I think my 26 year old daughter is on the spectrum. She does not relate well with others and doesn't process language and body language well. I have watched the movie about Temple Grandin and can't help but see the similarities (It's ironic someone mentioned Dr. Grandin. About 5 years ago, I stood behind her and her husband as we were checking into a hotel in Austin, TX). My daughter was supposed to attend a seminar Dr. Grandin presented for dog trainers. However, she had a mental breakdown and my wife and I had to go get her from school.

My daughter is extremely intelligent, but it seems like she lives in her own little world.
