[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 349502, member: 1550"] Does he have any quirks? Did he have any speech delays and does he understand how to participate in a give and take conversation? Does he ever repeat things he hears on television verbatim? Any strange quirks such as lip smacking, arm flapping, weird throat noses, blurting things out that make no sense, picking scabs? Does he know how to adequately relate to his same age peers? Can he make strong, steady eye contact with both you and strangers? Does he transition well, without a fuss? Does he rage over transitions? Does he like to be held and stroked? ODD rarely stands alone. It is usually a reaction to another, bigger disorder. All of our kids would qualify as ODD, but they all have different diagnoses. I am thinking perhaps he [I][B]may [/B][/I]be on the autism spectrum. Actually, a neuropsychologist is the professional many of us think figures our k ids out the best. Psychiatrists look for mental health issues and often miss neurological issues. NeuroPsychs are aware of both and test from 6-10 hours. Welcome to the board! [/QUOTE]
