In the US it can be registered as such. In most cases AS is not a disibility however some symptoms may make it into one.

For example some people with AS may experiecnce clumsiness and want to enroll in the Army. They probably wouldn't even make it through the physical exams.

AS can make people feel awkward in social situations and this can cause them to avoid people and this can also be viewed as a disability.

What is one challenge for children with Asperger's Syndrome?

Most children with Asperger's get very angry because most people like to call them ''nerds'' or ''geeks''. Most children like to hit them because of this but I think it is best not to pick on them. When they are angry they go mad and berserk which other children called ''psycho'' or ''handicapped''. And though most say it is a disability to have Asperger's it is not a disability. I believe that it's because most children are so disabled they can call their superiors a "geek" or "nerd" and hit them!!! When a child goes berserk it is not his fault and other children are the ones who are meant to be blamed. I have Asperger's and I do not know why when others like me go berserk people blame them instead of those ''disabled" little critters.
