thank you everyone , we saw the ed psych today, not sure what to think, I feel there might be a bit of a bad relationship between ed psych and the school.... who want my ds to have one to one, but ed psych seemed a bit removed, not really too fussed?
not sure my dh helped (he is very protective of ds and slightly defensive....)
bubblagirl,have you asked for a referral for your ds? not sure I can really help, I am not really good at all this yet, my ds traits atm are communication issues, speech problems....(not sure how much detail to go into), he will ignore people, eg the paed consultant said hello to ds when we went into the room, ds ignored him and went straight to the toys... after nearly an hour ds turned to him, walked over and climbed on his lap)... so he hasn't got good social skills
he has some tics, like sniffing (doesn't sniff objects just rapid sniffing through his nose), eye contact is an issue at nursery and with people like the consultant paed. (he makes good eye contact with his family, no problem)
he screams when asked to do something he doesn't want to do... not sure which things are asd traits, I am sure I haven't covered everything... paed said the word for ds is different... nursery cannot get him to follow instructions(we can at home mostly)... I could go on, he sleeps well, eats reasonably well, is loving and generous with hugs and kisses, can do some imaginery play, loves music, dancing, hates hand dryers and public loos, he is quite a shy boy, but he is friendly, his speech has a lot of jargon, so although he wants to speak to people, he can't do it most of the time.....
