There is also a strong correlation between people drinking alcohol and alcoholics - so does that mean everybody who has a drink is a alcoholic!

He may have Asperger's syndrome, but I am sick and tired of everybody trying to put people with disability down, or saying well done he has done all of this despite having a disability. To him he is just him, doing what he wants to get on in life and enjoy his life, there will be things holding him back but he will work around them.

Professionals are usually the worst for this, writing/saying comments in such a condescending manor and wording things like they have done well despite x y and z going against them - Rather than just saying well done youve done well for yourself, usually because it gives there ego's a boost rather than being a genuine comment.

A little background on me, I was diagnosed with Charcot Marie Tooth syndrome / disease call it what you will at 15, I have 2 brothers with Mucopolysacchride 3 (Sanfilippo) and helped to care for them growing up. Was a runner up in Gtr Manchester Young Citizen of the year 1998 and I now run a very small company and work rediculous hours to keep a roof over my head and every time I meet professionals I get the same attitude you have, trying to big up your own ego with a diagnosis and saying he has done well for himself. I was misdiagnosed because of a small minded doctor who only took the one element (toe walking) into consideration because of a strong correlation... it wasnt until one of the top orthopeadic surgeons in the uk took a look at the bigger picture and questioned everything that had gone before diagnosis wise form some of the top othopeadic consultants that a true diagnosis occured.
