Forms for Lauren

Last night I got the forms from the school for Lauren. There was one for permission to test (OK, I sent in a letter requesting the testing, isn't that enough). There was also two questionnaires. I was up till 11:00 pm filling them out. Some questions were easy like what do I think is wrong but others I had to think about. Also wanted a full medical history. I'm sure there will be more to come. I like how they don't start counting the 60 from the date of my request, but the date I return the permission form that it took 2 weeks to get. Can we say dragging their feet. I also received the form for the Neurologist from the teacher. I hate to be mean, but this woman must pay no attention to what happens in her class. In the emotion section she made no notes about Lauren's crying or getting upset and frustrated. Her teacher last year always made a point of mentioning it when we talked. I can't imagine it's changed at school since it still happens at home. I mean come on, she crys when Brandon gets in trouble. She did mention that Lauren is easily distracted, has trouble staying on task and stares off into space. Funny. When I asked her if she thought there may be signs of ADD she said no. What does she think ADD is.
