[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC has those diagnoses, asd, adhd, pda, anxiety and sensory issues. He masks at school and craves novelty so loves visiting his cousins and behaves (somewhat) unproblematically there. So no one sees it but us at home. Or maybe we're just lousy parents. [/quote] I mean … I don’t think you are lousy parents but I also don’t think a child can “mask” to that extent. [/quote] If he'd been born earlier, I think it would have been harder for the school to ignore him and deny our request for a 504/IEP. Post-pandemic, the fact that he goes to the clinic frequently, uses the restroom multiple times a day, and is visited by the school counselor are just lost in the noise of out of control kids and tired teachers. ADHD meds really help. And he does better in a group where he can follow along and do the same thing that everyone else is doing. He no longer hides under tables so it's fine.[/quote]
