What else can I help you with?
What is on the highly functioning end of the spectrum of autistic disorders?
High Functioning is an offensive and meaningless term, it's about judging Autistic people as acceptable or not based on how severely they're effects by their Autism or the ways in which their Autism effects them. An Autistic person is an Autistic person, full stop.

Does autism affect of social life?
Yes, Autism has a big impact on a persons social life. People who are Autistic have social and communication problems which means that making and maintaining friendships is very difficult, and often neurotypical people can dislike Autistic people because they don't mimic neurotypical body language or because Autistic people act differently to neurotypical people. Autistic people also often struggle to maintain social interaction, it requires a lot of extra effort for Autistic people to be around other people so they may not be able to cope with being around people for too long, especially in large groups or in busy places. Autistic people can also commonly be unemployed, in the UK around 85% of Autistic adults are not in full-time employment or education, this limits Autistic people's ability to meet new people, maintain learned social skills, and means that Autistic people don't have the money to socialize. Autistic people are often very social and want to have friendships, but their problems and their situation can mean that they end-up becoming very isolated.
Is there something wrong with the autistic brain?
That depends on your definition of "wrong". A person with autism is at one end of a spectrum of what is seen in a population.

How can you support your son who has autism?
Learn about autism - not just from doctors or studies but from autistic people themselves, autistic adults have already been through what your son is going to go through so can help. There are many resources by autistic people, for example if you are on Facebook Karla's ASD Page is a great recourse for parents of autistic children, and Karla herself is autistic so can give great insight into autism. Even if your son is severely effected and the adults you talk to are not, remember that many autistic adults were severely effected as children, also that no matter what we all have symptoms in common. Autistic adults have meltdowns like autistic children, where as a severely autistic person may not be able to explain what a meltdown is, how it feels, or what to do to help them...a person not so severely effected can tell you these things, and likely able to explain better thanks to the benefit of a lifetime of experience. Support your son - understand that issues like meltdowns are not behavioural, a meltdown for an autistic person is as unpleasant and uncontrollable as a seizure for an epileptic. Don't scold autistic behaviour or try to train it out of him, accept his autism and work with it to help him live as full a life as possible, trying to force him to be something he is not (neurotypical) doesn't help him and may make his problems worse. Also, don't sell him short - even if severely effected now he may improve in time, the world is full of stories where a child could have been deemed 'severely autistic' only to grow-up to outperform their neurotypical peers and live independently, functioning as well as any neurotypical person. If your child doesn't improve that isn't the end of the world, you will still love them and see how wonderful they are.
