[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 201057, member: 1550"] Here if there is a speech delay it is Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified. But that can be high functioning. He sounds very much like a spectrum kid. That "he's so smart" in some areas and "he's clueless" in others is so typical as is the school's interest in labeling the child MR, when he likely just needs a different kind of testing. To me it sounds way beyond ADHD, even if ADHD IS on the spectrum. It sounds like Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) to me. Course I'm just the mom of an ASDer. [/QUOTE]
