Years & years waiting for help

It took 6 years of being constantly told that there was nothing wrong with my son by NSFT before they finally agreed to let him be seen by a psychiatrist. The Psychiatrist after meeting him for 15mins came up with Tourettes, ADHD, PDD, Anxiety and depression. (He had a full case history before hand and timeline since birth). We were happy and sad that our son was diagnosed with these as he could now get the help he so badly needed and we as parents had been screaming for since he was 4 yrs old. The trouble is by this stage he no longer went to school as school had classed him as a naughty boy. WHY DON'T THEY LISTEN TO PARENTS ??? they caused my son and me and my wife hell for 6 years.
