Mouseketeer Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 We struggle to get past the health visitors who put every concern we raise down as ‘age appropriate’, we had a child a couple of years ago who clearly was, no one would listen, the challenging behaviour was due to every excuse under the sun except what it clearly was, now at the end of reception has been diagnosed ....this is where ‘Early Intervention’ falls down :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason I ask is that ours will not do anything until he is 7 but has just diagnosed him. Ealry intervention appears to mean when they get to year 4 in our area at the moment!
