[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We just started speech therapy and the therapist does not know for sure if it is ASD. But she says it is definetly a speech delay. I wonder if an autistic child could also be shy?[/quote] Yes, an autistic child can be shy. Shyness is temperament not a diagnosis and not an indicator of anything but personality although extreme shyness (like extreme anything) can be an anxiety disorder.[/quote]
