I didn't ask them what their legal concerns. I figured that I got what we wanted and that was enough.
The speech pathologist doesn't believe that he has an auditory processing disorder and she is on the IEP team. He's hearing impaired and wears a hearing aid, so to me, I don't see that it is a big stretch if you say he has an auditory processing disorder.
She had done her own auditory processing disorder test and said he "tested well." Our audiologist said her test was basically a joke. She tested him in a quiet room alone. The detailed private testing we did was in a soundproof room with an audiologist and involved having him listen in headphones to words while background noise was played- he actually did very poorly which really surprised me.
I guess it highlights that when people get an idea in their head (ie, she thinks he does not have this diagnosis), they will not change it easily.
