[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 443554, member: 11791"] Lots of us around here have been exposed to that theory - and proven it wrong. But I think teachers are TAUGHT to think that way. On top of the other advice already given (no need to repeat), you might want to also start a Parent Report (see site resources). Its a way to hold together all of the notes, observations, evaluations, etc., because you're going to need that info on a regular basis. Parenting challenging kids is a huge job - and no training, either 'before' or 'on-the-job'! What usually works is a combination of... - correct diagnoses (often multiple, and it takes time to get them all) - appropriate supports (various therapies, IEPs at school) - creative thinking - flexibility - some sanity outlets for yourself, etc. - which is part of why you're here! Welcome. Keep us posted as you work through the process... [/QUOTE]
