[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm the pp whose entire family including son and nephews shows signs of ASD/Asperger's or have an official diagnosis. My DS and nephews passed every autism screening as infants/toddlers. They respond to their names and their eye contact is normal. Everyone spoke and read early and never flapped, rocked or spun in circles, zero echolalia. Their main signs of ASD was obsessive interests and not engaging/playing with other children once they started school.[/quote] Interesting. Is the ASD very mild for all of them?[/quote] They were all diagnosed with ASD/Asperger's type when they started school. There were no other outward signs and/or problems until you saw them in a group setting, so yes, mild ASD. They are all excellent students without behavior problems, just no friends, so they probably would not have been diagnosed with anything even 10 yrs ago.[/quote]
