[QUOTE="nvts, post: 66184, member: 3814"] Hi! Our Dept. of Ed did some testing and found our son (difficult child 1) was "profoundly intelligent". After hearing about neuropsychs on this board, I got him in to see a neuropsychologist. They tested him every way from Sunday and interviewed me so intensly that for a while I started to feel like the worst mom in the world because I really couldn't remember all of the milestones (walking, talking, potty training, etc) for all 3 kids (I had 3 in less than 3 years - I couldn't remember my NAME by then!). They are now scheduling testing for read/write disorders for our oldest. He's brilliant, but hates to read and writes like a 4 year old, can't remember his spelling words at all. I brought a hand-written note with me to show them, and this prompted them to order add'l testing. You can usually get a neuropsychologist evaluation done at a childrens hospital or a research facility (we have one that is a research facility for all mental/ neurological illness). It usually takes a month-6weeks to get in, but it was worth the wait! Beth [/QUOTE]
