Guest guest Posted November 19, 2010 Report Share Posted November 19, 2010 Mine were writing letters at age one. Some believe that certain misfunctions in the brain cause the brain to work extra fast, which can cause nerve death, but they appear intelligent from this fast pace. My kids were writing without talking at age 1 and 2, and barely talking at age 3. But my other children on the spectrum did not do these letters and numbers obsessions. The two that did, focused on letters and numbers way too much, and it's beleived to be from Strep and/or Bartonella because treatment for these decreases their obsessions for letters and numbers. Some professionals will diagnose it as hyperlexia. If your child is just learning, but not focusing on letters and numbers obsessively, than that is different. Some with autism can type on a computer, and sound like geniuses, with perfect grammer, large words, etc., but then not talk, nor socialize. There are lots of variances in those with autism.
