My DS is nearly 5. He is wonderful. But I'm concerned about his repetitive behavior. He is OBSESSED with numbers. He's very friendly and will walk up and introduce himself to other kids, and then ask how old they are, how many letters they have in their name, what number their house is. He does this a lot, and he will also ask me and his dad over and over again what our favourite number is.
I don't have many other concerns though our HV did query ASD when he was 3. It ultimately wasn't really progressed as his behavior (at the time, pushing other kids etc) hugely calmed down. Nursery and school also haven't raised any concerns about his social behavior or behavior generally.
Is his just a quirky numbers obsessed dude or is there possibly something more here?
