[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 379641"] Another fellow Ontarian giving you a big, warm and fuzzy welcome (NOR actually, Northern Ontario Res). I know what you mean about the wait times. I've spent almost 2 years with my 4.5 year old trying to get her on the medications they recc and yet still I am on a wait list for the very limited pedi docs we have here. In fact the pedi doctor comes in from Sudbury for his patients. 2 long years.... It's nuts, my oldest is also ADHD\Sensory Integration Disorder (SID)\ODD with learning difficulties and possible dyslexia. Still waiting for even a mention of medications. He's in counselling which is somewhat helping but he's hit a bit a plateau with the counselling now. It's been about 2 years for him too since he started the assessments and going through the testing. My 6 year old is just starting out!! Is that going to be another 2 years I wonder? At least the school is putting him in the SPED class without the testing in place (6 year old) right away and doing an IEP\BIP for both boys. I recently had a tiff with this school (3rd day in for my autistic daughter) about her poor treatment and the teacher saying that she only wanted her there for 1 hr 45 minutes a day, that was all the teacher could apparently "handle" of my daughter. PFfft...so now she's transferring to a school for exceptional children an hour away from us... *sigh* I know how you feel...all too well. We're right there with you! [/QUOTE]
