[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 533864, member: 7664"] Malika, in what ways has J changed since you first started posting here? In what ways has he stayed the same? I think part of the difficulty in pinning down a problem/diagnosis with J is that he is young and ever-evolving. As an example, some toddlers reveal traits of autism, but pass through them as a stage in development (toe-walking, repetitive behaviors, etc). It is only when the traits are enduring and life-impinging that intervention is warranted. It seems as though J is borderline on some adhd or other traits and he might well pass through them given time. I'm sorry you weren't given answers on your visit. You have found that professionals only glimpse our children's lives and unfortunately if the professional has gotten an impression that is inaccurate you may be hard pressed to change their mind (even if it becomes painfully obvious).
