Guest guest Posted July 16, 2002 Report Share Posted July 16, 2002 My youngest child (2.5 with a speech delay - undiagnosed) has taken to watching TV upside down. He lays on the floor and tilts his head back at the neck (does NOT look comfortable) or he bends at the waist and watches between his legs. He doesn't always do this - seems to be when he's bored. Yesterday, when he did it I turned off the TV and told him " No upside down, Riley " and he turned back over. He only tested this 2x. Any ideas? I searched a bit online and found a couple of people on autism sites talking about it more as it relates to SI. He doesn't spin, but he does jump quite a bit (tho it's more of a game - he puts the pillows down from the couch and jumps over them like he was playing human checkers!). I'm taking him on Friday to have his hearing checked (and I find myself praying he's got a hearing problem), then we'll go for a speech evaluation, then to a Dev Ped - so I'm on the path. He's quite different from my older son, dispraxic and 4 (tomorrow!!). Anyway - thanks for the advice in advance. You are all so supportive here!
