Thankfully I knew through my ex-wife someone with Asperger's. I certainly wouldn't call him lazy. So I know not to generically label anyone with Asperger's as lazy. It's just how Anne is.

And that also goes to show peoples ignorance of Asperger's. It's not a one-size fits all. People have it to differing degrees. Has Anne helped bring awareness, yes. Has she helped people see her in a different light, sure. I didn't know she had it and now I know I can see that behaviour come through on The Case. I always found it a bit rude, now I'll be more tolerant.
