Me: Plus  Equals  'Nuff Said |
OK, then I will. In very brief synopsis, my 3 year old Son may well have a level of Autism. He is loving, responsive, reciprocal, imaginative, reads precociously, knows numbers back and forth, and every bit a rascal. But we took him to a neurologist for evaluation due to that he is deficient in his speech to his age level, and it was told to us that she suspects Autism, to a dgree, and there are all levels of the spectrum. He will be fine, he's a scamp, but what parent wants to hear THAT? PARTICULATLY as it was put to us, which is another thread altoghetheth.(see...drinkin'!) |

Kinda happens fast! Just like Jim Ignatowski on Taxi. Just remember Dr.'s aren't always right, & a suspiscion doesn't make it a fact. Every one thought my son needed speach therapy, & I said no, he'll be fine. He got tested at his teachers request, & the Dr. said no problem. He was using words that some adults have a hard time using in a setance, & now his speach is on par with any kid his age or a few years older. I hope this helps, just remember some folks fact's aren't facts at all. It seams to me that lot's of Dr.'s these days like to find something big wrong with kids because it's socialy acceptable. |
