[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't say anything. [b] They have no right to private medical information about your kid.[/b] The only time this might make sense is if there is some kind of potential for law enforcement to be involved if there is a giant meltdown. But generally for a 6 year old, a meltdown is not going to be mistaken for dangerous aggression.[/quote] I have a kid with Autism and to me it is isn't a private medical condition. It is just a fact and could help others understand. Would you hide that fact that your kid is blind if they bump into you? No. Autism is just one part of your dd's and isn't the whole part of her.[/quote] DP. Disagree. A diagnosis of autism (or ADHD or hearing loss or diabetes or most any diagnosis) is a medical diagnosis and disclosure belongs to the child, not the adult. There's no reason to disclose the information in any of the situations that this thread is discussing. [/quote]
