| I don't know why that would be a source of fear; "mild autism" already requires the exact same support and therapy as "Asperger's", and can't be told apart clinically. They're essentially the same thing. How come saving money would get you diagnosed with one or the other? It's more the fact that it... |

I also fear that it will make ever one and there mother have ADD/ADHD. At the age of 31 I just don't really want to deal with a lot ... |

| I'm at the point where I don't want the USA going into any more wars. We have a habit of letting people that are far wores then the last person come into power. I will put it this way is it bad in Syria? Yes but what reason is there for the UN, NATO, or US to go there? Do we know who we are helping?... |

Now there's a topic for a documentary Well that would have a lot to do with the fact that ever one 30 and over has had a lont time to wo... |

| My problem here is the same problems I have with ADD, ADHD, or any other spectrum is that people are trying to make us all the same. You can take two people with aspergers and they will have different strong and weak points. Same goes with ADD, ADHD, etc. It's why they are on a spectrum becasue just... |
