They wrote this in this site:

http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/aspe ... #115363080

"Current research points to brain abnormalities as the cause of AS. Using advanced brain imaging techniques, scientists have revealed structural and functional differences in specific regions of the brains of normal versus AS children. These defects are most likely caused by the abnormal migration of embryonic cells during fetal development that affects brain structure and “wiring” and then goes on to affect the neural circuits that control thought and behavior."

They say "abnormalities" and "defects". Why? I think that they should not use these words.

I frown upon those words, but imagine what words people may have used in the times of Asperger himself to describe us.
