[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think testing her for SN (ASD?) is a good idea. Sounds like high rigidity, not being able to deal with transition/uncertainty/change of imaginary plan (like she THINKS you will make her a sandwich or give a donut and then it doesn’t happen).
Good luck! [/quote]

I was thinking the same thing—have you filled out the ASQ-SE? That could help you determine whether you should pursue an eval by a child development specialist. This sounds outside the norm from what you’ve described. I know you’ve ruled out physical things but did you rule out developmental causes? [/quote]

We have not. I have told her pediatrician this many times, but because she’s so normal around others I think they don’t take me seriously. I’ll Google whether I can take that assessment ourselves or whether it’s through the ped. Thanks[/quote]

Yes. High functioning/high Iq/highly verbal kiddos appear NT in short bursts in novel environments with distractions. That is normal! (And promising too down the line.) When you get an actual evaluation they will ask you a lot of questions about her behavior at home and will not rely on very brief observations. [/quote]
