There are no official diagnoses in my family, but lots of Aspie traits on both sides.

I have no one diagnosed in my family with ASD; however, I am suspicious of my nephew (I was doing the research on him when I stumbled across my own future diagnosis--I was just diagnosed 2 weeks ago). As of today though, I remain the only diagnosed person in my family.

My mom has told me that one of my uncles seems to exhibit some AS traits but no one has been diagnosed. Then again, I haven't officially been diagnosed either so a lack of official diagnoses doesn't say much to me.
