[AERNet] Diane's echolalia advice

[Shani]

Thanks Diane for your advice.  I got some other feedback similar to yours
regarding how to phrase questions to a child exhibiting signs of echolalia,
and how to prompt the correct response so that he learns not to just repeat
what I have just asked him.  The only concern that I have though, is that
this boy also repeats random things his sister and mother say, even when
they are not talking to him.  He doesn't look toward them when they are
speaking (sometimes we just hear them from the next room), but will continue
working on his task and just say what they just said a couple of times
either immediately after they just said it, or 5 or 10 seconds later.
