Hi there.
For the past two weeks, i've noticed my 5yo daughter (diagnosed with HFA) occassionally repeating things in a whisper.
E.g. Just now she asked "What's for dinner?" and then immediately followed this with "what's for dinner?" in a whisper while stimming (flapping her hands).
The most i've noticed it is through imaginative play. She'll make a toy 'speak' and then often repeat what her toy 'says' in a whisper.
I've just done a quick google search and it's suggested it could be palilalia. Is this something i should bring up at dd's next SALT appointment?
Thanks.
