My younger child has just turned 12. I have thought for some time that there has been something not quite right with her attitude and behaviour (since she was about a year). I am beginning to wonder whether she has undiagnosed Aspergers and wonder if there is anyone in the community I could maybe chat with in the same position or with a child of this age just diagnosed. She has just been referred to CAMHS who say there is nothing in her behaviour to warrant them getting involved and have referred me to our Early Intervention Hub for help. She has already been down this route without success.
