[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of kids tend to be anxious in that setting. I think it's the rare little kid that doesn't get anxious at the pediatrician. Stop blaming OP. [b]She could have role played all day with this child but it seems to me this doctor blew it, big time. The comment about autism speaks volumes.[/b][/quote] I don't agree. The child's behavior looked like the behavior of a kid with an ASD, per the OP's description. It's sufficiently like an ASD that[b] I was wondering about whether the kid has an ASD and OP is in denial[/b], until she said that it had been ruled out. On the other hand, my kid was "ruled out" for Asperger's at age 5 and diagnosed with an ASD at age 8. OP's doctor is 100% right to keep that diagnosis in mind. [/quote] Taking a big leap there, aren't you?[/quote]
