[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all, every disorder is an attempt to collect things that seem alike under a category to try to understand it.  Just because there's no "biomedical" test doesn't mean it doesn't exist.  There are no blood markers for depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, autism . . . but those things clearly exist. That strikes me as such a stupid thing to say that its not worth even repeating.  And this is a psychotherapist (with what kind of degree?) and not a medical doctor.

The problem with SPD isn;t that there's a collection of symptoms, its that the collection of symptoms are often the result of something else entirely.[/quote]
As the NY Times article confirmed, parents simply don't have time (or don't make time) to implement strong routines during early childhood development. 
That task is most offen delegated to uninformed babysitters or daycare workers. Parents prefer not to waste their "intelegence" on such menial labor. [/quote]

"The New York Times confirmed . . ."  The NYT is not a source of science, they can't confirm this sort of thing. Everything else you wrote is absurd.  SAHM have kids with developmental disorders.  Highly structured homes produce kids with developmental disorders.  I mean, duh . . .[/quote]
Are you missing the point on purpose? Read the article. See the research. Early childhood development is hard work.[/quote]

I don't need to be lectured about how hard it is.  I have two children with SN.  I am a SAHM who has invested an enormous amount of time on my children.  I doubt you would last a day in my circumstances. You really should consider whom you are judging, you are posting in the SN section.[/quote]
