[QUOTE="Peace 123, post: 267473, member: 7295"] After your son is evaluated by the IEP team, they will decide if your son is qualify for services. No matter what you have, the disorder has to have impacts on your son's education to qualify him for services. If he is gifted like my son, ADHD plus Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified with an IQ of 147, get good grades, the school did not give him any services even thought he was struggling to complete his classwork and homework. The teachers think that he is lazy. He is so depressed and he started to develope behavior problem. I fught with the school for 3 years to get them evaluate him. He finally did it when he was acting out at school. THen they found that his IQ was 147 with a very slow processing speed. that's why he knows everything before they teach him. but he struggles to do the work on paper. Anyway, before they start or offer any services, they have to classify him. Autism is one of the classifications. It includes Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified, Autism, Asperger, ... They are all grouped under Autism. [/QUOTE]
