Having a dx of Aspberger's would be helpful for your daughter as far as getting her the help she may need.

As a teacher and mother, I am in agreement with you about not wanting to label children. I think it often does more harm than good. However, I also see some students who are not getting all they need to be successful. And that makes me sad. I have one student who has Aspberger's and has difficulty self regulating. He is always in trouble wit his teachers and he would so benefit from social skills classes where he could learn more techniques for self-help.

So, I would look at my child and if there are areas where he/she is not as successful as I thought she should be then I would consider the dx if it would get her the help she needs.

Peace
