[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes he does respond to his name and will look at the person talking to him. If the other children are near adults he does not know, he will not approach them. He stays kind of frozen in company of stranger adults. Is nonverbal.[/quote] OP, if your kid is 26 months and non-verbal, please see a developmental pediatrician. You can call Kennedy Krieger or Children's and get on the wait list. Lots of things, not just autism, would cause the behavior that you're seeing. No one on the internet can diagnose your kid. At a minimum, you'll probably need speech therapy. I'd call early intervention services for where you live and get the ball rolling with free speech therapy.[/quote]
