[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 499480, member: 11847"] A lot of help, as usual. To clarifiy: an other psychologist had done the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) testing back in september. I do have the results in written. She did the following: ADOS-3 Childhood Autism Rating Scale- standard version Childhood Autism scale- questionnaire for parents. On the ados, he as only 1 point in the social categorie. This point is related to asking for information, quality of social overtures (most were restricted to personal demands/interests) and repetitive reference to specific topics. Reminder: Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) cut-off is 7points. Total score for the SCAR2 is 21 (30 being the cut-off for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)). His score was slightly elevetated with regards relating to people, emotional response, management of change, listening responses and activity level. The tester was a psychologist at the Masters level. I actual e-mailed her and very politely asked if there were any chances her testings could have missed some atypical form of Autism. She replied that, after looking at the scores again, she really does not believe it is any form of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). But she said she was only human and a second opinion might indeed come up with different observations and scores. That I should not hesitate with a second opinion if I was not 100% comfortable with results. After talking to Teachh, I now know that their waiting list is about 12 months! That is very long. I will put V on the waiting list and patiently wait for a second opinion. We have some very good information (language and anxiety) to start working with. It should be enough for now. Ok, next battle: the school! I think I will be visiting the Special Education forum quite a bit. LOL [/QUOTE]
