[quote=Anonymous]I have a lot of empathy for your situation OP. For some kids getting a diagnosis is helpful and eye opening but for others it can go the other way. Almost everyone on this board will tell you more information is better but personally I think you already know his challenges and he knows his challenges so I'm not really sure how a diagnosis could help with practical matters. What does he think of having ADHD? Is he one of those kids who embraces his differences and talks about it openly or is it something that is more difficult for him to acknowledge? Has he ever suspected himself of having ASD and wanting to get tested? Since he's in 10th I would ask him his opinion and let my child guide me. [/quote]
