[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]@16:30  - you are worried about causing anxiety for the parents?????   Who cares... child's well-being is at stake!  By your reasoning, we should stop recommending annual mammograms for women because it might cause them undue anxiety about developing breast cancer....[/quote]

Exactly! As soon as we knew something *could* be wrong (as parents) we just wanted to figure it out one way or another. I can't imagine not wanting to know if your child had an issue. [/quote]

Again, did I ever say I didn't want to know?  No.  Only that having teachers attempt to diagnose causes anxiety.  We would have discussed with our pediatrician anyway (which we did right away) but it would have been less fraught with angst, especially since the school was getting hysterical about this and pushing ever more terms and services and specialists on us without a shred of medical evidence that any of it was needed (it wasn't).  I thought this was a support board?  You all sound awfully judgmental and sanctimonious for a support board.[/quote]
