressure the child beyond their capabilities and then the child is left confused, bewildered…..i would say the parents are the fault and use their kids to live their lives. If these diagnoses were true …ADHD and Aspergers then why do they settle as adults….
