A secondary family tool
For conversations around the family
A practical tool families may use between conversations with teachers, therapists, and other support people.
How parents may use it
PDA Question can help turn a difficult experience into clearer observations and lower-pressure language.
Find lower-pressure wording
Consider language that preserves autonomy and reduces urgency.
Prepare questions
Bring more focused questions to meetings or appointments.
Reflect on patterns
Describe moments more clearly between school or support conversations.
Keep the role clear
Educational support, not professional evidence
PDA Question is not a clinical assessment, treatment, or diagnostic tool. Its responses are not evidence of professional consensus and do not replace professional judgment or individualized support.
Families should review app responses critically and share only what they find useful and appropriate.
Professionals may review material a family chooses to share. The current consumer service is not offered for independent institutional submission of client, patient, or student information.
