My son has always been hyper, on the go, fidgety and boisterous. However, he’s so polite, gentle and kind to other children. He is speech delayed, he speaks more like a 2 year old, a few sentences with lots of words. He’s always been behind with communication since 12 month review. Hes so forward physically, he can swim, jump from high places and never injures himself, climb, run so fast and build things. He’s so independent and has preferred playing along rather than with me. I can sit and watch but doesn’t like much input from me. He gets overwhelmed easily by situations that are loud, like a loud live show with music, he covers his hands with ears. He responds better to you if you’re over exaggerating or super excited. I’m wondering if these are some traits of ADHD or ASD? We are seeing a speech therapist, we’ve had one assessment and she mentioned lack of attention span and waiting to see what the next step is.
