[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 175121, member: 1550"] We found that Neurologists did NOT have a clue about issues that cause behavioral concerns. We got the brainwave tests, etc. but they didn't know about, say, high functioning autism. Nada. NeuroPsychs do a lot of observation as well as verbal testing. Your son's inability to answer age appropriately would be a clue. His level of imaginative play and ability to transition from activity to activity would be other clues. I would still go with the neuropsychologist. A Behavioral Therapist is hardly an expert on them. If you still feel like that's not a good option, I'd go to a Developmental Pediatrician. I would not listen to the BT. I'd make up my own mind. That's what we did. We went with our own gut when walking the journey of our son. In the end, questioning the professionals was worth it!
