[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 94398, member: 1550"] The school likely doesn't know Aspergers from a hole in the wall. I would never trust anyone associated with the SD to diagnose my son. Even the psycologists don't seem to "get it." My biggest, most heartfelt recommendation is to see a private neuropsychologist, even though they have long waiting lists. You can find them at Children's and University Hospitals. I wouldn't trust one affiliated with the school district. They have an agenda. in my opinion private NeuroPsychs are the only ones that take the time and do the testing to sort out the child's problems so that they are pointed in the right direction. By the way, Aspergers is Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) without a speech delay. If there was a speech delay, I am told, then the child is Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified (atypical autism). My Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified son was misdiagnosed and wrongly medicated for both ADHD/ODD and then bipolar. He is clearly Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). It is amazing how nobody believed me when I kept asking about it, which made me doubt myself. I'm going to post a test from Childbrain. It is a test for any sort of Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) (Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified, Aspergers or Classical Autism).
