Yes, some are misdiagnosed but to say these disorders do not exist baffles me.
Quoting bi-polarmommy:
sadly, no they wouldnt, they would tell you your kid is just a brat and you need to disipline him more
people who say they dont exist will never admit they're wrong, no matter how much evidence is persented
btw, not saying your kid is a brat, just that that is what THEY would say

I agree. My DS has SPD, and sees a developmental pedi next month (and then another one in June) to be tested for autism, and we are almost positive he is going to get a diagnosis.
If any of those women who claim these disorders don't exist were to spend one day with my son, I'm sure they would change their minds.
It's welfare, people. It's allowing the government to be your baby daddy instead of being self-sufficient.

I don't have a child receiving services, but I do know that not all insurances cover the same things. Our plan has a $1000 deductible and a $40 copay per therapy visit. In addition, there is a maximum amount of therapy covered a year ($1500). If a child gets 2 ot or 2 pt visits a week, the expenses pile up quickly. Add speech therapy to that, and a normal family could go broke quickly. As a society, we are not benefited if kids are not treated early and well.
Quoting Anonymous:bullshit medical covers all the therapies and any medication. What does an autisic kid need that mine don't?

Parents claim disabilities for the money. Ssi instead of a job--woohoo!
My son has sensory processing disorder. No ssi.
Btw, those who have kids with autism need the money for their kids. It can be expensive. I know just ours for our kid isn't cheap. He has speech therapy and occupational therapy.
And before you even try I do not recieve ssi or have an autistic child. Keep assuming you know everything, you obviously went to medical school.
Quoting Anonymous:She would get medical assistance if her income is low enough to get ssi and medical assistance covers all therapies for autistic kids. I have a cousin with 2 so called autistic kids and a friend with a kid that I do believe does have a touch of autism and ALL therapies are covered for them but they like having that extra $700 a month. She was bullshitting you when she told you that is why she applied.
Quoting briansmommy2010:
Insurance doesn't always cover all of the therapies that an autistic child may need, and not everybody has a job that offers insurance. I know one parent that gets SSI for her autistic child, and the main reason she even applied was for the insurance so he could keep getting help after he turned 3 and aged out of early intervention.

One of my best friends had a baby born with hydrocephalus (water on the brain) and a year later she has nothing, they keep denying her. It pisses me off

I know. Pos lazy parents who have kids with 'disorders' and government checks. It's welfare, and you're welfare queens. It's just government scum.
The people who are physically ill can't get it because parents believe there's something mentally wrong with their kids.
Sad for our country.
Quoting Anonymous:It just really pisses me off that there are adults out there with serious terminal illnesses who cannot get help but they hand it to kids and people actually believe that these kids DESERVE it!
Quoting Anonymous:
Yep. Welfare instead of self-reliance. Sad.
Quoting Anonymous:No children do not deserve to be handed $700 a month to support themselves, that is the parents job. It needs to go back to the way it was years ago, you did not get ssi for a child unless they where severely sick (pretty much bedridden) or terminal, not because a kid can't look you in the eyes, throws temper fits and does not like certain foods. This entitlement shit is why the United States is in the situation it is.
Quoting Anonymous:The children deserve it. It
It's not like a lot of other programs the government pays for would meet other people's approval. This just happens to be a popular one. I wonder if we know all the government spends money on.
Quoting Anonymous:
So??? The government should fund that why exactly?

No sarcasm :) I think it is great you don't take bullshit in your classroom

Sarcasm or...?

Your opinion is irrelevant. The kids behave in my class and do well. I don't baby and I don't tolerate the bullshit. I have patience, but I'm not going to waste it babying kids who are old enough to listen. None of my kids are mentally retarded. They all have silly diagnoses. Why do they behave in my class but not at home? Because I'm not your mama, so don't bring me the drama. That's fucking why.
Quoting Anonymous:
For a kid with spd that texture can be physically painful. The point of seeking help and therapy is to teach them coping skills so when they are adults they can handle it. Water on my son's face feels like needles stabbing him. But every night we do his joint compressions and he splashes water on his face to help desensitize him to that feel in.
You should not be a teacher if you have such little patience and understanding for children. They are kids not mini adults.
Quoting Anonymous:
I have 24 kids in my class. 18 have some kind of a disability. My kids who have spd don't like the taste or texture of food. Wtf. Get over it. They don't like the way their coat feels today. Wtf. Employers won't be so apt to change everything because Johnny hates his new desk chair and won't sit down and get to work. That's fucking ridiculous.
These kids need to be taught to fucking deal with it sometimes. Parents baby them and that just hurts them further. It's a cycle.
Most other diagnoses are wrong, too, in my kids. They behave when they're being challenged. They behave when free time is on the line. They have the control but choose not to exercise it.
Every parent thinks their kid is super special, and some of them even get meds for it. Ridiculous.
Quoting Anonymous:I am sure there are lazy parents but this doesn't mean that there isn't such a thing. Spend a day with my son and you would see.
He has sensory issues, mainly with his food. It' snot just about what he likes but it's uncomfortable for him.
Quoting Anonymous:
I'm a teacher. I see these lazy POS parents every day who can't be bothered to discipline and would rather get a check and medication.

IGNORANCE AT IT'S FINEST RIGHT HERE!
Quoting Anonymous:
I think it's all fake because parents would rather medicate than parent. Raising kids is hard, so lets give them a fucking complex and medication for it.
Quoting Anonymous:
You should discipline them. She never said spank or abuse. Just be a fucking decent parent and your kid won't be acting like an idiot. It's not that damn hard.
Quoting Anonymous:
And then there's the ones who say you should whoop their ass because its not a real problem. Sure, we should all just abuse our kids till they behave. Such bullshit.

I really do not understand some of these comments. It is hard to raise a special needs child, Some parents need extra help. Some diagnosis can be so bad that sometimes it's not an option to work. Sit back and look at your situations, if it were you would you take that help handed out to you to aid your child. I am fortunate to not need to take it but there are others who do need it. It is shameful to sit here and read how a mother who knows what it is like to raise a special needs could sit and ridicule another who may not be as fortunate in ways she might be. It baffles me, sometimes it takes to lose before you can be understanding. Stop ragging on other and start thanking god, things could always change for the worse. We are all here to support one another and this is not what support is.

Do you REGRET having kids
