[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one can diagnose your kid over the internet. [b]Start with your pediatrician.[/b] Read a good book on child development like Touchpoints. Also, check the CDC milestones for old your kid is. If they show the signs under "Act Early," then definitely talk to your pediatrician and early intervention services. Lack of eye contact alone doesn't mean autism. Tantrums don't necessarily mean autism. Sometimes these things are age appropriate. [/quote] Our pediatrician was useless. DS with HFA passed all the autism screenings given by the pediatrician. Most pediatricians are not "good" with diagnosing HFA. Thus most kids with HFA are not diagnosed until they start school.[/quote]
