[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 473674, member: 11791"] We always shared the diagnosis... IF we felt it was accurate. Sometimes, the diagnosis doesn't seem to fit - we didn't share those, but rather the specific traits that were being noticed (social skills, for example). In sharing the diagnosis, we've been fortunate enough to be dealing with ones where there is a positive side as well as a down-side. We talk about all sides of these... and about where extra effort is required, and where accommodations can help and why, and so on. We found this a great tool in combatting the anxiety and depression that so often come as secondary dxes due to the stress and strain of not understanding themselves and not being heard/understood/validated in real life.
