[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 443879, member: 11791"] You'll want to start doing your own research, so you have some idea of the terms of reference likely to be used... Meanwhile, for starters, look up things like: - Central Auditory Processing Disorder (Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD), difficulty processing verbal information - these kids can read and comprehend, but don't "get it" nearly as well when spoken) - verbal and/or language processing disorders (difficulty working with words, both spoken or written) There are ways of getting a diagnosis as an adult - not as familiar with the US system... here (Canada), I'd send you to the nearest learning disabilities association. There are advantages to pursuing this, even after so many years... - he may qualify for supports or protections because of his disability - if it is even remotely related to what your son is dealing with (reasonable probability), it may be information that helps your son deal with the diagnosis in the long run [/QUOTE]
