[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, we don't talk about my child's diagnosis except to say he has xxx delays or trouble in xxx.  Why?  People like you.  I would be horrified if I read what you posted about my family on this message board.  They have difficult enough lives without you spewing it everywhere.

There could be many reasons why they refuse the autism diagnosis, including it is not the proper diagnosis.

You would not know my child is in services.  We do them all outside school after school hours.  Its no ones business.  You would never know he was in intensive services from 3-5 either as we deliberately kept him out of the public school realm because of people like you.  If he improved, we didn't want any labels to carry.  Sure enough, he has improved.  We are looking at public school and asked to speak to the school to see if he would qualify and how to make the best transition.  They told us they would not look at anything prior to the first day of school and basically tuff luck.  Am I going to give all his past evaluations, etc... absolutely not.  Let them figure it out and we will continue to use private services and tutor at home.

Some kids don't start talking till 4-5-6-7 and are just fine.

Educational neglect is if the parents do not homeschool or send their kids to school.  Refusing an IEP is not neglect.[/quote]

OP here, nowhere in my post is there any identifiable information about the family nor have I ever talked to other families behind their back.  This is an anonymous forum.  I am not 'spewing' anything. Please do not blame 'people like me' for your decision not to disclose. That is utter BS. [/quote]
