When deciding whether a child is disabled Social Security looks at 6 areas.
1. Acquiring and using information.
2. Attending and completing tasks.
3. Interacting and relating with others.
4. Moving about and manipulating objects.
5. Caring for self.
6. Health and physical well-being.
To be considered disabled, the child must have “marked” limitations in 2 of the areas, or “extreme” limitation in one area.
Next time I will discuss what kind of proof is needed to address these areas.
