[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 372958, member: 1991"] I don't know your 10 yo's diagnosis. But a lot of these sort of problems are categorised differently, by different services. For example, our education system here in Australia - in secondary school, autism is categorised as a psychiatric disability. Also behaviour team gets called in. But at college, in tertiary - it is classified as a neurological disability. Very different. And it does affect people's attitudes to you. easy child 2/difficult child 2 is having serious anxiety issues at the moment and had to see the college counsellor (the neurological disabilities person) who recommended she see a therapist. To organise a therapist we had to see the GP who had to organise a Mental Care Plan. So it still gets muddled in together sometimes. But ten - although her problems are neurological (ie borderline Asperger's plus ADD) the current issues are psychological as a consequence. Marg [/QUOTE]
