His ASD behaviours are the least prevalent... his major Achilles heel is the "off task" ADHD piece. SUCH a giant thorn that one is.
The "off task" behavior is also an ASD issue: not taking other people's (teachers') priorities as his own, a person with ASD is more likely to not do the predictable or desired thing.

Yup... this is a good example of how similar behaviours can be caused by all three issues. This is interesting, though - would you treat "ASD off task" the same as "ADHD off task?" For my DS the answer appears to be yes (he's pretty flexible and easy to redirect), but that may not be the case for all, depending on the child and the severity of each issue.
