Typical concerns from parents include:

“My child seems like an outsider, he struggles to participate in groups and clings to me at birthday parties”

“Getting dressed in the mornings is a nightmare, everything seems to be too scratchy or too tight”

“My daughter is eight years old and still can’t ride a bicycle and is scared going down stairs”

“My son is at the end of his grade one year and still reverses some of his letters and numbers”

“My child is uncoordinated, clumsy and accident prone. They are always a few steps behind their friends on the playground”

“We can’t go to the mall or most restaurants with my little girl, she is just too easily overwhelmed and will definitely have a tantrum within the first few minutes”

“Our boy struggles to stay focused, even for short periods of time. He is constantly picking up toys and other things but never seems to stay put for long. It seems like he is not able to come up with ideas and follow through with them for more than a few seconds”
