[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tell us more about this: I tried turning it all over to him, but he really screwed things up for DC in a way that we are still trying to correct.

Op here. DH is unable to talk about the challenges we have with our child. So when he goes to doctors appointments with DC, instead of describing the problems, he talks about how great DC is.

As a result, when trying to get diagnoses or insurance coverage or support from school in the IEP, I’m battling all this documentation that says DC is GREAT and there are no problems. So for example, when making the case for an ASD diagnosis, the docs are confused because DH has been saying DC is fine at all the appointments.

This has created massive delays in getting medication, diagnosis, therapies, etc.[/quote]

Totally respectfully, this doesn’t make a ton of sense. Wouldn’t you have been there for the evaluation and IEP meetings? You can keep your job and still focus on those important events which happen infrequently. The ASD diagnostic process involves structured interviews of parents and objective observations of the child, so unless your DH was lying, I don’t see how he could have changed things. [/quote]
