[quote=Anonymous]My 2 year old has speech delay, inconsistent eye contact, some repetitive actions, but he is really "social" and loves to play with any kids/adults. The developmental pediatrician is suspicious of him having high auction autism or mild autism because he is way too friendly. He is aware of the difference between strangers & familiar people, and he sometimes can be shy at strangers. But once you talk to him/smile at him, he thinks that everyone in the world is his friends. I always see how amazing he can be playing with random kids at the playground, range from younger toddler to adults. He is never a loner even though he can't talk. He loves attention & loves people. He loves to go to daycare everyday (because he can play with teachers & friends), pretty much no cry at all with him spending almost 10 days a day there from day 1. His daycare teacher & speech therapists tell me that they don't see he is autistic, but anyway, ADOS test is ordered to help to see if he is autistic or not. I am confused here that too friendly can be a big red flag of autistic? [/quote]
