Not sure if this has been done, saw it on the TM forums today.

Ill find a link.

Looks like they are tightening up the criteria that could see higher functioning kids (aspergers) failing to meet criteria. This is in the US, not here, thankfully.

is it just the US though? I thought we (NZ) diagnosed to US criteria? Could be totally wrong though.

sad if your child would not then be diagnosed Sad But on the other hand probably good for the more severe kids who might then get more help???
