I agree blackcat, about teachers just tossing out the problems but not suggesting any strategies or solutions. We did meet with this pediatrician about a year ago. It was a long visit, 1.5 hours. He monitored DS, we brought checklists and papers. He talked with DS for a good while, asked lots of questions, and then decided he was not autistic. He said he could qualify for aspergers, but mild.
I think his ADD likes symptoms are a result of his OEs. His psychomotor OE is strong. He moves constantly, even while reading! He is also very intense. I would agree with sensory issues as well.
We are considering an outside evaluation versus the school one due to my hubs concerns of what he would like to share with the school.
