marytheres - I am NOT saying your son has either ADD or PDD, but I am a parent that dealt with the all the "symptom" issues first (dyslexia, SPD, hypotonia, etc) and then realised all the remediation had helped a lot BUT it still wasn't enough and that she still had issues/differences, which in some ways were easier for me to see after peeling back the overt surface issues. Only problem was I had a really hard time getting my DD the Aspergers diagnosis she really needed because I had already don't so many of the things that they would immediately recommend and they HAD helped. Again I am not trying to diagnose your child, I am just saying I wish someone had told me not to put the cart before the horse. That often "lesser" issues are part of a more over arching neurological difference and you are better off starting with the primary issue.
