My son just turned 4 and has poor communication skills. He can't seem to communicated his wants and needs beyond a few words. His special ed teacher said she believes he is showing some signs of autism, but his doctor said he does not belive he has autism. For instance if he is hungry, he will say, "you want cracker?" or "you want some milk?" he repeats things he hears me ask him. Has anyone else had or know a child with a speech delay at the age of 4 or older? I have him in special ed preschool so he can get a head start and he is improving, but I'm still very worried about him.
