You are doing exactly like you should. I get frustrated when ‘experts’ just think I’m wrong and don’t look into it. If he does have it and you can get help this early, what a wonderful thing.

I have had concerns in the area of Asperger’s for my son, but everyone seems to find a reason to dismiss my worries. As he nears school age I’m looking in to what options we have available to us.

My son went through his entire childhood not being diagnosed of this. He had a very tough time throughout elementary school. He did make a couple of close friends as the years passed. Doctors need to look closer at these things. Now that he’s an adult, tests are showing he may have Asperger Syndrome, although he’ll need more tests to verify, but at least it gives him a reason why.

Every time I mention it to our doctor he brushes it off — but as we get closer to school age, I find myself wondering how that first year will go.

Happy Sharefest!

Oh, I still linger in the doorway at library story time…. He isn’t quite as comfortable there since there is just one adult with the group of kids. No whimp om about it — we all want to be there for our kids if they need us! 🙂
