I'm more impressed with the fact you and your daughter can understand PECS. That is some confusing stuff right there. Good job

We're working on it! She's getting better and better on it. The other day she said "I eat pizza and applesauce and cereal" after lunch, and it was all true.

She says a few words but nothing with consistency besides "mama" and "go".

The use of the talker is awesome, and I'm glad SOMEONE's damn school is willing to help. We lucked out a bit, as much as you can on the Spectrum I guess, where our son is high functioning(though other neuro developmental problems hinder him a bit) and we're having no luck with his school. They refuse to acknowledge his being bullied (and we've talked to other parents with kids in the school in the same situation), refuse to give him an IEP, etc.
Edit - I forgot to include congrats on her using the talker successfully. Also, if she's anything like our son, once that button is found...there will be no other buttons.

Then when he was about 4 it seemed like he just forgot how.

Our school district is one of the best in the state and she's been with the same teacher since she was 15 months old. She'll be off to a new school next year for a special education kindergarten because she'll have aged out of her current school, and it makes me quite sad.
