[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a therapist suggest an evaluation for my child but they did not say what they suspected. My guess is autism, but I wonder why they didn't just say that? When we call for the evaluation they seem to want to know what our concern is, and I am even less qualified to make that assessment than the initial provider.[/quote] Of course they cannot mention a diagnosis. But you can ask the therapist to tell you the behaviors/areas of concern that led them to say that and that's the info you relay to the other provider.[/quote]
