[QUOTE="mamabear01, post: 274128, member: 7387"] Oh I absolutely agree with you! But see people arn't seeing what I am seeing, and I'm sure you know, once you understand the spectrum, you have your radar up lol. Hell I can diagnosis someone in target LOL. Just kidding. I know if he was diagnosis'd he would be an Aspie, not really classic. He is very very bright and the things I see are hard to see from an unfamiliar person. But I see them and would love to get him in, but my daughter's against it saying nothing's wrong with him. Well nothing is wrong, he's just going to have some challenges that get harder and harder to deal with the older he gets. Thats just that. I also know that many kids on the spectrum do get mis-diagnosis'd with ADHD, and then later get the Aspie/Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified diagnosis which really is more accurate. I'm hoping that when he hits kindy, and the school gets frustrated with his "ADHD" then I can naturally lead her to my doctor (he's an NP that also does therapy) and he can gently let her know if I am correct with what I see. Anyway, even tho she's my daughter, there is that confidentialty thing between us and Docs. We share the same Pediatrician and I might just casually drop some hints on what I see, but I can't just go busting in there with this. I kinda gotta do it carefully, so as I can get him some help, but don't ruin my daughter's and my relationship. So it's a work in progress. ONe things for sure is I won't let it go. [/QUOTE]
