Guest guest Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 I was wondering how many of you went for second opinion? I just got the results back and he didn't seem too concerned. He said he did find that my son had some socail-emotional delays and that his personality does fit into the AS spectrum. And that his laungage is on the lower end and does also fit. Yet he said that he thinks that he is going to be just fine and would not lable him AS. He seemed to blow off all the concerns I have and all the issues we have had in the past because he is doing so well in school. And he felt that just because he doesn't have any friends and that because he was able to express that he wants friends that took him out of the AS " lable " . He also said that he did see some rises in his excitability when they did different test and that also ment that he does not have AS because kids with AS have very flat personalities and even though he is close to haveing what he called " flat " he wouldn't put him in the catagory. He didn't take into concideration that my son loves math and science and building puzzles and that is why he was happy to do it. Now just last night I sat through a movie with him and his sister and all he could do is point out all the misconceptions in the movie. You can breath in outerspace you would die, people can't fly, lizzards don't grow that big, on and on, tell me how a nine year old boy gets so litteral and can not get over the fact that it is just pretend. He has always been like that since he was a little boy. So many things.... maybe it is just me. I just don't know any advice would be great.
