[QUOTE="jasz1971, post: 333894, member: 6709"] I'm a preschool special education teacher. Honestly, I would not wait to make an appointment with a developmental pediatrician. There is often a long wait to get an appointment...where I live 6 months. From what you described, this does sound like an autism spectrum disorder. Like everything no two kids who have been diagnosed with Autism are alike. I don't agree with your therapists...the sooner the better to get all the help that you need. I have worked with kids as young as two that have been diagnosed with Autism and yes they were able to learn to communicate through sign language/words. It sounds like you have a good program in place for your daughter but there are treatments/approaches that are used with children who have autism spectrum disorders. Hang in there...you are doing a great job. [/QUOTE]
