[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 92141, member: 1550"] My son still repeats the stuff he hears on shows. He is no longer "echoing" per se, but it helps him say stuff he means, at appropriate times, when he can't come up with the sentences himself. For example, he may say, "It's just so tough to be a kid." I know his well enough to ask, "What show is that from?" He'll tell me, "Sponge Bob said that to Mr. Crabby Patty." He's fourteen...lol. My son has a large vocabulary, and CAN form his own sentences, but he often prefers to borrow the ones he hears on television. It's a very common Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) trait. Maybe he is echoing part of TV shows, what others say (teachers) etc. and you just aren't aware. It took me a while to figure out that son was coming out with his "clever" phrases from mostly television. [/QUOTE]
