Just FYI, there's no standard set of practices for conducting assessments -- it's literally whatever the particular shrink or whoever wants to do. So, one might require parental input but another might not.
(It's amuses me a little that a parent's recall is considered objective. In other areas of life they are excluded because of not being considered objective enough, i.e. character reference, trial witness, etc.)
If that's the case (no standards for assessment) that's unsettling to me and a reason I've hesitated to seek a formal Dx.
