[QUOTE="JulienSam, post: 146804, member: 4575"] Welcome! You've found a great place for support & information, especially from parents who have been through this. I know most people will refer you to see a neuropschologist, but you should also consider getting a full evaluation from your school district. You're right -- having your son nominated for the Gifted & Talented class as well as the not-emotionally-ready-for-1st-grade class seems contradictory, but a full evaluation could provide some insight into that, as well as what kind of supports could be provided for him. I'd also call the pediatrician back to see what other referrals they can give you since the 1st place they referred you to has such a long wait list. I'm just at the beginning of this journey with my 5 yr old son, so I don't have much advice except check in often & feel free to vent -- we all share so many similar experiences & emotions that we can be good support for one another when it doesn't seem like anyone in Real Life understands. Again, welcome! Julie [/QUOTE]
