We read through "the book" last night and we still don't see it. Now I'm trying to look up ways in which to help frustrated toddlers. Should I be doing this much work?!? Thanks guys.

He can't help it if he is smarter than the daycare providers but does not have the language expertise to express that in complete paragraphs yet. The way Silas repeats words is not vacant and lacking in meaning the way an autistic kid would. He repeats for emphasis and out of frustration that either A) people are not doing what he wants or B) that he can't fully articulate all the nuance he wants to. If you are really worried about it or those quacks, talk to a trusted pediatrician about an evaluation (it won't hurt him). But I honestly think those people are the ones who create labels for kids because they don't fit into the behavioral norms that make their jobs easier. (And guess what? Sometimes people get UNEXPECTEDLY hungry, even after they've had breakfast). Second of all, I am remiss in not congratulating you on posting again! I always read along; I should comment more often.

Ask her if any of those other kids can play drums. Does that mean they are autistic? Some kids have imaginary friends. Silas has his quirks but he is a kid and a fine one at that. You should send him to daycare with an evolution t-shirt. Besides, it could be worse. . . I ate bugs. Silas is fine. Ask her if any of those other kids can play drums.
