[quote=Anonymous]SPD is a symptom. Sometimes it exists alone, when the criteria for a specific diagnosis aren't met (and there are kids who don;t get a diagnosis, just a list of issues). Most of the time it is a symptom of something. In my experience there are far more children getting this "diagnosis" when there's really something else going on than who just have SPD. OTs are NOT diagnosticians. Yet they diagnosis kids with SPD and then the parents think they have "it" and they stop looking. Plus in my experience OTs see SPD everywhere. I know I was told my DS had SPD when it turns out . . . oops . . . he has an ASD. I also am unaware of any science behind all the swinging and brushing.[/quote]
