[QUOTE="BemLmum3, post: 294294"] Wow, I came here for support and now feel like I am having to defend myself. I never said that I was against correct diagnosis, I said an added diagnosis was not priority. My priority right now is helping my child with his symptoms. I was really just looking for some advice from other parent's who have kid's that have a hard time calming down from overstimulation. I do not feel like my difficult child 1 is going to learn just from watching other kids. This is the reason I posted to begin with. I also mentioned I would look into private social skills classes, that that was a good idea. I actually have a background and education in child development and have since then educated myself on all the childhood disorders. And yes my ultimate goal is to help my kids become independent, responsible adults. I realize and want, just like any other parent, for my children to be able to leave home. difficult child has had alot of early intervention through ECI and then private therapy in speech and Occupational Therapist (OT) area's. I simply was looking for some activities we could do at home and small social situtations that might be helpful. Thanks for your input but I think I will look for a more supportive group to join, this one is not agood fit for me. I really do not like words being put in my mouth, like I am against diagnosis and help for my son. He has been evaluated by 3 different professionals who all agree on his diagnosis. I also realize Asperger's is sometimes not diagnosis until kids are 9. With that being said I am off to find some real support. [/QUOTE]
