Dear laura, your website is great, and i tried some techniques on my 5 yrs old bilingual son, who is also have mild autism.
It worked wonder i thinks so!!! He started asking and answering simple questions like what, where and how many? Is that a —-? I want some advise how to go ahead with that, as he is learning but i am anxious and worried how long will it take him to talk properly like us. Nothing is worse for a new talker than to constantly be corrected by an over-judgmental mommy!
Keep up the good work! Hi I wanted to say thanks for such an informative site. His biggest problems are echolalia, mostly when he is nervous now and pronoun reversal. I am trying to teach him questions. He has never ever asked me why, where, who when ques.
I am trying the things you have suggested but for example every time I ask him to ask his stuffed animal a ques or try to get him to ask the ques he just gives me the answer, its frustrating! Thanks again for a great site! Rachel — Echolalia is soooooo hard to treat! You will likely need to increase your energy level and playfulness to make this new and exciting.
Also look at the age milestones for these questions to emerge listed in the above article. Last, but not least, how does your SLP tell you to work on these things?

He has got a vocab of 50 — 60 words. He has not yet started using sentences. There are a few things like water, tea, chocolate which he asks if he needs them… But many times he cannot verbally communicate what he wants. He will pull me and point towards things he needs or wants us to do.
At times it is really frustrating for both of us as i cant understand what and how he wants things. But when i point to objects he answers what it is, similarly he can name family members… Like grandpa, grandma..
Laura i would like to know where the problem is? Please help. There are several articles here on the website in the expressive language section about learning to use phrases, so take a look at those for more specific ideas. Check out the clips in the order DVD section of the webiste. Hi Laura, My 4. He repeats the same questions with certain persons. For example,when his grandpa injured his leg, my son would repeatedly ask him how he waa feeling…each time he saw his grandpa,he had the same question.
He asks all hus friends about their dads everyday when he meets them. He is almost zilch at keeping a conversation going. He strikes a conversation and talks about what interests him,often oblivious to what the other person is saying to him.
I got him checked by a pshyciatrist, she ruled out Autism merely by looking at him…his body language and eye contact. Please guide me on how do i teach him why and how. Hi Diana. I wish the psychiatrist would have referred you on to a speech-language pathologist so that you can have his language assessed. After all, they asked the thought-provoking questions in the first place, so help their noodle ponder the reasons why.
If your child is a little older, you may ask if they want to look up the answer with you. Researching the answer together can leave your child feeling more empowered. A joyful moment is also a potential added bonus to turning the tables on the why-asker. Sometimes children will try to get the real reason why, but other times, they might settle for a silly reason, and their explanation will undoubtedly leave you both in stitches of laughter.
In the end, the more likely reason for all the why questions is that a simple conversation about the ritual of bedtime tooth brushing—what it looks like, feels like, tastes like—and the connection with you the most important person in their world are all they really want.
It helps them stay nice and cozy, find food to feed their families, and have more babies. Older toddlers between 30 and 36 months often have enough language skills to understand and respond to simple questions. After you answer his question, try asking one back to him to keep those wheels turning.
