    That's an interesting question. I'm curious as to why you would ask it. I'll try to give you some of my input. I feel that it would be very helpful n the long run. The sooner any person's needs are addressed in this area, the better off they are. Still you must be careful to see a competent physician and to get a second opinion. Early intervention is so important with any disorder.

    If a child is labeled as schizophrenic by their peers, this could create problems for them. People who don't struggle with these things are intolerant and uncomfortable around the mentally ill and could create some problems by teasing and tormenting them. Unfortunately, some adults even engage in this ignorant behavior. My son is autistic. He has had teachers who tend to put him in the same category as other children with this disorder. They just expect him to misbehave. Any time someone blames something on him, these teachers automatically believe the person who is doing the blaming. It's unfortunate but it happens. I can see the pros and cons of this scenario,.
