616452 tn?1253877644 Does he have Semantic Pragmatic Speech Disorder? Does he have Central Auditory Processing Disorder? Does he have Dyslexia? Does he have Auditory Memory Retrieval problems? Does he have Sensory Integration Disorder, Does he have poor Theory of Mind, Does he have Executuve Function Disorder, what is his Cognitive Ability? Unfortunately the more 'disorders' you discover the more support the child gets as it proves they have severe and complex needs.
Avatar f tn He or she will conduct assessments to attempt to identify why problem behavior occurs, which makes it much easier to treat. He or she should be able to identify teaching strategies that will accelerate skill acquisition. I hope some of this information is helpful. Best of luck for you and your family.
Avatar f tn We have been teaching her to take deep breaths and she usually goes to a spot by herself when she gets upset. She is somewhat of a picky eater. She cries if she has to try something new that she thinks doesn't look good. We have not looked into sensory integration disorder. I'm just starting to research what this could be. I kind of thought she would outgrow it but it seems to be getting worse. Any info or experience you have on sensory integration disorder would be much appreciated!
676912 tn?1332812551 He doesn't have speech therapy. He's five years old. He speaks clearly, and has a huge vocabulary, normal for his age. I'm not 100% sure about all of it, but I know it has more to do with his brain and comprehension.
709940 tn?1231900307 He is also extremely violent. He does make eye contact most of the time and his speech is excellent. He does not understand he, she, what, why or how and everything is I don't know. He "W" sits when he plays and he has several tactile and sensory issues such as covering ears when there are loud noises and bright lights and will only eat dry foods. I have been to every doctor known to man and cannot seem to get a diagnosis.
Avatar f tn s parents at conference time regarding teaching their children at home the difference between internaized speech and outloud speech. Thanks again for your advice!
Avatar f tn My son was diagnosed with Speech Delay when he was three. Autism was suggested, not ruled out, and not confirmed. According to the doctors that we've seen he is where he should be developmentally. However, he doesn't usually perform as well as other children and does not deal with disappointment well. Most people tell me it's because he's a boy or because it's typical of children. He just turned 5 and had a total melt down in a karate class.
1936640 tn?1323576210 I think it would help you to learn some congitive behavioral therapy (CBT) strategies. Ways to help you stop these behaviors and also ways to alleviate the stress and anxiety you are obviously under. You can find a psychologist that specializes in teaching CBT from the following website. http://therapists.psychologytoday.com/rms/?utm_source=www&utm_medium=link&utm_campaign=topnav_find_therapist Good luck and keep us posted with your positive progress.
776302 tn?1241091853 They assessed his receptive and expressive speech, working memory, auditory memory, assessed him for auditory processing disorder and semantic pragmatic speech disorder. She assessed his comprehension skills and information gaining skills using inference etc. And she also assessed his social interaction skills. That will give you a good idea of his areas of strength and weakness.
Avatar n tn But where your daughter does match the criteria eg. speech/social communication, then they could use the same strategies they might use for an autistic child. When my child was first assessed by Speech/Language professional she told me straight away that with that kind of speech problem it is usually autistic spectrum disorder eg.
Avatar f tn Many assume that language issues are associated with autism and they can be------- but speech issues are quite common with sensory kids and speech delays exist on their own. Social skills did not come naturally to my child. We have worked very hard teaching them to him. We did a "social skills camp" last summer. Very helpful.
Avatar f tn My 4 year old granddaughter has obvious speech problems. It is very hard to understand her. Her speech patterns have also changed. She used to call her mother "Mama-ee" and now she calls her "Mahee". She cannot pronounce her own name, Meaghan. I want my daughter to get her a hearing test and she says she does not think she has a hearing problem.
Avatar f tn Regarding repeating questions, words etc - google Echolalia and Autism and also Perseverant Speech and Autism and see if that sounds like what he is doing. If it is then he probably has a speech disorder that needs to be assessed by a Speech and Language Therapist. She should assess his expressive and receptive speech as well as assess for Semantic Pragmatic Speech Disorder.
Avatar f tn One of the girls has started, but the other just outright refuses and cries, runs, etc. They are receiving speech therapy, and have a SEIT. She thinks they have some sensory stuff going on and we are in the process of the evals. Could the refusal to sit be a combination of sensory issues, communication problem and her just strong willed nature? Does anyone else have a kid who just won't follow directions at school and sit? I am at a loss...
Avatar m tn The YIP or Yippies were a radical youth-oriented and countercultural revolutionary offshoot of the free speech and anti-war movements of the 1960s. I was a child of the sixties: 15 in 1960 and 25 in 1970. The YIP was founded on 31/12/’67 while I was teaching primary school on Baffin Island. Hoffman came into prominence in the 1960s while I was at university in the years 1963 to 1967. He continued practicing his activism in the 1970s when I moved on to teaching high school and university.
401219 tn?1205879481 I am an autistic support teacher of a student who is autistic and deaf and am desperate to find other people who are in a same/similar situation and strategies for teaching this student. I am currently using picture exchange AND sign language with my student. Any info from parents/families/educators/community workers.... would be very appreciated.
Avatar f tn Ahh, sorry you have this worry for your niece. I would take evaluations further. I would have her evaluated by a developmental pediatrician or an occupational therapist. This could be speech related but speech also plays into other neurological issues. There are three parts of speech that all have to work. First, there is receptive, that she has to take in what is said to her and organize it so she can understand it, comprehend. The next part of speech is expressive speech.
Avatar n tn He also answers no to a lot of questions I ask him. Since he was about a year old he has be in speech and developmental therapy because his doctors says he was delayed. I been having him in therapy for at least 3 years and I took him to different doctors and they still haven't found whats the problem with my son. They say he has some characteristics of autism but they say they have to do more test.
Avatar f tn receptive, expressive and articulation. Receptive is understanding what is said to you. expressive is forming what you want to say back and articulation is actually saying the words. All three take a tremendous amount of neurological coordination in the brain. If any one part is impacted, speech is difficult. And the same function that controls speech controls ability to regulate mood/impulse control, etc. My son has sensory integration disorder. We've had to work on these things.
941564 tn?1245303185 Hi Khalid, I don't know about the numbness and giddiness, but muscle spasticity as seen in CP is often worsened by stress, excitement, panic and other strong feelings. My partner has worked with children who have CP, and says it was incredibly common for them to work really hard, finally manage to complete an exercise like kicking a ball or hitting a balloon, and then become so excited at the achievement that their muscles would spasm and prevent them from moving.
Avatar m tn t get services provided in your country for speech, start teaching your child sign language. There are lots of videos and books out there. Even if you can get services, if you start teaching him sign language now, it'll get him started. I think the idea is to aim for a word per week, or at least until they get the idea. Some kids take longer than others. My daughter learned quickly, but she was 25 months when she started learning. I really think her being over 2 years old helped.
Avatar f tn Hi there. We also had a traumatic bith of my first child------ latent phase labor of three days until it was realized that something was wrong. I was so sick by the time he was born that it is all a blur. AND, my son has a developmental delay. A developmental delay does not mean a child isn't smart of have a high/normal IQ. My son is quite bright. But his nervous system does not work properly at times. His developmental delay is called sensory integration disorder.
Avatar f tn If he takes words/phrases from TV or DVDs or films and interweaves them into his speech that is delayed echolalia. This demonstrates a language processing difficulty, but also shows alot of intelligence to be able to put those phrases into his speech rather like putting a puzzle together. Does your son have normal voice volume, intonation and pitch. Does he speak with an accent or a monotone voice? Those things you mention I would recognise in my own son.
Avatar n tn My 14 year old son has an autistic disorder and I am having trouble teaching him about and having him follow social rules of conduct regarding sexuality. He is very interested in nude pictures on the internet and when i found out he was doing this we blocked all the sites and locked the computer up tight. He masturbates at least daily in the shower, bathroom, as well as his bedroom (which is the one place I said was appropriate- in private).
