[QUOTE="w0rriedm0m, post: 324316, member: 8564"] THANK YOU SR,AND MIDWESTMOM I wanted to mention about the toewalking. They told me it is from tight heel cords. Is this a "normal" thing for red flag for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)? He went to an orthopedic surgeon and had botox and castings done last summer(2yrs) to stretch them. He is walking normal now,with a slight problem picking up one toe. so he does alot of stumbling. I must also say that we have CMT in the family which this is very common with. (CHARCOT-MARIE -TOOTH DISEASE)neuromuscular disease. As far as the questions, he does not mimic/copy things he hears strange quirks? none other than what I mentioned. Do you have any things to suggest I think about? As far as playing with peers, he has played well,he has tended to be clumsy and bump into peers if in a small setting like circle time, but it isnt intentionally "ramming". I will admit I am highly stressed during playgroup because I am not entirely sure what he will do. He has bitten a friend just from being close enough that its like he is hugging and out come the teeth.:frowny: he also seems to occasionally target(altho I dont know if that is the right word) small toddlers. You know the busy 18 month old, that walk and play but arent quite verbal yet. He will be playing in the same room and say,"I hit ____childs name." so for us we are thankful that he says this.He will also say this when he gets hurt or if the dog nips at him. As for the biting we just USUALLY HEAR him get silly. It usually happens when he is rough housing. Again-thanks for any replies!!!!!! I have already put those books on hold at the library and have never taken the school Occupational Therapist (OT) diagnosis to heart, because I know it is just an opinion. Right now we are just happy that he is there. I feel in my gut there is alot going on. So far the school has not mentioned what they "think". The sppech teacher agreed with me when I said I was "concerned about ADHD". My husband the other day actually said to me, "are you sure there is actually something WRONG with- him"? I wanted to say - "are you serious????":angry: [/QUOTE]
