[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 497242, member: 11791"] Ditto. Absolutely. Its up to parents to push this... not up to the kid to stonewall against it. Migraines? Well... headaches, in general, not necessarily migraines... can be anxiety-induced. If school is already that messed up, she just can't face it, and the anxiety "protects" her by generating a headache (or stomach ache, nausea, etc.). I'd be pushing for comprehensive evaluations - medical AND school. Don't ask for IEP - ask for full evaluation. AND get private evaluation on top of it. Get to the bottom of EVERY possibility - from LDs to mental health to developmental (adhd is on the lighter end, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) is more complex, and there's lots of related stuff in this department)... Most common "drop off a cliff" points seem to be... starting school, about grade 4, and grade 8/9 (high-school ramp-up). [/QUOTE]
