Don’t get me wrong, I am not one who says there is no such thing as autism, but when we lump profound autism in with Asperger’s it irritates me.
Probably because I was diagnosed with it. Is it as bad as autism? No way. It is real though. There is a definite delay in social skills at least in my case until the teen years.
PS My folks got no money for it and decided to keep it out of any permanent records luckilly.
