I'd recommend adding a "for now" to that statement wink

They might be MG or you might come to realize that that doesn't quite fit. It sounds like you're on this path already but from a BTDT perspective, listen to your gut and be open to course adjustments if needed.

(My BTDT story - we thought DS was MG (tests agreed at the time) and couldn't figure out why nothing that the school was proposing/attempting seemed even remotely appropriate for the kid we knew at home. A couple years later we had to retest to confirm some 2e stuff it was kind of a shocker when he tested much higher. The disconnect between the school's solutions and actual need made a lot more sense with the new results.)
