He was born with it, is't some sort of "glich" right at the making..
Here in Sweden about 4-5 kids each year gets the diagnose.
Seems to be a rather big difference on how "severe" it gets, some pepole develop sever autism and ADHD (is that a US term as well ?) others has a lower IQ 45-60. Also oversensitive hearing (reacts on load noices) is a problem as well as they gets VERY scared of harmless things.
Our son as a HUGH problem with the icecream van, but he loves icecream (who doesnt..) Also WS children need loads and loads of repetion to learn stuff.
Now its just a matter for us to understand how we can help him in the best possible way, and take one small step at the time and also enjoy the things he can do and not only focus on the "problem areas".
