Language delay warnings that your child is giving off are always stressful for parents. But it doesn’t always have to be autism as a result. In today’s video, I’m going to review the signs of autism, and help you understand the difference between when it’s autism or some other sort of speech delays. We’ll cover some of the key skills children should have at certain stages, as well as talk about child developmental milestones that’ll help you identify key events on your own.
Not only will we review the speech delay signs, but we’ll also cover what action steps to take after you’ve spotted some of these developmental delays. After this video, you should be able to recognize and know how to tell if it’s autism or speech delay that’s affecting you and/or other children you may be working with.

🧩 About Mary Barbera 👩‍⚕️
I'm Dr. Mary Barbera and I fell into the autism world more than two decades ago when my first-born son, Lucas, was diagnosed with autism. Since then, I became a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst, Host of the Turn Autism Around podcast (with more than 1 million downloads), and best-selling author of two books (including my newest book Turn Autism Around: An Action Guide for Parents of Young Children with Early Signs of Autism).
In addition to free content, I post daily across KZread, Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. I also offer two online courses for parents and professionals: The Toddler/Preschooler course to help young children ages 1-5 showing signs of autism (with or without a diagnosis) and the Verbal Behavior Bundle course to help kids over the age of 6!
Behavior Analyst BACB CEUs and Early Intervention contact hours are also included for professionals.
Whether you have a toddler showing signs of autism or you're a parent or professional helping an autistic child, I encourage you to subscribe to the Turn Autism Around YT channel and join me for videos almost every day that will help you increase talking, decrease tantrums, and improve eating, sleeping, and potty training!

    My son was speech delayed too until he reached 3.2 years old. I suspected it was because he was always watching tv which is in English, we parents don't speak English in the house. It resulted confusion for him. Now he just turned 5, he's very talkative, talks in english & doing very good in school.

    My younger brother had a speech delay and suddenly out of nowhere at about 2.5 years old he just started speaking fluently. He is now a man in his 30s! It was just a speech delay. My daughter is 20 months old and I was concerned with her but once she started daycare about a month ago she’s suddenly saying way more words and stringing a few together. Not nearly as worried now.

    Thanks. I've learned so much through your videos. My son is two and has been with Early Intervention since he was 16 months. He displays many of the autism signs. They will not do an Autism Diagnostic test until he is between 2 1/2-3 years old. Right now he's been labeled with a 30% developmental delay and speech delay. He receives speech, OT and DT weekly. Hoping to learn more and works with him at home. He isn't talking and his frustration level and tantrums have increased with age. He is learning basic sings but will jot use them consistently. I'm hoping to help him communicate better and learn ways to express his needs and wants.

    Thank you Dr. Barbera. This is a second video from you that I'm watching. My 31m.o. (i)observes and look but doesn't point. He uses his middle (rather than index) finger to explore new things; (ii)can follow some simple instructions like, "put your bottle on the table" or "throw this wrapper into the dustbin". However, I'm unsure if he is actually understanding the language or habituated to the behaviour since these activities are happening daily.; (iii)imitates his elder brother (5yr4m) in making sounds, reading 1 or 2 syllable words, & starting to have little bit of imaginary play like pushing toy cars around, hugging teddy bear. He has some toys where he is more fixated with (e.g., toys with blinking lights & sounds) but can grow tired of them after awhile and move on to another toy. I have not seen him playing with one toy for hours but maybe a little over an hour.

He knows to memorize alphabet from A-Z,can count 1-100,knows the shapes,fruits,vegetables and everything is what he sees he can name that. The only thing is that he has difficutlties of constructing a sentence...Sometimes its frustrating to a mother seeing my son like this..i enrolled him in one nursery school and teachers noticed that he can perform and join acivities/exercises but short span of time only.he sometimes got difficulties of playing around with other kids (I dont know if it's maybe because he is my first bby and he get used to play alone)...

    As a first-time mom, I had a lot of questions that intimidated yet angered me from my son’s pediatrician. He just turned 2, but he can’t point at objects (but can use one finger on a phone/tablet), he can’t really follow many basic commands, he has limited speech (he’s in ST and OT), and resorts to whining or crying to get my attention instead of calling me “Mama”. He also tends to enjoy his own company at his daycare and not play with others as much. It gets frustrating for me at times, because he always points out at what he can’t do verses what he can do and say. He wants to get him evaluated, but he said at max, my son would be seen by six months to a year if I’m lucky. But until then, I’m happy that your video gave me solace instead of feeling Mrs constantly being compared to other toddlers his age.

    My firstborn son did not really speak, he was born in 1988, was always watching. I thought perhaps he was deaf, but he was not. A very silent child, very shy. I was told not to worry about his language, "it would come". He was a select mute at school, had speech therapy. He speaks now mostly to his younger brother. He found out the useful word "fine". I was extremely impressed when he came home from his first day of grade 9 and said, without me asking, that he had someone from his grade 8 class in every one of his classes. Also found out later that the football team policed the cafeteria to watch for people who sat alone, and make sure they were not bothered by anyone. Mostly he was ignored, a silent, biddable child. At 16 he was given cognitive behaviour therapy, which allowed him to drive, get a job. He was finally, at age 18 diagnosed as a highly functioning autistic person. I was lucky, no tantrums, but many bullies bothered him, and he is so "literal". His regular music teacher was off on mat leave and the fellow who took over the band practices said, "If you are even 1 minute late to practice, don't bother coming anymore" My son was late once, due to bullying I learned later, and he did not ho back to band until the next year when his regular teacher was there, which I found out much later. My son gets jokes in movies, but he did not understand the replacement band teacher was joking about not coming back. So he is now a master of faking being "normal"as long as conversation is not attempted, other than to point out a mistake, or point you in the proper direction. I did something right, not everything, but some things.

    I wish there had been more information like this when my son was young. Preschool teachers said he was stupid. Only one teacher said he was highly intelligent but that yes something was being missed. It wasn’t until he was 10 years old when I read a random article about Aspergers that I saw how he seemed to fit the spectrum and finally had a neuropsychological exam and definitive diagnosis. He is 25 now, married with a son of his own and doing pretty well. I do wish, though, that early intervention back then would have known what to look for on the higher functioning end of the spectrum. I did my best raising him with the info available to me then, and even though my son is still struggling with some socializing issues, I’m glad that other kids are now being diagnosed earlier. Knowing the early signs to watch for and getting help early on really can make a huge difference. Thank you for this video.

    I have been stressed out for the last few weeks since my lo is 23 months old and doesn't talk at all but she seems to understand everything pretty much all of our conversation and responds accordingly. This video comforts me a little to know that there are no obvious signs, I will wait for few more months to see if she will start talking. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, it helps people like me to sleep better :)

I have been following all the websites you suggest and for the most part they are ABSOLUTELY beneficial. Thank you. You are wonderful.

    I was interested in hearing this, even though my 2 sons are now 33 and 29. I did not know back in 1988 and 1991 that speech delay was an early sign of autism. When my first son did not talk like the milestones stated, this was something I had never heard about, I didn't know you could have a child that didn't start talking like they should. I still am interested in learning about this, even though they are grown up now. Thank you. At one point, they gave my first son a diagnosis of PDDNOS, pervasive developmental disorder, not otherwise specified. I think that was a way of saying they didn't know what to call it.

    My godson was slow to speak. There was a history of slow verbal development in the family. We had to wait a long time to get him assessed so he did not receive a diagnosis until age 3. There were lots of recommendations but no help available. His mom had a very hard time accepting the diagnosis because she felt that she had done something to make this happen (she hadn't, of course). She preferred to consider him learning disabled. However, he had clear signs of autism. To this day as an adult, he is able to speak but has significant difficulties with sentence structure both verbally and written. He requires supportive employment and is emotionally at risk for stressful events. This video. is awesome and all parents should be aware of these things.
