[quote=Anonymous]Yes, but in our case we were not entirely sure because DS was born premature and was still delayed at 3, and because the symptoms overlapped with autism. The major symptom was staring off into space for long periods of time every day (and not interacting with others properly). Given your oldest has ADHD, there is a high probability your 3 year old has ADHD, perhaps the inattentive kind. DS was tentatively diagnosed at 6 with ADHD and MERLD. Then confirmed ADHD diagnosis at 10. We still suspect he has Asperger's tendencies (HFA), but the ADHD was the most important thing to diagnose, since it can be treated with meds. [/quote]
