Re: When To Tell Kids Their Diagnosis

[Guest guest]

we told our son when he noticed he was different. we told him part of his brain

was broken but we were all going to work on fixing it. he is only 6 so this

seemed to help him understand.

considering telling him. He is in regular ed and had a good 4th grade year but

some social issues in the end. I am thinking the good kids might undestand his

quirks better and the bad kids are just bad anyway. Plus he would understand why

he is a little different. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!
