[quote=Anonymous]You can't claim that diagnosis is highly subjective, PP. The grad student's "imprinting" theory is just that a [i]theory[/i] not proof and based on just 3 clinics--out of how many in the U.S. that exist? It's not surprising that clinics that specialize in autism actually give autism diagnoses. You're not getting a neutral sample--parents were seeking help for their kids. Who's to say these kids don't have autism or wouldn't get the same diagnosis somewhere else? I'm sorry you're so bitter over your kid's initial autism diagnosis. I hope you find peace with it some day and find some gratitude in your heart for the developmental pediatrician who diagnosed your son.[/quote]
