[QUOTE="whatamess, post: 533399, member: 7664"] Giulia, you are persistent, but with good intentions I can tell. I feel and I suspect others on this board feel similarly, that there are very few textbook educated professionals who can even come close to understanding our situations. Give diagnoses, prescribe medicine, order tests...yes... truly "get" the day-in and day-out of our lives...not so much. We come here to be with people who have the same experiences as parents and caregivers to difficult child children. Before I had my children I studied psychology in school and was fascinated by diagnosis's and case studies, so I can understand your drive to understand and offer help, but that might be best accomplished, more respectfully accomplished by your being a passive reader instead of a detective. If you find you have a valuable insight after reading (without asking clarifying questions), then I think you should share that. Just know that you are attempting to cross over a line on this caregiver's support site to give advice from a perspective that is not given the same weight as parents who are actually living the experience with their difficult child's.
