[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s like mentioning all the symptoms for a disease but not being allowed to mention the likely disease.  Address only the symptom:  My kid has a sore throat, fever, stuffy nose, etc but you can’t say their kid has a cold or maybe the flu.

“Sore throat” is not a medical diagnosis in the exact same way APD is not.  But hey, Jeff can do whatever he wants.  His board.[/quote]

I don't think being purposefully obtuse makes your case. No where has anyone said you can't say "autism." Or even "have you thought about autism." The problems arise when the questions is asked and answered, but you don't like the answer you got and then make the post about your agenda. I'm sorry, but you are not as smart as you think you are, nor are you somehow saving children with autism by arguing and insulting other parents on here who believe that a formal autism diagnosis is not relevant to their child.[/quote]
Exactly.  In the APD thread,  one poster immediately decided it must be ASD/ADHD even though the OP described zero symptoms of either.  Once she described it, it sounded more like dyslexia.  [/quote]
