well I have 2 children, my first is an absolutely perfect high achieving gerber baby - she is now almost 17 and still delightful (for the most part smile) and I have a 13 year old son who is brilliant, energetic loving and diagnosised with Aspbergers. He takes for meds- ritilin, risperdal (a mild sedative for aggression), serzone (anti-despressant) and digestive enzymes and allergy meds, He still has trouble when his meds wear off being gentle with our pets, however what I thought I would share is that my daughter was just shy of 5 when my son was born and we experience the classic post baby syndrome- oh my - you wouldnt believe what a monster child she transformed into- refused to sleep- I am a preschool teacher and believe my I tried everything- consistent schedule- books at bedtime- stay the coarse- I would even lay with her when she refused to stay in bed or in her room- she screamed kicked, hit from 8pm well past midnight for several weeks. Now if she had that much trouble processing the whole sibling thing- I can only imagine how difficult it is for autistic kids. And angelic as she is today- her education goals include completing a criminal justice program because she is an expert on collecting evidence against her brother! -meme
