[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would get him an evaluation at Children's Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders:

http://childrensnational.org/departments/center-for-autism-spectrum-disorderscasd

Specifically for ADOS/ADI-R, which is considered the gold standard for diagnosing ASDs.

Your son sounds a lot like my son who was diagnosed with Aspergers's when he was 4.  At this age, it isn't so much the social communication issues (parallel play is still considered OK) b[b]ut the repetitive behaviors and obsessive interests that got DS diagnosed with ASD.

DS is 8 now and was also diagnosed with ADHD, combined type, at 7 through a full neuropsych eval but the ASD/Asperger's type diagnosis at 4 was spot on.

Good luck![/quote]

Interesting that no one else agrees with you. But here you are, suggesting ASD, as you do for 90 percent of children with any issues.[/quote]

This is just so vague. What 4 year old is not obsessive about their favorite thing at that moment???????[/quote]
