I found the article shown below interesting. Now wondering if more girls are being missed and not accurately diagnosed. Dr. Woeller, would you mind giving your opinion on this?

Kim,
Very interesting article. I think we all know there clearly is a difference between boys and girls for the most part behaviorally and socially. I am sure brain scans would demonstrate some of the reasons why. What I have seen is a definite social impairment that seems equal, but the stereotypical behavior is more common and pronounced in boys. This article definitely fits with my observations over the years.
Sincerely,
Dr. Woeller
