What's wrong with my daughter?

What the teachers are hinting at are not behavioral disorders... they are processing disorders. It sounds like an auditory processing disorder (she hears information, but has problems immediately understanding what is being asked of her and responding). Talk to your pediatrician and ask for a referral to a pediatric neuropsychologist. You can get more information on the specialty at www.div40.org (they have a good parent's guide pamphlet). If your insurance won't pay for it, an evaluation, report, and suggestions for follow-up modifications can cost upwards of $4000, so going through the pediatrician or school district are your best options. Please remember that teachers cannot diagnose, but we are really good at working on an IEP and working with doctors and parents to follow specific suggestions to modify the way we teach so that your child can get the most from her education.

My son had the same problem and I took him to Dr. Bader M.D. she is the head doctor of Northeast Indiana Genetic Counseling Center here in Fort Wayne. Thats all I can say. Good luck

Take her to a specialist.. call around and find out where she can be seen is the best info I can give you

Talk to her pediatrician, they can help as well as be able to recommend a specialist (if needed) to talk to you and help you as well.
