I don't want to sound too dramatic, but I really do feel like i'm the only one around here(where I live, not mumsnet) with a child who's so far behind. My DD is nearly 4 and at pre school. She hasn't been diagnosed with anything and the health visitor doesn't think it's ASD like the pre school do. The problem is, she is still quite far behind in her social skills and I notice that the other mums seem to keep there children away. She tends to be overly friendly ie, we were out having lunch yesterday and this boy came in and she overheard his name and for the rest of lunch she was shouting his name and asking him questions to which she got no response. She tends to just go into her own little world and resite an entire disney film script and there's nothing I can do to snap her out of it. She very rarely walks anywhere, she'll usually jump and dance everywhere. Then we'll have another day where she is doing most things that she should be. It's so confusing. Non of my friends have children, let alone SN children. I don't see any other children locally act like my DD but i'm being told by family and the HV that she's fine. Don't know who to believe. Just wish I could talk to someone who understood. In person. Everyone can be really supportive on here I know, but you can't beat a coffee(or wine) and a chat with someone who gets how you feel.
