Thank you...we're getting a little closer - a possible language processing disorder, but tomorrow we also have the audiologist test him.
Kindergarten will be interesting this year. Sometimes kids are so much better for adults other than their parents!

Now, there's a point not often made. In our extended family we have a couple of handicapped (mentally) children, well, they are adults now and functioning quite well.

They taught us far more than we did them. They taught us to LISTEN, to WAIT for an answer, and not to ASSUME that they didn't "get it".
