He Knows Everything, But Can’t Answer Simple Questions.

🗣️ "He Can Tell You the Colors of the Rainbow. But He Can’t Tell You He’s Hungry."

Aarav was three. He could:

• Recite the alphabet forward and backward

• Name 20 dinosaurs

• Count to 100

But when his mother asked, "What do you want to eat?" — silence. When his father asked, "Did you like the story?" — a blank stare.

“We thought he was shy. Or moody. But we also felt something wasn’t lining up.”

🧠 When Smart Doesn’t Equal Social

At Pinnacle® Nagpur, speech and behavioral experts regularly meet children like Aarav — brilliant on the surface, disconnected beneath.

They explain:

“Children with expressive language delay or autism often memorize facts, but struggle with social use of language. They speak at people, not with them.”

These children may:

• Recite but not answer

• Label objects but not request them

• Echo questions but not form their own

This isn't disobedience. It's a disconnect. One that can be repaired.

📞 The Call That Changed Everything

Aarav's parents called 9100 181 181, unsure if they were overthinking.

The response?

"Let’s start with AbilityScore©®. Let’s see where he’s strong — and where he needs support."

They walked into Pinnacle® Nagpur the next day.

💬 What His Parents Want You to Know

"Just because your child speaks doesn’t mean they communicate.
If they can list 100 things — but can’t ask for one —
that’s a red flag."

Early screening made all the difference.
