[quote=Anonymous]My NT, even quite smart, son did not get I/You until almost 4. In his case, he spoke early and we did not pay attention enough to model correct usage. He is an only child, and we always tend to refer ourselves as Mommy and Daddy and called him You. It was really hard to correct until he went to preschool and see other kids referring themselves as I/me/mine. I think the most important thing is to always use I when you refer to yourself and not use mommy or daddy. He will eventually get it. I read somewhere from a speech therapist that she did not think this is a ASD thing. She said it is the sign of an analytic brain. [/quote]
