[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would you not get him evaluated? What is the negative. You'll either find out you're right and can act accordingly to get him help or it will put your mind at ease. [/quote] This, I never understand why parents don't do it.[/quote] Er, money. OP, if you have the bucks to pay out of pocket then go for it. It will be $3-4K out of pocket. Since the lack of organization, isn't having a huge academic impact, I doubt you can get the public school to test him. Plus, the public school may or may not give you accommodations even if there are issues found in the private evaluation. It will take some weeks/months to schedule something private. If you decide to go this route, work on his homework/educational skills in the meantime and see what happens.[/quote]
