[QUOTE="buddy, post: 495273, member: 12886"] Neuropsychologists are at children's hospitals, university clinics and hospitals, and clinics for child development. It does sound like your son may have more than a speech delay. Maybe a language issue including a processing problem. If he has friends he can play with in a run around, play next to way but NOT in a cooperative back and forth imaginative way that is really important to tell the evaluator. when they did the Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation , did they do a sensory integration assessment? Does he have anything that he is uncomfortable with like smells or sounds or tastes? is he picky or upset easily by these things? OR on the other end... does he seek out these things, does he feel pain the same as others? It can take a while to get into them... but is well worth the comprehensive way they look at our children. Another route is to see a developmental pediatrician and ask them for a COMPLETE evaluation too... some use a team of evaluators in that case like Occupational Therapist (OT), Speech Language Pathologist (SLP), psychologist, social work, genetics etc. [/QUOTE]
