We recently did a survey thing to determine if my older son (.almost six years old) has it, and it came back as a "possible".
Recently, though, I've been wondering if my younger son doesn't have it.
When we talk to him, it's like talking to a brick wall. He can't hold eye contact more than about two seconds. He's extremely affectionate and friendly and intelligent, but the eye contact thing is REALLY annoying. He also isn't effected by what is being said to him. Yesterday, he got in a LOT of trouble in preschool, and his response to everything we said or did was to tell us he wanted Taco Bell for dinner.
Other than those situations, he doesn't have many of the classic signs of autism, as he's very social and he doesn't have a major thing for routine.
What is the likelihood of having two kids in the same family have it?
