I respect your right to your opinion but I don't see any Asperger qualities in Maria. My grandson has Aspergers as a lot of people her know, so i have first hand knowledge and experience. I have never seen evidence of malevolence in Asperger sufferers. They may lack social skills but have a great sense of right and wrong to the point of the ridiculous. They wont tolerate unfair treatment of anyone to the point where you cannot criticise anyone even if they dont know them. They have a great sense of fairness and justice. The thing with this Syndrome is that it is extremely individualised and each sufferer is at a different level of the spectrum. They may also have other factors like ADHD or anxiety and depression. Be careful of generalisations and sweeping statments.
