My son is 2 1/2, and we have to "BATTLE" him for naps and bedtime! He also doesn't mind us, and when he is into something we don't want him doing, he goes "deaf" even though we are YELLING at him (doesn't flinch, turn his head...nothing; NO reaction). We have found out that these are symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorders, which includes "full" autism (of course LOL), Asperger's, and PDD-NOS (a short term for Pervasive Developmental Disorder - Not Otherwise Specified), which is what my son has. Food allergies play a HUGE factor in these conditions, but they may not show up on a "regular" allergy test, because the foods simply alter the way the child's brain is working. Please email me, or call me, and we can discuss our children more thoroughly than we can here. Also, I'm curious as to whether your daughter is verbal, or if she seems to have "lost" any of her vocabulary.
Love to hear from you soon! ~J.~
