I think Aspergers is part of Autism which is part of neurodiversity. I hope in the future children will be routinely supported for neurodivergence and neurodiversity will just be like having brown eyes or ginger hair. No big deal just another part of life. And people will say so and so needs the lights dimmer because they feel bright lights are painful and they'll all be cool about it. The term Aspergers is problematic because Hans Asperger was a nazi but I think if people are diagnosed Aspergers they can identify as having Aspergers or being an Aspie. Personally I am not offended by that. I was diagnosed as having ASD because Aspergers had been taken out of the DSMV by the time I was diagnosed. I identify as being autistic.
