[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The teacher should not be diagnosing or recommending a diagnosis. Parent should not have to pay extra for a rule out when school and private evaluation need to look at the behavioral issues and where they are coming from, including mental health issues or poor school/classroom fit.[/quote] Exactly. teacher can suggest there are issues that need an evaluation, but should not suggest autism. Let actual professionals do a differential diagnosis.[/quote] The teacher is not. She's filling out the GARs. That's part of the school's evaluation and parents will fill out this checklist too. The school will say they don't match and suggest the autism label. So op can accept it or not. That's the way it works.[/quote]
