[quote=Anonymous]We're in the process of having my younger DD's ADHD recognized as a learning disability. It's not automatically seen as such. What was helpful for us was that there are lists of basic life functions (like eating, sleeping, and learning) that the law uses. As a PP said, if your child can't eat the same foods because of textural issues or certain colors, that can be considered disabling because a basic life function (eating) is affected. If your child must have a weighted blanket to sleep, if your child gets upset by noise in the cafeteria at lunch time. Really almost any thing that is part of regular life.[/quote]
