After a year of wondering if we should go down the assessment route, educational psychologist appointments and waiting to get on the ASC Pathway we finally have an appointment with a paediatrician ( although not until August). Now we have to deal with the reality of it. Not sure what will happen at the appointment - will they want to ask us for background information before hand? Our DD1 doesn't know yet that we are looking to assess her for anything, so don't want to go through her problems in front of her. I hope someone might be able to advise how to discuss the upcoming process with her please? She will be 10 by the time we have to appointment and is very bright so will know she is being assessed. How do I explain that it is actually something that will help her?
