No offense but that is not what Asperger's is. Quack therapists may be misdiagnosing people and calling attitude problems by that name but in no way is Asperger's an attitude issue. Think of Sheldon on Big Bang Theory, that's a loose represnetation of Asperger's Syndrome. Look it up.


Highly intelligent, but socially awkward have always been the classic description of someone with Aspergers. I worked with someone diagnosed with it, very nice person, but took a little while to figure out how to communicate, just like Sheldon they took everything literally, and were just confused by sarcasm.

Is "The Good Doctor" another one with Aspergers? I understand it is a real diagnosis but I hate the Hollywood fetishization of the condition.
