Why do people posting in forums suggest that seductive behaviors in children indicate autism or Asperger's Syndrome?
From my own personal experience and from some data I have seen, I'll take a stab ath this question. People suggest that children with high-fuctioning autism or Asperger's Syndrome are "seductive" because they are un-educated about the background of asperger's or autism. People who have this "condition" are not very adept at reading the small naunces of societal norms. Which include, nonverbal behavior, social norms and boundaries. These boundaries include such things as personal space. So it would be possible that a child sufferering from autism or Asperger's Syndrome to be open to be grabbing a stranger's hand or hugging indiscriminately. On the same token, they will step into a stranger's personal space or maintain unbroken eye contact. The list goes on and on. I do not see how this behavior can be seen as "seductive". But I suppose everyone has their interpretation, unfortunately.

It all just really depends what they are like. Some can write big and sloppy and some can write neat and tidy. An Aspergers person can write neater or sloppier than anyone else.

Adult aspergers syndrome?
People with Aspergers tend to see large improvements as they get older. Children with Aspergers tend to be what others may say, "In their own world" as they may be obsessive with certain things and prefer to be alone. Teens with Aspergers tend to be more social and aware of themselves and this is a rather touchy area as with other teens. Adults with Aspergers may or may not be viewed as being an Aspie as many adults can "mask" the issue by acting as how others behave or doing what needs to be done. Normally adults are seen as normal yet "off" but this alone is normal as they have Aspergers.
What is the core difference between autism and aspergers syndrome?
Asperger is different from autism because people with Aspergers are less restricted with behavioral interactions than those with autism.
