[quote=Anonymous]Expect that your DC could have a rocky social or academic start. That's normal. But realize that starting MS can be a high stress transition point, and that a child with learning or mental health issues may not be able to compensate for the first time. If things aren't getting better after the first grading period or first semester, consider testing and/or intervention. We ended up with a new ADHD diagnosis November of 7th grade, which is apparently pretty common. Our psychologist said a new anxiety (or to a lesser extent depression) diagnosis also happens a lot.
