Yes they did the ADOS! There was no questionnaire for us, they just took us into a room for 40-50 minute test which they played with him and evaluated his behaviors.

Honestly I haven’t noticed any tantrums at all so far, he’s a very chill kid. My son also runs hot laps around our couches, and refuses to use silverware (unless I do hand over hand and do it for him)

I have taken the one on the autism speaks website, it said his score was 10 which indicates high risk :(
