[QUOTE="Malika, post: 483332, member: 11227"] Well, I guess "they" don't start doing it - you have to initiate and push for interventions (but that's probably true everywhere) and they can start as young as you like, really. J has so far seen a child psychiatrist in the public sector (she said she was almost certain he had ADHD, but really just on the basis of seeing him a couple of times), a child psychiatrist in the private sector (who said he was hyperactive but not attention deficit), "psychomotricien" (movement psychologist - who said he had some signs of ADHD but none of the attention or concentration problems), a speech therapist (who said he was basically normal for his age), a school psychologist (who said he was normal for his age), a neuro-psychologist (who just gave the IQ test for young children, according to which his IQ is normal with some red flags over visual-spatial reasoning) and a butcher, a baker and a candlestick maker. No, just joking about the last three... The psychomotricien is going to consult with the child psychiatrist and possibly recommend interventions after that. Oh, and I rang an Occupational Therapist (OT) who hasn't responded yet... [/QUOTE]
