Thanks. I think i'm more concerned that she just won't understand. I have suspicions she's aspie too as she does display a lot of the traits. But since she doesn't really have access to information easily i know she only identifies aspergers and autism with the stereotype many believed back a good 20-30yrs ago which would explain why she would have thought i was a normal average functioning child. My cousin was not long since diagnosed with aspergers a few years back and he is destructive and i know she'll be comparing us... but we're both polar opposites on the outside. I don't speak to him much these days but when i do, we totally get each other which is something everyone else does not see and never has. It's always been he's the bad kid and i'm the good kid.
