I should also say ... If you son dos have AS, a regular medical doctor won't do much to help your son. We took our son to a psychologist who provided the diagnosis, but there wasn't much she could do beyond that.

I would strongly suggest you discuss AS with someone at your son's school. I've found my son's teachers and special ed folks to be VERY helpful and understanding.

I should also say that there appears to be a very wide spectrum for AS. My son gets by pretty well, but I had another boy with AS in my son's Cub Scout den, and he really struggled. I've read about another boy with AS that simply couldn't function on his own - his mother had to be with him 24/7.
