[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 487221, member: 1024"] Thanks Nancy. I'm glad that your daughter is able to recognize that this kid needs help. I just have to wonder, if he wasn't disruptive, would the school have interest in classifying him? This is what I faced. Missy was always good in school, other than the disorganization and her mild meltdowns (crying) about losing something. School didn't want to do anything, because she was well-behaved at school (She saved her freak outs for when she got home). What makes me more crazy about this whole situ is that I specifically stated to them I didn't want what happened to my friend's son to happen to my daughter. He went all through this same grammar school and struggled. Tho I had hinted for his mom to have school evaluate him, she was in denial. I suspected Aspbergers, but only because I knew the symptoms from dealing with so much of it on this website. Fast forward to him in the 6th grade and he was failing everything (exactly what is happening to Missy now), so the middle school started evaluation process to find him with Aspbergers. He's now in a school for autistic kids and doing really well. So, tho I don't think Missy has Aspbergers, she's in the exact same situation....failing everything and we're back at the evaluation process. Anyway, I spoke with one of my daughter's teachers last night. She knows how much I've been working with my daughter to help her keep up, but she feels that Missy is just too far behind and without pulling her out, she'll never catch up and she is too stressed out in class, because she's so lost.
