[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 456898, member: 11791"] Has he had a recent Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) evaluation? In particular, I'm thinking of auditory processing problems not related to language... auditory focus/filtering/discrimination - there's lots of terms for it. Its only been on the radar for a couple of years... but its a HUGE problem. Kids with this problem do GREAT in the 1-on-1 situations, because there is no background noise - but in a classroom, they are lost. Most SLPs don't even know about this one yet - you're going to have to fight for it... but if he has this, there are things that help - and without the help, school is hel*. *** but FIRST you have to screen for ADHD - it runs in families, and the specialist audiologist you need to end up with won't even see him if ADHD has not been ruled out, or if he is ADHD and not medicated - because inattention makes it impossible to test for auditory problems *** [/QUOTE]
