[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 592358, member: 1550"] Speech and social issues are what Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) children have. A lot of them don't' have behavioral problems. I'm still betting on a later Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) issue, and I think you should get a second opinion. Kids don't get "stubborn" and just refuse to talk at home or at school. Sounds like he really can't talk. Now my oldest daughter Julie did not speak in preschool for an entire year. Weird, I know. She talked fine at home, but wouldn't say a word at school. She was very shy. The second year though she did speak and she always spoke at home. Back to Sonic, my Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kid, he did really well with sign language and just gesturing and pulling and grunting [I][B]with expression [/B][/I](lol) until he broke into speech (and it happened almost overnight) when he was 4 1/2. I mean, he had echoed, but never spoken a sentence. One day...he just spoke and he has never stopped. He never even had articulation problems. I was told that this is not uncommon with autistic kids...one day they can't, the next day they do. They have uneven development! Good luck! :) [/QUOTE]
