I guess I am more open to the idea that just because I can't see it doesn't mean it's not there because of our son. He is ADD and has a non verbal learning disorder. The ADD was not diagnosed till after 5th grade and the learning disorder wasn't till his Soph year after they did further testing. By then I had a terrible time getting him the help he needed in school because the teachers had already formed an opinion that he was a "bad" kid. Others couldn't understand that just because he didn't limp, had good speech etc that there was anything wrong. Why did he need an IEP and special ed classes???? Trust me just because you can't see it or hear it doesn't mean it's not there.
