I'll grant you that I'm not a Doctor. I saw an amputee in a wheelchair the other day....I can't be sure if he really didn't have legs because I'm not a Doctor....c'mon man

*her=Danielle Jenn was spitting on her hand then using it to smooth down her locks. If she had bad breath, would that make her hair stink?

I guess we'll just have to disagree....I've been around it enough to recognize it, but I'll leave it at that

I don't get why every one is so sure that Ian has Aspergers or Autism... I still do not think it is fair to put a label on him, unless you you access to his medical information.

Cm. I just don't think CBS would make fun of someone with an affliction.

I don't see how they're making fun of him. They would, however, be breaking the law by excluding someone with Autism from being on the show or by revealing that he has it without his blessing

Diagnosing these kinds of problems takes some education and practice and it all has to be evidenced based. Tossing these kinds of things around is moot. and what difference does it make. Your opinion? Well opinions are like body parts, everyone has one, except the amputee that one can identify. Don't you think if it was that easy and anyone could do it these kids would get help sooner.

All I know is that Ian told a story about someone in high school saying he had aspergers & it made him very angry so it's not a label he welcomes.

Ian's brother has posted on survivor sucks. I cannot remember what he confirmed about him. I am kind of old here and the memory is gone. But does it really matter? To me he is just a player on bb like the rest of them. Oh and Dani crazy or not, stalker or not they all give us something to watch and talk about.

Is it Frank and Jenn that are going to have their butts on the block, I assume? I've been on jury duty all day, so just trying to catch up. And by the way, they should make a reality show out of jury duty....I'd watch that!

If AG and her lack of braintrust tried to do a short segment on ADD, autism or aspergers, they would screw it up and make it seem as if Ian is a freak. Be glad they stay as far from it as possible. This is a woman who relies on Jesse for entertainment on a yearly basis. Just my

Labels are not fair to anyone whether they are a heart patient in room 201 or some bright kind who is kind of quirky on TV. A housekeeper in a hospital or an electrician in a mental health facility are around sick people all the time but they are not qualified to diagnose.

To think that Jesse is entertainment, perhaps AG might be in the same category as Danielle.

mom_of_three, I wish I had your faith. I think BB (and most tv) would sell souls if it got a rating point or made a buck. Ian SIGNED A CONTRACT so they will argue 'all's fair...' My guess, based on a huge amount of experience with aspies and other DSM-IV (soon to be V) diagnoses - Ian has Asperger's or another autism spectrum disorder, and has chosen to keep it 'under wraps' perhaps to make sure he got thru the selection process. I suppose he could be an undiagnosed case, who has had just the right type of support and environment to succeed 'on his own' but based on the symptoms he presents with, it's not unreasonable to speculate... (Usually I would NOT speculate, but a HG is 'fair game.' Sorry.)
