i don't mean to be harsh but don't be so determined to diagnose this kid & her family if you are not willing to do nothing to help them. why so determined to give them a (her) a label? so you can say later on.."my old house had a neighbor kid that was a ------ or who had ----?
again i ask...spend that energy & do do something to help the child. not just you as a lay person pinning a label that may or may not be right or wrong. if she is indeed that ill then this kid needs help. if her parents don't see it...someone needs to drop a dime.
maybe it is something that can be easily worked thru with medication & therapy now...but later in life won't be so easily resolved..lack inaction may doom this kid. an issue in childhood will be so much less complex to work with...there are schools, programs etc. but not if there is no notification.
honestly so what if the mother dislikes you..isn't saving a child more important?
please. priorities.
