I have a dcb, age 4 this month, who is displaying some different behaviors. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with behaviors like these.
1. Ticks and grimaces
2. Cannot put on or take off shoes, socks, or pull up and down his own undies/pants although will go potty when reminded constantly.
3. Loves blocks, legos, cars, trains and is very imaginative in playing with these things.
4. Repeats things over and over- especially questions-even after I answer him repeatedly.
5. Very immature for his age and cannot carry on a simple conversation. Me: What did you have for breakfast this morning before you got her dcb? Dcb: Chicken noodle soup. (Which is what I'm fixing for lunch as are talking)
6. No concept of time. At 9 in the morning asks if it is rest time, we have rest time at 1:30pm every day.
7. Have to repeat instructions multiple times before he'll respond.
I don't know, his dcm does everything for him and never asks him to even try so I have been working with him on things like pulling down his own pants to go potty. Sometimes he does fine but sometimes it seems too much for him. Anyone dealt with a child with these behaviors?
Mom says she had him tested and he's not autistic but it seems to me he has maybe a mild case of tourettes? It's frustrating behavior sometimes.
