[quote=Anonymous]I was very honest with my son about why he was being tested, in an age appropriate way. (He was in second grade). He was struggling so we told him we were having him evaluated so we could figure out how his brain worked, and that way we could make sure he got the help he needed and also knew what his strengths were. He burst into sobs when we told him what we were doing. At first I thought he was upset or nervous, but once he caught his breath he told us he was crying because he was "relieved." That was almost three years ago and it still makes me well up a little to remember it. [/quote]
