[QUOTE="Snowie, post: 127165, member: 4712"] Thank you all for your warm welcome, I really appreciate it. Midwest - Auditory Processing Disorders (APD) is Auditory Processing Disorder, it is a learning disorder rather than a conduct disorder. Marg - I can't begin to thank you for all your advice. The first thing I want to point out is that the school is nothing but 110% supportive of us and it was the principal's suggestion that ADHD might be the problem and he who has set us on the road to diagnosis. The principal is a very caring man whom I trust and respect. I know he has difficult child 1's best interests at heart and he has been his principal since he was 5 yo. My kids are in the Vic Catholic education system and so accessing services is usually no problem and, trust me, I've demanded a few! LOL The paediatrician didn't actually say a lot about diagnosis, but she gave me a 4 page questionnaire to complete and one for his teacher. By the time we have our next appointment in 3 weeks, an evaluation of the questionnaires should be done. Since the principal suggested it might be ADHD, which had never actually crossed my mind before, I've done a lot of research on the disorder and everything about it explains difficult child 1. His behaviour finally makes sense. He's been seeing the school psychologist for the last year without much progress, so getting anything from her won't be a problem. If he is diagnosed, will he be entitled to a health care card? [/QUOTE]
