Early intervention is the key then.................I thought not :(

That's okay, because provision is based on need not dx, - as we all know.........

I met a family where both of her boys were made to wait until their 7th birthdays before dx would be given. THey were first assessed at 2 :( Eldest at 10 is suicidal :(
