Aspergers [] Aspergers #2 []

If you were to look at Tim Wing you wouldn’t really think much except for the fact that he is a big guy. He is 6’2” and almost 300 pounds. He has dark hair, a scraggly little beard, and amazing hazel colored eyes. But once you get to know him you’d realize there is much more behind him. If you were to have a conversation with Tim you will realize that he is not normal. When he talks to people he doesn’t look at them directly in the eyes, if he decides to have conversation at all. Most of the time when he’s at school he will be playing video games in his room. He is a very intelligent person, but can’t concentrate enough on his work or really wants to do it. He would rather play his Xbox because he’s very interested in it. Tim was recently diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome. Asperger’s is described as autism spectrum disorder.

Reference
It is described by some as a social retardation. They have an extremely hard time communicating with people and are very immature for their age. They generally get along with people who are much younger than them. For example Tim is 17 years old and gets along better with children who are nine years old than he does kids his own age, because of his immaturity. In this paper I am going to discuss the side effects of Asperger’s from children to teens to adults.
