[quote=Anonymous]I don't know if this is relevant, but I have an ASD child, and one of the things you hear so much in ASD-world is how under- or un-diagnosed girls are. You only have to go visit a SN school to see how many boys there are and how few girls in the early years. I think this is true of ADHD too - the boys get diagnosed bc they are a problem in the classroom in preschool, and the girls float along till much later. Girls tend to be diagnosed so much later because they present "atypically." Is it really atypical or do girls' needs just look different and we're not used to it? I don't know. None of this may be relevant to your daughter. But it might be something to keep in mind.[/quote]
