[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 218709, member: 1550"] I would go with a neuropsychologist, not a psychiatrist. Too many psychiatrists misdiagnosed my son because they went by my word rather than actual testing. Testing isn't 100% accurate, but it's more accurate than just guessing and watching your kid for an hour. Young kids are hard to diagnose anyway. I'd want the most intensive evaluation available. Aspergers is on the autism spectrum. Many psychiatrists are clueless about it and call it ADHD or bipolar. Be careful. We had that. [/QUOTE]
