[quote=Anonymous]Our DD is 6, almost 7. I haven’t read all the posts but I’d say getting tested for things / info to help your child is generally helpful. That said, a neuropsych exam can be so expensive (my understanding). We have done or are doing: school based testing at age 3 to see if she needed accommodations (needed speech); OT; developmental pediatrician and, for a few weeks now, psychiatrist who also does therapy / counseling. I was skeptical about the latter but there are things it’s already helped with. She goes weekly and recently graduated speech therapy. I have ADD and wouldn’t be surprised if she does as well, but we have no diagnosis yet for her various challenges. If teachers are suggesting you have your child checked I think you should, or at least explore other evaluation options. [/quote]
