My health visitor told me a few weeks ago that I don’t tell off Harrison enough when he’s doing something naughty which I do agree with as I never do. It’s just he doesn’t even acknowledge me when I speak to him. It’s like I’m not even there😕 Since we’ve been stuck inside for a while he’s been getting into things that he shouldn’t and I’ve been trying to tell him no but...nothing. He doesn’t look my way nor does he ever show any signs that he understands me. We were in the process of getting him assessed for autism before covid19 took over everything. He can’t talk or say any words either. Does anyone else have any experience with this?
It’s like he’s in his own little world and doesn’t react to anyone outside of his own little world. xx
@kathleenc my sons the same. He is 2 in July and still doesn't respond to his own name. No matter what I do or try he just seems stuck. I get how difficult it can be xx
Maya use to pretend she couldn’t hear me if she knew she shouldn’t be doing something.
My advice would be to take him away from the situation hun, distraction xx
Yeah I usually just take him away from what he’s doing as I don’t see the point in telling him off as he doesn’t understand me. xx
My boy is the same can't speak, doesn't understand what I am saying to him and just either plain blank ignores me or looks right through me. I can be so difficult but I have to tell myself that he may be able to understand xx
