[quote=Anonymous]I think you ask a reasonable question. Your child is young and you should consider reassessing at a later point — it seems a bit strange that an eval for low muscle tone resulted in an autism diagnosis. Did they actually do the ADOS? That is, I believe, the gold standard for autism diagnosis. As a parent of a kid with a diagnosis, yes, it actually can be subtle/not too far off other kids behavior. We have had different psychologists over different periods give different diagnoses for our daughter (excluding autism, and finding it). If accommodations are not required, I would seriously consider whether misunderstandings about autism could lead to a rejection at a school where you feel your kid would thrive. [/quote]
