This video was taken of Hunter when he was approximately 16 months old. While some places in it are normal toddler responses you can also see the social concerns he had. I recorded this to just see how he would be in responding to his name, how he would respond back as far as facial expressions (smiles, giggles etc), the eye contact etc etc. You can see initially that he is into his show but once he begins to crawl around the interaction with me is very minimal, little peaks here and there and no smiles. We were scheduled to see the Developmental Pediatrician soon and after recording it I realized how important it was to document his behavior. I can describe his behavior but seeing it in person gives a much clearer picture. The doctor was very happy to have a chance to see a glimpse of him in his every day life and it was very helpful in his diagnosis.
