[quote=Anonymous]Kids with ADHD or ASD are not ED. They may have challenging behaviors and emotional outbursts, but there is a neurodevelopmental disability that impairs social interaction. ED categories are intended for individuals with PTSD, trauma, etc. that respond to very different treatment methods. To put folks with an ADHD or ASD diagnosis in an ED program is wrong and would likely make behaviors worse. If they can't access the curriculum in a general ed classroom with support, then they should be in a specially designed autism or non-cat classroom with an appropriate level of academic challenge.[/quote]
