[quote=Anonymous] Mixed Expressive Receptive Language Disorder often looks like autism. Because the children have little receptive language but typical IQ they quickly figure out that something is off with them. Being "shy" is a form of protection. Autism is a social communication disorder at its heart. MERLD is a language disorder. They are so close in appearance at young ages you need a professional to tell them apart. [/quote]
