You should get diagnosis before doing anything else. After age 2, a diagnosis by an expert is very reliable. The sooner autism spectrum disorder is diagnosed, the better.

It could be some other problem. Relying on what kindergarten or you think is not enough. Pushing child into some special kindergarten before any diagnosis is irresponsible.

psychologist seems to think that he also has autism, however the process is being speeded up a bit as they don't think the kindergarten is the right place for him.
