Can anybody explain about aspergers in children ?

Aspergers syndrome is a type of developmental disorder which delays many basic skills, especially one's ability to socialize and communicate with others as well as to use one's imagination. It is similar to autism but children with Aspergers are usually able to function better than children with autism.


How do you become an expert on aspergers?

The best way to become an expert on the syndrome would be to read and research as much as you can about the topic. It would also benefit you to try and find people with AS and get their point of view as well. Also, talking to pychologists and pyschiatrists are good ways to get info on aspergers.


What are the symptoms of aspergers syndrome?

Some of the symptoms of aspergers include failure to make eye contact, failure to pick up on facial cues, unusual facial expressions, and an inability to connect with others. These symptoms may change as a person gets older and learns how to better adapt to society. Webmd.com is an excellent resource to learn more about syndrome, as well as kidshealth.org.

Is a relationship with a person with asperger's syndrome doomed?

Not at all.People with Aspergers fall in love and care about people, just like people without Aspergers.The thing is, people with Aspergers have their own style of communication, and people without Aspergers have a different style of communication. Emotions manifest in certain ways in persons with Aspergers, and in slightly different ways with non-Aspergers. So sometimes two people both with Aspergers get along well, because they understand eachother, and can read each other's emotions better. Sometimes neurotypicals (that is, people without Aspergers) don't propperly read the emotions of someone with Aspergers, and vice versa. So there can be challenges in a neurotypical/Aspie relationship, but that relationship is not doomed. You just have to both learn to understand each other, which is perfectly possible if you both want to.The important thing to remember, is that each person with Aspergers is a unique individual with an individual personality, just like each person without Aspergers.I have Aspergers. My closest friend does also. We have a lot of affection for each other. Sadly, not everyone else understands me. But he does. Our friendship proves that we are capable of deep emotionally felt love.And it really is possible for a deep relationship to exist when one person is neurotypical (not aspergers) and the other has aspergers. But it does really help when you understand Aspergers.Aspergers: Capable of deep love, like anyone else.May have more subtle or different ways of showing emotion.Tended to be socially awkward when young. May have learned social skills in adulthood, or may still come across as a little weird.Will always have an Obsession. What this is about, depends on the individual. If he/she is in love with you, you may be their Obsession.


Is asperger's syndrome serious?

Probably, but it has only recently been named as such and clearly defined. Improved: Noone really knows when Aspergers' Syndrome was FIRST thought out, but the first researcher to define it, has since then made the case. You never know, back when the cavemans were around, Aspergers' syndrome could've had some effect.

Can people with Asperger's syndrome recognize their own symptoms?

Yes! I have Aspergers and always suspected that I was on the autism spectrum. Formal diagnosis has since confirmed it. V briefly I strongly dislike social situations unless with people I know well; loud noises; lack of routine & spontaneity; responsibility for others; strong emotional reactions by others; etc. I like logic and order; and get obsessed with certain topics, which I read about/research tirelessly. Aspergers has as many positives as negatives, in my experience.

Is Aspergers a sex linked syndrom?

No, but in one study boys with aspergers outnumber girls 4 to 1 where as another study read that boys may outnumber girls by 10 to 1. I am a female Aspie and there is strong evidence showing that aspergers is caused within the genes, more likely on the father's side but it can happen on the mother's side as well.
