The sooner young children can be diagnosed and treated for Autism, the better the outcome. Early speech-language indicators of Autism in children ages 36-60 include:
The child has no speech, is echolalic (repeats what everyone else says), has pronoun reversal, shows abnormal tone and/or rhythm in speech, does not volunteer information or initiate conversation, and may ask repetitive questions you have already answered.
If you have concerns about a child that has these symptoms, you might want to refer the child and/or family to professional help.
