Thank you for posting this. Two of my kids have APD, one severe and one mild.

What are your mild one's symptoms? My daughter is so mild people often don't believe me that there's anything wrong (unless they are her speech therapist of course).

I emailed the link to my mother and got a really snarky comment back. But then my mom doesn't really ever try to have a real, detailed conversation with my daughter so I don't think she really notices the differences in how Grace understands things. Mmmm, can you tell I'm annoyed right now?:glare:

She still has a hard time following oral instructions and is easily confused esp in a noisy environment. She says 'Huh?" a lot because she misses the first part of a conversation, then wants to know what she missed so she can make sense out of what she heard.
