From the article:
Quote:
It read: "Two characteristics in common with people of that condition are that he is extremely impulsive and not likely to think ahead of what the possible ramifications might be. In retrospect he can see he has done something wrong.
I've never read that a lack of impulse control is a characteristic of AS. The article implies that people with AS can't control any impulses related to their obsessions, and that this is so extreme that they can't be held accountable for their actions. It also implies that we aren't always capable of thinking ahead, which I doubt is true.
I might not always have the
best impulse control, but it's not that bad. I'm certainly responsible for my actions, and I
do understand the consequences of them.
