DS's results are in an I'm quite surprised. I'm now really worried that I didn't interpret the questions properly!
His results are as follows:
Cognitive: 50th centile
Social - Emotional: 2nd centile
Adaptive behaviour: 2nd centile
By definition you can't get much worse than what he scored for Social-Emotional and Adaptve Behaviour but I really don't perceive him as being that badly impaired.
The thing that confuses me is that he's actually a REALLY sociable and interactive little boy. He just goes about things in an unusual way and his preferences are very different from his abilities. For example he is perfectly capable of saying "mummy can you help get my car off the table" but instead he will almost always choose to cry as his fist point of communication.
Do you think that could explain his poor scores? ie the fact that they're a measure of his preferences, not his abilities...
I'm sorry, I don't really know what response I'm looking for... just trying to ramble through my thoughts. Feeling quite guilty and confused... worried that my perception of his behaviour (and hence how I answerwed the questionairre) is worse than he actually is...
