[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS, toddler with ASD and echolalia, has a good vocabulary, but still refers to himself in the third person, and does NOT seem to get pronouns. After months of working on it, prompts, etc., there's no improvement. I know pronoun confusion is common for ASD kids. For those who've BTDT - what strategy did you use to make it "click" for your DC? How did they eventually get it?[/quote] It's normal for toddlers to refer to themselves in the third person. Look at Elmo :lol: My kid with ASD but no echolalia had issues with pronouns until he was 5 and in K. He got help with social skills at school with SLP but not sure if they worked on pronouns. FWIW, his cousins w/ASD who are similar in age and did not get social skills/speech help also did not have issues with pronouns by 5.[/quote]
