[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 332293, member: 1550"] You know, he has almost all the symptoms of Aspergers. You may want to get a second opinion. Treating an Aspie as if he has ODD won't help him. His lack of eye contact and fear of loud noises and his few all encompassing interests and huge red flags for Aspergers. My son was first missdiagnosed with ADHD/ODD. He is on the high end of the autism spectrum. You don't need a speech delay for Aspergers. In fact Aspergers children tend to speak well and use big words and sound like little professors. But they have trouble with give and take conversations, often just answering "yes" or "no" or blurting things out that nobody was talking about. Or they copy things that they heard on television or from teachers. They have great rote memories and can recite the stuff that they hear verbatim. My son also had a fascination with letters and numbers and learned them very early. Colors too. Can you take him to see somebody else? [/QUOTE]
