[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 246806, member: 1233"] Your instincts tell you something is going on. So something IS going on. Period. You have more experience with this child than anyone else on the face of this planet. Tell your pediatrician that you want a referral to a neuropsychologist for testing and will not be pacified with anything less. You want to be insistent because if he IS on the autistic spectrum then the earlier you get interventions into place the better for his long-term outlook. You mentioned in the first post in this thread that time out only works if you lock him in his room. You want to be VERY careful with this. You could face a CPS investigation if anyone finds out that you lock him in a room. Even a child-proofed, safe room. It is HIGHLY frowned upon. I KNOW it is not for hours, that you are not abusing him, etc.... BUT many people are mandated reporters and often they will see this as a sign of abuse. Depending on who evaluates the case for CPS you could really end up in a nightmare. This is just a warning. NOT an indictment of your behavior, or even criticism. Just experience learned from other members and something we were warned about years ago. [/QUOTE]
