[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A 1 year old who is not talking is not a concern, BUT a kid who knew a few words and then lost them: that is a serious concern. It is an abnormal pattern of progression of speech and it is a red flag for ASD. This is what happened with my child and he ended up being diagnosed with ASD. I was told again and again that the main concern wasn't that he did not have a lot of words, but that he lost words that he had known in the past. Not pointing is also a red flag. But really the main issue here is loss of speech. The sooner you start speech therapy, the better. I would start now if I were you.[/quote] +1[/quote]
