[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 551505, member: 11791"] Oh boy. There's a whole raft of things that cause motor skills issues - and around here, other than sensory processing disorder (SPD), an Occupational Therapist (OT) doesn't give a diagnosis. But they do a raft of testing - a whole range of tests. Our Occupational Therapist (OT) took something like 4 hours, and that was just motor skills (included some sensory, but not a full suite of tests on that front - that would have taken another 2-3 hours). However... if you want to do some interesting reading, check out [URL="http://www.canchild.ca"]www.canchild.ca[/URL], and specifically look for Developmental Coordination Disorder. Given that half the kids with an ADHD diagnosis also have Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD)... the chances are fairly high. Not unusual for Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) to look like other stuff. [/QUOTE]
