[QUOTE="SRL, post: 235769, member: 701"] Hi Helpmyfamily, and welcome. It sounds like you are one very busy mother! For starters, I would look into Sensory Integration Dysfunction: [url]https://web.archive.org/web/20100820130047/http://www.tsbvi.edu/Outreach/seehear/fall97/sensory.htm[/url] Given the family history and the behaviors, it seems likely there could be something else going on here. Honestly with the list that you wrote, I would start looking into the Autistic Spectrum Disorders first. There's a wide range on the spectrum, all the way from what you know as classic Autism, to individuals whose symptoms are milder and less recognizable. Asperger's Syndrome is the highest functioning of the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)'s and the one to look into if the child has developed speech without significant speech delays. [url]http://oreilly.com/medical/autism/news/getting_diag.html[/url] There's a diagnostic screening tool here which is pretty good but the numbers won't be accurate for a child that didn't have speech delays. [url]http://www.childbrain.com/[/url] As with any parents that visit here, I want to mention that we're only parents and not diagnositicians. We can point you in directions to research and give you advice, but that's all. :) Hope this helps. SRL [/QUOTE]
