Asperger's Syndrome
Asperger's syndrome (AS) is an autism
spectrum disorder. It is milder than
autism but shares some of its symptoms. It is more common
in boys than girls.
An obsessive interest in a single subject is a major symptom of AS. Some children with AS have become experts on dinosaurs, makes and models of cars, even objects as seemingly odd as vacuum cleaners. Their expertise, high level of vocabulary and formal speech patterns make them seem like little professors.
Children with AS have trouble reading social cues and
recognizing other people's feelings. They may have strange
movements or mannerisms. All of these
make it difficult for them to make friends. Problems
with motor skills are also common in children with AS.
They may be late learning to ride a bike or catch a
ball, for example. Treatment focuses on the three main
symptoms: poor communication skills, obsessive or repetitive
routines, and physical clumsiness.
