Dunno where you live, but she lives in Puyallup, Washington where the
mental health end of things at Good Samaritan Hospital is above the
average in the rest of this area.  She took the girl there after the
local school teachers decided to play doctor and got an entirely
different opinion from the folks who are credentialed in the treatment
of mental illness.
School teachers are not credentialed to diagnose and treat mental
illness.
 Or is it just your opinion?
My opinion is backed by having graduated from a mental hospital back
east, one run by the Federal government.  It was some years ahead of the
state institution I found here when I was a young housewife in Puyallup.
My opinion is backed by two full pages of seminars and lectures I have
taken since in the field of mental health and addiction.
My opinion on Attention Deficit Disorder is backed by a couple of papers
I have around here from folks who are experts in their field and who do
their own learning constantly.
And also by some of the professionals in chemical dependency I have
asked lately.
I am unable to figure out why any sane person would resist so
drastically anything that would help a child.  Perhaps you can explain
that to me?
