So is there any actual difference between "high functioning", I believe that's what people say instead, and aspergers, or is it just a relabeling for the sake of shaking that gross connection? its definitely a better term than Aspergers, but a lot of the community dont care for that particular label as it boils autism down to a scale of high/low functioning when the reality is more complex though.
