I read your whole thread, and could not find any charastistics of autism. What I did pick up is that your son has some kind of tounge movement issue. This certainly would impede his language abilitys. Your child might be eligible for early intervention services to improve his speech skills, by a speech therapist.
thanks for the response but some time my son looks he understand every thing but some time when i ask him to point some thing he point it wrong like if ask nose he point eye , some time he looks confuse about comands . this normal on 23 month old , when go out side he looks very shy he would say some of his own language if somebody want to talk to him but he cant go to any one to make contect he keep watch them .go close to them play at same place but cant look in there eyes just busy in his play and toys . my mother in law told me my husband i also very shy person ,
Where I am from their is whats called an early intervention programs. For children under 3 years old. If their are any programs like that in your area I would check into it.
Try not to be depressed. You have done nothing wrong. Don't blame yourself either, if your child needs services. Hang in there, your child needs you to be strong.
