[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 591221, member: 11791"] I hear you. Walked in your shoes - except for the home-schooling. Had a whole list of dxes that kept growing. The problem is... dxes like Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) [I]cannot be given if there is another reason for the motor skills issues[/I] - and that includes Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)/Aspie. But when you get a long list of dxes like this... it can "mask" the umbrella diagnosis. And, unfortunately, it's the umbrella dxes that often get you the interventions, accommodations, therapies, and/or medications. (in our part of the world, it paid to get the others first... because we don't get technology support for an Aspie who can't write... but CAN get it for a kid with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD)... go figure!)
