[quote=Anonymous]I watch twin 18-month-olds and I'm concerned that the boy is exhibiting some autistic tendencies. I'm not a diagnostician but I have experience with Autistic children on all schemes of the spectrum, including my much younger half-brother. He is just miles behind his sister in devepment, while she is using 20+ words he only grunts. He has minimal eye contact, he prefers to play with blocks, or shoes for hours, obsessively and melts down if the activity is interrupted. No interest in others, non verbal and more alarmingly often anganes in self stimulation (hand flapping and rocking). I see so many red flags that the parents just ignore and pass of as "him just being a boy". I am concerned, and know the best thing for him is a proper diagnoses. How do I address this with my bosses? I know it can be a Sensative subject. I don't want to come of like I know better, or that there is something wrong with their parenting.[/quote]
