Hi, I've recently been alerted to the fact my son still doesn't answer to his name.. I used to think he occasionally did but now I'm thinking he's more reacting to the tone of my voice rather than his actual name. He must have answered when he was a baby as I've always been a bit obsessed with the milestones. Speaking to a friend who has a son who has autism she mentioned that autistic children tend to climb a lot too which my son does but assumed that was just toddler boyish behaviour 🙈
He is a happy kid, plays peek a boo and claps hands to nursery rhymes. Puts his arms out to be picked up when he wants it but not yet pointing at things he wants which again I put down to the fact he just gets what he wants himself. He responds when I say no and if I ask him to come to me he will so I really don't know what to think. It's obviously not his hearing. He is not shy and will play with other children.
