My son is borderline for Aspergers, but he has never had any sensory issues really.  HE's never had much issue with food, noise, touch (tags, socks), or anything like that.   I read on the main website pages that it's possible my son has a nonverbal learning disability instead of Aspergers - Can you provide more information for me such as a book or other reading materials?

My son can read music but switches around letters when reading (form-from, stop-tops).  Does he have dyslexia?

Was your child diagnosed at a very early age or older age with Autism?   Many doctors are not quick to give a very young child an Autism diagnosis. 

Have you had experiences with this issue?

When students are younger, it's easier to distinguish between students with AS or HFA.   The latter students are more sensory, but generally just as rigid and lacking in social skills (overall).

Did you have difficulty determining if your child with AS or HFA?

Dyslexia is real phenomenon, but generally the best way to problem-solve it is the same way you treat visual-sequential processing deficits.

1) Only view a bit of the page at a time; cover extra sentences or math problems and reduce the visual field.

2) Use colored overlays that you can get at any teacher store, blue seems to be the most often chosen.

3) Have your child's visual tracking checked out by your physician; sometimes it's a physical problem with the eye.
