Is it possible that my son could be autistic. I have had many great conserns lately about my son who is almost 18 months old. He was recently at his fathers and accidently got splatered with some greese. His fater told me he hardly cryed, which is hard to believe when he had blisters. But the more i read about autism it is believable. There are alot of mental problems that run in his fathers side of the family such as autism and mental retardation. My son also has a horrible anger problem. He is always bighting, head butting, and screaming. He also cant sit down for 2 minutes like most children his age. He just hates to sit still on my lap so it is hard to even attend church. He was around another child his age the other day and really had no social interaction like normal children. He was pushing this child down, taking his toys and bottle. He couldnt just play with the child. Maybe im just over reacting but i think there is something wrong with my son. Someone please help, i need some advice.

I am to scared to ask the doctor. I know there is a possiblity there could be alot more wrong than this and it scares me. I want to get someone elses opinion before i ask my doctor. I worry to much about my son. Well that is one people think. I guess to me i am just trying to protect my son and just make sure of things. Maybe i am just worrying to much. It just looks to me like he has all the signs at only a 18 months.

It doesn't sound like you are over reacting...regardless of what the issues are, there are issues. A doctor could be the first step to getting some help. Don't let fear get in the way of finding ways to make things better for you and your son.
