[QUOTE="buddy, post: 471298, member: 12886"] it is true that not speaking after developing speech can be a form of autism (childhood disintegrative disorder). It can happen young, typically you'd notice it around 3-4 yrs old. Most professionals have never even met a child who truly has this. It is far more rare and these children tend to have a loss of many skills, it affects speech/social/motor skills. A big clue would be to look at if she is actually stopping all communication or just speech. Is she is still pointing, making eye contact, lifting her arms for you to pick her up, using the signs you taught her (eat, more, etc.) and imitating them (even if she gets ticked off, smile) ? Not to say that in addition she has some Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) stuff given you have other kids on the spectrum. Is she a kid who gets ear infections easily? Fluid in her ears even if no infection? There could be lots of things going on. She is only 1 right? [/QUOTE]
