[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think people see ADHD in the same way which is interesting because a decade ago people were talking about overdx of ADHD. I think one thing that makes ASD such a trigger is the social issues, though kids with ADHD can have social issues too. Even though many kids with ASD are getting the right help and can and do form friendships we all want our kids to be connected. I think also people just assume ASD has a poorer prognosis even though just like anything there is such a spectrum and kids with help are moving along the spectrum. To 13:07: I think the paranoia about delays in general comes from the fact so much research supports brain plasticity theory and the earlier kids receive intervention the better. A lot of parents regret that they didn't push harder for a dx (of any kind) and services and wonder "what if" with regard to really early intervention. [/quote] Well said. I agree completely.
