Hello, New to group and the possible diagnosis

[Guest guest]

Sorry this will be long! We have struggled with ADHD with my 11 year old son Ben

since he was 6. He is classis ADHD but still there has been more to it. We have

been in private school and man have we fought the sytem all the way. We recently

have asked for and gone to a devlopmental Pediatritian and Delopmental

Psychologist and the Pediatritian has mentioned Aspergers and gave me a book to

look at while they did testing. OH MY GOSH! This was may son. It made me cry

with examples given that the teachers had been trying tosay he was doing on

purpose. He was also diagnosed with anxiety disorder. He is bright and can make

the grades with guidance. We are going to public school next year. Any

suggestions? he does have a few things he will need done in the classroom like

sitting in frontm needing some tests orally and for some reason he cannot

comprehend what is on the blackboard to the paper on his desk so hee will need

to have things written. He knows about his ADHD and I feel we should include him

in anything that is done
