I am grateful to say that Mr. Walsh would have a role in this area. I am referring to an emerging pattern whereby quite a number of parents feel this misdiagnosis is being made and therefore the child is not being understood in the first place. Second, they cannot access the appropriate supports because they are being given supports for the wrong issue. Does Mr. Walsh know what I mean?
