[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 41912, member: 1991"] Good point, MWM. Basically, all we've done so far is describe what we've experienced under what we've been told is ADD. But to assume that what you see is the same thing - you could be missing something else that needs a different approach. If what people have been sharing rings a bell with you, then it is definitely worth asking whoever you take your child to see. Sometimes parental suspicions are what kick-starts a diagnosis. I know for us, we were getting nowhere with difficult child 3 until I did some reading and shared what I found with the GP, who then agreed with my hunch and made the appropriate referral. That is your next step. maybe? Or have you already been there and are just looking for comparisons? If you haven't yet had an expert assessment done for easy child, sit and make some notes. List your concerns, your observations and your suspicions and from there, ask maybe difficult child's doctor for an opinion and a referral, if he thinks it's appropriate. Marg [/QUOTE]
