[quote=Anonymous]You’re not alone. We don’t even have the official diagnosis yet (waiting on report) that will seemingly confirm ASD-1. I’ve also weighed the reality of access to specialists, etc. DH and I have not made an official decision but are coming to terms with moving to a different area all together that will be less expensive to have an adult child live at home. I haven’t even looked into disability services, but DMV is a very high pressure area. It has public transportation, but it seems like a less intense area will be easier. If MCPS is any indication of not granting IEPs, I’d rather be in a county where clinicians accept insurance and COLA is less. However, this might be part parental in that it’s hard watching neighbors wise kids graduate high school and go to college. Seems easier starting over, and putting the trauma of a system that kept telling us out kid was fine since K and who can’t even attend high school. [/quote]
