[quote=Anonymous]I suspect that my (almost 5 year old) daughter will be dx with it shortly- she talks all the time at home and with friends that she has known for a long time (like since they were babies). At school she will never voluntarily speak to an adult. If her teacher asks her a direct question, she might whisper an answer, more than likely, she will lean over and whisper to her friend and have her friend answer for her. She has yet to say one word to any adult in her aftercare program, and went the entire summer at camp w/o saying a single word to a counselor. She will not speak to any adults outside of our family, and it took 2 years befor she would speak to my sister. It is a huge struggle for her. We have just started therapy for her and I don't know what they will recommend. [/quote]
