[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not a huge fan of labeling kids either. I have an SN kid who probably has an autism diagnosis. I like to deal with the issues as an individual thing rather than label my child.[/quote] I'm the mom fyi. I use the diagnosis to get services but refuse to describe my child as his diagnosis[/quote] Autism is a keyword for insurance billing purpose. Insurance won't cover Speech Therapy if the diagnosis is Language Disorder , if the diagnosis is Autism they'll cover. Parents doesn't have to accept autism as the real diagnosis since it's a insurance keyword, but they've to accept their child's deficit (language disorder in this case). Autism diagnosis is a blessing in this case.[/quote]
