I posted a couple of weeks ago about my ds (6) behaviour and it was suggested he may have sensory processing disorder, reading more about it, I think that may be the case, the question now is what to do about it?
Do I want a diagnosis and therefore a label? That makes me nervous though not for any good reason that I can articulate.
Do I go to the doctor without him to discuss it? What if the doctor is dismissive? I don't particularly want to take him to a doctor, it somehow doesn't seem fair in some way.
Ideally I'd access a good specialist OT myself to learn the strategies to help him moderate his behaviour, is this even possible?
I've lots of questions running around in my head before he returns for his last year at his great infant school, the school has many children with SEN but I almost feel a fraud for suggesting that this is a SEN.
I'd appreciate any advise or experience please.
