[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In theory the ADOS is supposed to be reliable, so there should not be a huge discrepancy. But it sounds like clinically only one professional sees signs of autism. I do think that's an important piece of information. [/quote] Well it's the therapist who sees him regularly rather than the clinician who tested him for a few day. We all know kids can present differently in different settings. I would follow your gut, op. Your gut was telling you to have the ADOS administered. Personally I think information is useful. I feel bad for kids whose parents put off or refuse testing b/c they are trying to avoid certain diagnoses. I'm glad your kid has you in his corner, op.[/quote]
