[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 212198, member: 3907"] Jal, finding the right diagnosis can make a HUGE difference in your child's ability to have a happy and productive life. I'm relieved for you that you're getting some diagnostic answers so that you can put the right interventions in place for your difficult child. To give you some idea of the lifelong benefit that early intervention can provide... From age 2 to 11, I went to a small school that had a very flexible structure and in-depth programming for children with certain LDs. Purely by accident, all of the interventions and the flexibility of the environment were PERFECT for a little Aspie child. For example, you could sit on a beanbag chair or the floor or a little rug to do your work, rather than at a desk. All assignments due that day were written on the board first thing in the morning. You could choose when to do what thing as long as they all got done...etc. Throughout my teens and adulthood, I've been able to "pass for normal" as it were. A bit eccentric, but nothing startling. Those early interventions made a monumental difference in my life. Wishing for good results from the neuropsychologist evaluation. Glad to hear that your team seems to be on the same page.
