I am worried this may keep some parents from searching for help for their children (be it Asperger's or anything else) because they will be worried their children will be labeled and everyone will be scared of them. ... Do I really want to got through all the possible Autism evaluations we have ahead of us for DS2.8 when in the end others around us may think he (just like his brother) is some sort of 'freak' that can at any point snap and kill everyone around? That's so NOT like my kids!

so, yes, what the media is doing here is scaring the heck out of me!
