my dtr has Aspergers' and it is a diagnosis that can describe a lot of differant personality traits.....for my dtr, it is communication problems, overall poor coordination but that has gotten much better( she is an adult), and social awkwardness.....no friends, never really had one....

also, she is a bit paranoid and hyper sensitive to criticism and will go on and on if you say something she doesn't agree with....

when she was little, she was relatively happy.....a loner though...she played with her brother a lot....

seems as she grew older, she withdrew more from other kids....paranoid of them .....she probably had a right to be since kids pick on anyone who is differant....

if I had only realized early on maybe I could have done school, etc differantly.....

Have you considered a gluten free diet for your daughter? It seems to help a lot of individuals who have Aspergers’ or who are on the Autism spectrum. It may be worth looking into for your daughter.
