Lien from Aarschot has been waiting for over a year for appropriate mental health care for her 6-year-old son. He likely has ADHD and a form of autism, but it's a long wait for an official diagnosis from a psychiatrist. Only then can targeted treatment be initiated. "As parents, we're at our wits' end," she told VRT NWS. She calls for more respect and decisive action from the government.
