Aspergers Syndrome

Socials skills difficulties are a symptom of Aspergers Syndrome. These are a few of the symptoms I have learned about in regards to social situations and social skills difficulties that you should address with a doctor.

1. Difficulty playing in a game situation such as not sharing, not following the rules, or taking turns.

2. Not knowing how to interact (wants to interact but doesn’t know what to do).

3. Will watch others but will not join in. Will stand in the distance and watch or be by themselves.

4. Inability to start up a conversation. Not knowing what to say.

5. Monopolizing a conversation. Not realizing they are not letting others speak.

6. Will not participate in activites that interest others. Only wants to do activities they enjoy.

7. Always has to control the situation. Playing or doing activities has to be done their certain way.

8. Limited ability to see or understand the emotions of others. They may not read the facial cues others give that show how they are feeling.

9. Exhibit behavior that may seem strange or out of place by peers. (Such as choosing games or activities of a younger age group)

10. Are not aware when others react negative to them joining into activities.

11. Will be unaware of inappropriate conversations or actions in a public.
