[QUOTE="chels, post: 242377, member: 6796"] No, he hasn't been tested for anything. Our former pediatrician (we've recently relocated) didn't think the lining up the cars was anything to worry about since he had no contributing behaviors (meaning nothing else that pointed to autism). My mom, who's an educator and has taught kids with autism for 25+ years as well conducts parent training courses, also does not think it's autism (or on the spectrum). But I'm not so sure. I think something's going on, whether it's something on the autism spectrum or something else. We've been told that he's just very strong-willed and that being super consistent and firm might make things worse for awhile (which they have) but will eventually work. We're told not to expect significantly noticeable results until he's 5 or 6. Quite frankly, I don't think I can keep my sanity for that long! Plus, that just seems like too long a timeframe. We're going to talk to our new peditrician at his 4 yr. check up. I guess we should ask about testing. [/QUOTE]
