[QUOTE="klmno, post: 145199, member: 3699"] Heather: No, the ed. spec. has no credentials that make me think her diagnosis would be better than the psychiatrists. One psychiatric (from the MDE evaluation) did diagnosis difficult child with Adjustment Disorder, but she did it for a reason that she explained to me. She did acknowledge, in writing, that difficult child was cycling and did need to be on a mood stabilizer and she has willingly conferred with difficult child's psychiatrist who has diagnosis'd him with BiPolar (BP). I understand where both of them are coming from and am on board with it. It isn't exactly the same with miss ed spec who flips through a school record, after seeing written proof how inconsistent these reports are made, then making her "own" opinion on diagnosis- did she really think I would throw out the psychiatrists diagnosis? She didn't even mention the neuropsychologist test results that are in difficult child's file as well. Sharon & Heather: Yes, I was more than a little surprised that the comment was made about the teachers' "training", if you want to call it that- and that she actually made that comment to me. Is this what they mean by the saying "give enough rope and..." LOL looking4hope: thanks for the advice & support- and for reminding me that there are some good teachers out there. It gives me hope and comfort to know that some teachers really are willing to do what they can, in spite of some sd's not supporting the goal. Susie- thanks for the links. Every little bit helps! And, thanks for keeping my fire lit- I'm so tired right now and need sleep- this gives me something to look forward to!! Goodnight all! [/QUOTE]
