[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 7736, member: 1722"] Some doctors are leery about giving a diagnosis in a young child as many behaviors could seemingly be considered developmentally appropriate. Smallworld is right that they look the child's total development to come up with a working diagnosis. What that means is that the treatment will be coded as such-and-such a diagnosis for insurance and also to seek early intervention services from the school district. Most parent's find that their children's diagnosis changes as their child grows and matures. One thing you can do to be well prepared for an evaluation is write up a parent report, this way all evaluators have your son's pertinent info at their finger tips. [/QUOTE]
