DEVELOPMENT
Most children have no issues with development. But one child in six will have what is called a neurodevelopmental disorder.
There are six neurodevelopmental disorders which will be covered in this section. They are:
- Intellectual Developmental Disorder
- Communication Disorders
- Autism Spectrum Disorders
- Attention Deficit - Hyperactive Disorders (ADHD)
- Learning Disorders
- Movement Disorders

My Thank You Gift for Visiting
I appreciate your visiting my site. I invite you to come back often, because I add to these three layers regularly. I would also like to give you something to take away with you. I write a letter called Beyond the Label, about the children who get called lazy, defiant, or careless, and what is usually going on instead. It costs nothing, and every issue I have already written is there waiting for you.
