[quote=Anonymous]What kind of things are you worried about? We've had teachers suggest testing to us when our kid was 7 and 8. We didn't feel there was anything greatly wrong with him. In fact, socially he is doing great. He's just not that switched on at school (lack of interest, which then leads to gaps in knowledge and under-performance). We thought it was not far outside of the ordinary, so we ignored the advice for expensive testing (especially without any clear idea of what we might be looking for) and just spent more time with him on school work and general development (board games, etc.). We are now more convinced than ever that there was no need for the $3000+ testing. I think it has gotten a bit out of hand here, really. More than half of the boys I know have had some kind of testing like this.[/quote]
