[quote=Anonymous]Again, you are missing the point. School labels are not the same thing as a medical diagnosis. There are only 13 categories by law under which you can get an IEP: There are ONLY 13 categories of special education as defined by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). In order to qualify for special education, the IEP team must determine that a child has one of the following: -Autism -Blindness -Deafness -Emotional Disturbance -Hearing Impairment -Intellectual Disability -Multiple Disabilities -Orthopedic Impairment -Other Health Impaired -Specific Learning Disability -Speech or Language Impairment -Traumatic Brain Injury -Visual Impairment Change the law or change your doctor and stop bitching and moaning about your wrong diagnosis.[/quote]
