IQ scores weren't even close to what was anticipated. Processing speed was an issue. Dr gave an unspecified ADHD diagnosis w/ possible red flag for LD. Wants to test again in two years. She said she couldn't be sure if the issues were sensory or ADHD. She was afraid he would have issues with comprehension and processing info. He does have distraction issues but he learns things very rapidly. He is advancing in his reading skills very rapidly and remembers what he reads. He has us write sentences each night for us to read. Sometimes he remembers exactly what we wrote the night before. His teacher has even remarked on how he is one of the best readers in he class.
I expressly told her that DS told me he didn't want to do the test and that he told me he wanted to play with toys and stop the testing. She refused to acknowledge the hour and a half car ride then a long waiting room wait as an issue. She doesn't even consider his lack of desire to cooperate an issue!
They say that children score between 5-10 points on IQ tests of parents and husband and I were both on the higher to much higher end academically. In no way do we believe this is an accurate representation of our child. Now what?
