[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][[b]quote=Anonymous]^^^ seriously, I still don't know if son has ASD but in our case, "just adhd" is very very hard[/quote][/b] I understand completely and wasn't trying to minimize your situation by saying "just ADHD". I have three kids with varying diagnoses. In my experience at the middle school and upper school level, it is very difficult to get an IEP for ADHD alone at FCPS. One child did not receive even a 504. The child with Asperger's (documented as autism on the paperwork) had comorbidities of ADHD and anxiety and did get an IEP but we really had to fight for it. Also, IMH0, boys are more apt to get the IEPs if they have behaviorial problems no matter what the diagnosis. We caught our DD's Asperger's very late because she was such a good student. Four testers missed it. Girls sometimes fly under the radar, which is unfortunate, because she needed earlier intervention.[/quote] Thank you Poster for understanding. <3[/quote]
