I am an Early Childhood Educator turned stay-at-home mom. Finally received answers to my oldest son's "quirks" when he was diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder in 2010. What a learning curve for a former teacher, who was only 10 years out of school! Here are our ups, downs, and vents in between....

Disappointed :(
Wow Oprah, you got it wrong this time :( Thanks for featuring SPD on your show, but you have many of the facts wrong. During the show, 2 young boys were featured. One had Bipolar Disorder. The other child was only shown to have a diagnosis of SPD. Clearly, this little boy had problems. None of which I have ever seen in my son, or in the other children who have SPD that I know. They also categorized SPD as a mental illness, of which it is not! With all of the talent that works behind the scenes at the Oprah show, they should have known this! So sad that there is now mis-information out there!
