[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With speech like that, I’d be concerned about being on the spectrum as well. The two often go together. [/quote] OP here and I have wondered about autism. She has always been pretty serious and doesn’t have a particularly wide range of emotions, especially compared to one year old DD. She has never been flagged for autism by the pediatrician, and of course I have filled out the screeners. The other thing is that she is highly aware of emotions. Even at age two, if my mind drifted for a moment she would immediately say “Why are you worried?” She always reads facial expressions of characters in picture books too. She says things like “Why is that character surprised/worried/upset/frustrated/etc.” I don’t think a child on the spectrum could do that? That said, she definitely does not consider outcomes for herself/others before she acts. Ever.[/quote]
