👩‍👦 “He Doesn’t Speak Much… But Maybe He’ll Start Soon?”

It’s one of the most common questions parents in india ask — quietly, cautiously, often with worry:

“Is my child just late to talk or is it something more serious?”
“She plays alone all the time — is that her nature, or is it a red flag?”

In aprilAutism Awareness Month — it’s more important than ever to address this openly.

Experts at Pinnacle® say:

“Delays can be part of a phase — but often, they’re the first signs of autism spectrum disorder. Waiting without screening is the biggest mistake parents make.



🧩 Signs That It May Be More Than Just a Phase

Here are subtle but important signs to look for in children between 1.5 and 4 years:

  • Doesn’t respond to name by 9–12 months
  • No pointing, waving, or imitation gestures
  • Shows limited eye contact or shared interest
  • Lines up objects, repeats actions or words
  • Struggles with transitions or loud environments
  • Delayed speech or echolalia (repeating without meaning)

If you’ve noticed 2 or more of these, early screening is strongly recommended.
