[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 6344, member: 1550"] He sounds like a great, bright, interesting child! He still has red flags for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). My son was similar. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids love to memorize facts. My son taught himself to read at two, although he couldn't hold a conversation yet. It was weird. I'd have him evaluated rather than guessing and trying to rationalize that he's like a normal kid. He has atypical development, which doesn't mean he isn't the great child with wonderful traits. but if he doesn't get interventions for his differences, he could suffer for that when he's older. Take the Childbrain test. Unfortunately, this is one thing that, if you ignore the child could pay for it forever. I wouldn't trust a pediatrician with this because it's not their field and most miss it. I'd get a Developmental Pediatrician to keep an eye on him, and try to get him into early interventions. Moving around and even a child being alone a lot doesn't cause these behaviors. These kids naturally isolate from other kids, however, and he may qualify for Early Education in your SD. Can't stress it enough. Get early help for this child. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
