Autistic-Like

I came across the trailer of this movie about Graham Linthorst. A child who is mis diagnosis with autism which actually is sensory processing disorder. I have hope that we can get SPD into the DSM-5 classification that comes out in 2013, so children with the mild version would receive treatment accordingly.

One question was asked why is SPD under mental or psychiatric disorder. It is a neurological disorder and the impact in children is high because it takes in many form from socially inept, emotional tail spin and academic failure. SPD is a hidden disorder.
