[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would think with so many professionals at schools today -- counselors, psychologists, social workers -- someone would have noticed and advised parents. I'd certainly be put off if a "friend" would try to diagnose my kids. [/quote] Not with girls. I’ve “diagnosed” so many of my friends kids and had them ask the school or doctors, who eventually confirmed my hunch. I have adhd myself so I usually come from that personal piece, so many that’s why friends haven’t been mad at me about it? My best friends 15 yr old was one. She was finally diagnosed on the spectrum this year and it answered every issue she had been having. It changed her whole life. Not bc there was any life changing therapy she got but bc people stopped taking her autistic behaviors the wrong way. People stopped taking her social gaffs personally. [/quote]
