[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele]The Special Needs forum has historically been the most supportive and helpful forum on DCUM. But for some time now, many threads seem to repeat the same cycle in which posters ignore the request of the OP and, instead, engage in debates that have been repeated over and over again. The original post gets forgotten as posters argue with each other. So, I want to remind posters of the purpose of this forum:

1) The forum is aimed at providing support for and help to parents of kids with special needs.

2) The forum is not a place for posters to repeatedly engage in the same tired religious wars in defense of or opposition to particular diagnoses, conditions, or treatments.

3) Frankly, I don't understand most of the topics you folks argue about, but the unending debate about MERLD vs ASD has worn out my patience. This is going to have to stop. Posters can choose to refrain from this and similar arguments or I can intervene to block such posters from posting. Either way, I am not going to put up with it anymore.

4) Please remember to focus on the questions being asked with the goal of providing helpful responses to the OP. Don't dispute their diagnosis, don't insult the choices they have made, and don't hijack the thread to discuss your pet issue. Please use the "report" button to alert me to any posts doing these things to that I can deal with them.

Just bumping this up again because it seems to bear repeating a lot lately.[/quote]
