While I understand the hesitation of telling the "true" dx,isn't it better for the parents to know so that we can be able to get whatever our child needs? I am not afraid that he will be plagued with this for his lifetime, I honestly feel that if we can get a handle on whatever it is, we (and he) can learn from this and learn how to cope/manage with whatever is ailing him.
I am also too afraid of the Dr diagnosing without knowing absolutely EVERYTHING that has to do with my son's life. Is that normal?Would something that happened to him when he was 4 (father was basically not around for 2 years after we seperated) be affecting him still?Even though he sees his father regularly now~and they seem to get along fine?
Is that even something that could be able to be figured out? I dunno. Sorry for rambling. My children are my life, and I just want to help.
