This is not an edit or a medical reference; it is an opinion which I feel strongly about and am amazed no one else (that I know of) has expressed.

Asperger's has been defined as: Difficulty with social interactions Restricted interests Desire for sameness Distinctive strengths

Children, mostly, are diagnosed with this syndrome. Doesn't anyone remember childhood? There is only one way children see, hear and label this disorder - ASS BURGERS - they can't help it, they're new to the language and they are unfortunately, but decidedly low on empathy, not yet having many interpersonal interactions.

But as adults, especially those in the medical profession, are, supposedly, beyond this phase and have an abundance of both vocabulary and sensitivity toward other human beings.

Why then do you saddle, let's say, a 12 year old boy, but actually any child with this label? It's a name that will probably be that child's most defining, and self-defining, characteristic - ASS BURGER! This nomenclature can do nothing except work against ameliorating his or her: Difficulty with social interactions Restricted interests Desire for sameness Distinctive strengths      ?????

If don't think this is true; find ten random children, verbally give them the name of this syndrome, let them talk amongst themselves and then listen to their conversation. Then imagine a child being diagnosed with Asperger's interacting with these children ... her peers ... the most influential force of a child's life.

Is Dr. Asperger's ego so large or his influence so strong that the entire medical profession has agreed to tie this albatross around an innocent child neck, to live with, in public for the rest of his/her life???

I believe the name Asperger's Syndrome, does such violence to the spirit and self-esteem, that it is thwarting the human impulse to smile, to enjoy, to work and play well with others ... And so, I implore you, Mr/Ms Medical Profession" ... TEAR DOWN THIS ASS BURGER!
