[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, thank you for this. Someone in my extended family is dealing with a surprise diagnosis about her son. (IMO--which I know doesn't matter, but just for purposes of responding to your post--the kid is NT, just a boy and slower to develop his speech.) It's worth getting a second opinion when your kid is concerned.[/quote] Tell them to focus on speech therapy. If it isn't autism, it will tease itself between 4-6, when the kids start to speak. Basics, even eye contact, will come when the receptive and expressive language comes. Kids can't be social well if they don't have speech or understanding of speech.[/quote]
