[quote=Anonymous]My hubby told me that he has focus problem & daydream all the time in classes while he was growing up. He didn't talk till 3 years old. He didn't know how to read till kindergarten because no one taught him at all. He says he still get A & B in classes because they were not difficult, and he felt that he just was different compared to kids the same age back then. No teachers or parents or others realize that he has problem struggling in school/daily lives, and he kept it all to himself, didn't tell anyone at all. He had problem making friends throughout his childhood, and he was more an introvert, nerdy or geeky guy growing up. He said that he think his focus problem get greatly improved while he was in college.

Currently, he is a professional engineer, really attention to details, has no focus problem, really talkative, no shy at all, can easily make friends. If he didn't tell me his childhood, I cannot tell at all that he had those struggling problems growing up. I am thinking could that my hubby had some undiagnosed developmental/delay/medical problem while he was small & growing up, and for somehow, as time passes, it get "improved/corrected/fix" over the time??

We have a 2 year old boy that has speech delay & cognitive delay. My inlaws are not concerned at all that he only speaks less than 10 words, and thinking that I am worrying/thinking too much. He is seeing developmental pediatrician & speech therapists through infant & toddler program. I have been trying to work hard to find ways to make him talk. My inlaws say that he is just a mini version of my hubby, and he will talk later & everything would be alright. I am a bit confused how come my hubby's condition got improved/corrected over the years without any medication or therapy? And, I keep wondering if DS (with the DNA play role factor), would be just like my hubby, will outgrow everything at the end?[/quote]
