[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure anything we paid money for was ever worth it!

Speech? He loved going, though I think he would have aged out of his language issues eventually.

He's two years ahead on math, so I got him his first ever tutor. And he absolutely loves that hour. And it means I no longer have to check in with him on math. So worth every penny!

He had PANDAS on top of everything when he was in K. And PCIT was tremendously helpful while we waited for medication treatment to start working.

Almost everything else we did.... really just brought stress to our lives and had doubtful results. Preschool OT (so stupid - and agree with the above poster that they tell you it's just SPD, and *definitely* not ASD), anxiety therapies (two different providers - so dumb), PANDAS talk therapy (so useless, and shocking in hindsight that they didn't suggest something physiological was going on, given the overnight change in behavior that I reported), social skills (my absolute least favorite - so stressful).

Our happiest, least stressful times are when we go a year without therapies.  He's mostly pretty fine. He's an unusual kid. We kind of have reached the point where we just have to trust that he'll "get there" on his own time, wherever that may be.

I am lucky that my kid is not super depressed, self-hurting etc. Obviously answers could be different then.  [/quote]
