1. Keeping Up With The Times.
As in every field, not all professionals keep up with the times.
Often those further along in their careers tend to be the worst culprits. It is difficult to maintain a practice and to keep up with all of the different categories of changing knowledge. It can be overwhelming and some decide to just give up.
They feel like they know βenoughβ and hey, they got a degree in this field right? How much could possibly change since they went to school?
2. Confidently Giving Out Wrong Information
An autistic parent recently took their child who had already been diagnosed with both Autism and ADHD to a new provider as they had moved to another state. The new Dr. informed them that their child could not have both conditions.
An autistic parent recently took their child who had already been diagnosed with both Autism and ADHD to a new provider as they had moved to another state. The new Dr. informed them that their child could not have both conditions.
They either had Autism or ADHD, but could not have both. When the parent explained that they had already been previously diagnosed with both, the Dr. informed the parent that the other Dr.s were wrong!
