[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 535369"] Sounds like you're doing all the right things. Once you have the dev. psychiatric and/or neuropsychologist and the Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluations done, go back to the school district and TELL them what was found and demand services. These will also carry over to any school you choose later. The key is getting the right diagnosis and finding all his issues so you can argue with them! That's what I had to do. Now we don't go to that school anymore but I had a darn good IEP before we left. The more outside ammunition, the better. I'm glad you're here too. You are not alone and there is a ton of support here. We are so diverse that there are many different perspectives as well. If you suspect he's on the spectrum, stimulants will not help him. Our motto is "ALWAYS trust your mommy gut regardless of what anyone else says". We were given it for a reason and it is seldom wrong. You're doing a great job and covering all the bases. [/QUOTE]
