[QUOTE="SRL, post: 120826, member: 701"] JJJ, I'm not keen on the CD diagnosis for younger kids because I think it's a diagnostic copout for not finding the real problem. But you should be aware that it did make it into the DSM-IV Text Revision for children of younger ages and we've started to see it reported by parents. So in the professional sense it is a legitimate diagnosis, but we suggest to parents whose kids look like they may get that diagnosis to not sign to authorize that report to be sent anywhere: not schools, pediatrician, etc. then to find another diagnostician.
