I’d heard that Asperger’s was removed. Seems like Autism isn’t a mental illness and shouldn’t be in the DSM, though, right? It’s a neurological or mental difference.
I know folks with autism who care a lot how they impact others. I knew kids who acted out and were terrible and didn’t have any diagnosis whatsoever.
I think back to parenting shows like SuperNanny and I think that parents need to take responsibility for setting clear boundaries, regardless of what’s going on with their kid.
