I'm taking DS6 to a neuropsych starting tomorrow for a full psychoeducational assessment and it just dawned on me that I have no idea how to present this to him. We've only ever peripherally suggested to him from time to time that there might be something a bit different about him and generally, I think he has a sense that he's different from most kids. But I haven't broached the subject of testing! Now I'm wondering what I tell him. I don't want to tell him that it's to test his intelligence and certainly not because we suspect he might be gifted. So then what? Any ideas? Anything would be appreciated!
