[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dev ped does not think ASD right now because he is actually trying to initiate play and social, he is just SO inattentive that he wonders off to the next thing, and there is, if anything, too much joint attention - he constantly wants others to come see what he is doing. So, I guess severe inattentive ADHD, with some hyperactivity and impulsiveness to boot.[/quote] You should take him for ADOS/ADI-R. Even the dev peds at Children's and KKI will send kids with HFA there to definitively rule out ASD. My DS is highly socially motivated and has excellent joint attention but he still has ASD/Asperger's.[/quote] will do - will they recommend it if they think it is necessary or should I ask? [/quote]
