Because so far what you wrote is very similar to what we went through but our health center is brilliant. My son was not talking at age 2 so he was seen by the speech therapist and from there we did the 6 weeks child development assessment and based on this he got the diagnoses of Autism at age 3. Your son is not at all too young to be diagnosed! Go with your instincts and push them a bit if you are not satisfied with the level of service you are receiving! Let your voice to be heard, you are the mother you know your child best. About the makaton, it can be very useful, ask the health center if they run any course where you can learn the signs, there are also books and videos available. What you can also try and will probably work best for your son is the PECS which is comminicating with the help of pictures, here a link to see how it works http://www.autism.org.uk/picturesymbols and here is an example http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AUTISM-SENSORY-DOWNS-144-PECS-BLACK-COMMUNICATION-BOOK_W0QQitemZ120536640085QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Toys_Creative_Educational_RL?hash=item1c108b2a55 If you need anything please feel free to mail me :) Can I ask you what they said after the 6 weeks child development assessment?

We enable them, if they take advantage of us, our inaction and indifference is enabling them. If we are unhappy with our government it is our responsibility to do something about it, to change it. Yes, the government should care about its people. In the 21st century, in "the greatest country in the world" its a pretty sad state of affairs if you even have to ask that question. "Let freedom ring with a shotgun blast" ! This is a government "for the people, by the people". We enable them, if they take advantage of us, our inaction and indifference is enabling them.

HEALTH is also one of those bands (not one guy) that you should see live and their electrical prowess (although I bet the guitarist from the Mae Shi built their vocal thingy) with their homemade instruments.. Very progressive. What would you consider progressive? I am very curious.. @Jazza12319 beats repeat brethren, thats what makes it a beat.. would you prefer some random hits here and there?
