[QUOTE="allhaileris, post: 179959, member: 5663"] You wrote this: "With that speech delay (even though she is catching up) I would want her tested for high functioning autism, not ADHD. My son has it and it is hard to diagnose and, regardless, needs special interventions. Often these kids get the wrong label of ODD. Is she sensitive to textures, foods, sounds, transitions? Does she have trouble socializing APPROPRIATELY? This doesn't mean she's not friendly--she may be VERY friendly. But does she know how to have a give-and-take meaningful conversation with children her own age? Does she have a good imagination and play normally with toys?" (sorry, in a hurry to quote correctly) You wrote this as I was responding to Trinities post and I mentioned it as well. She does seem to have appropriate social functions...I think. She has a hard time doing the same thing as everybody and will often be the last. So say the teacher says do 10 jumping jacks, she lags and ends up doing 5 after everybody else has done their 10. She has a wonderful imagination and does play appropriately with most of her toys. They just have to be spread out all over her room! [/QUOTE]
