No it does not and someone is spewing "facts" about MERLD that make sense for MERLD children basically placing them with autism and social communication issues when that is not the primary issue.  MERLD and Autism are very different in nature and how children present.  Children with MERLD do not have pragmatic issues but their social skills can be impacted by language.  My child understands kindness, empathy and all the social constructs of how to act.  He also does his best to do so given his challenges.  He doesn't need pragmatic assistance or social skills classes.[/quote]

If they are THAT different, then there is no reason you can't have both.  It is like saying you can't have MERLD and diabetes.  Please go look up the definition of "comorbid."[/quote]

That isn't the point of the thread.  Of course and ASD child can have receptive and expressive issues, BUT, it is not the point at all.  This is about MERLD, not ASD, not rants about how the outcome is very poor for MERLD kids, not the point that some MERLD kids have learning and other issues... you are missing the POINT.   [/quote]
