[QUOTE="SRL, post: 64830, member: 701"] There are scores of parents coming through here and especially on the General board where many people post it's hard for those who reply to remember specific details about a child and their diagnosis. Omitting Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified from your profile may help because most people here (and I suspect elsewhere) do typcially equate that with Autism. The more different your child is from those more typically represented here, the more important it is to represent that clearly in the profile. Very occasionally we do have kids come through here that are different enough that few of us can relate to but that is rare (and often there is something neurologically unusual going on in those cases). It's often hard for us to help parents in those circumstances except by being a listening ear. If that's your situation and you aren't finding the advice here helpful but you need to vent, it would be good to just state in your post you are venting and aren't really looking for advice right now. As always, take what is helpful to you and ignore the rest. You're the parent and know your child best. [/QUOTE]
