[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 593963, member: 14557"] I don't live in North America, but that is how it goes here. Well, it is not law, but it is common that young kids will have diagnose of global developmental delay and after they grow older, six or seven, they are re-evaluated and given more specific diagnose that of course depends from kid but can be anything from asperger to LDs to mental retardation. Global developmental delay is just used as working diagnose for certain kids when kid is still so young that anything more accurate is just a guess. It gives services for a kid and time to watch how kid will develop before giving him any narrower diagnose. [/QUOTE]
