Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Michael's Condition:
Michael is a 7-year-old child, who was referred by the Pediatrician for an analysis following his 2-year-old exam. In the beginning of Michael's development, his mother stated that she has seen similar delays to the doctor's observations and has similar concerns. One of the major concerns is that Michael will not respond to his name when called even if he is only a foot or less away and does not even turn his head towards the voice. Secondly, he has difficulties in following simple instructions, especially one step directions like come here, sit down, or pick up. In addition to failing to use words to say or request what he wants, Michael only repeats a word that is modeled every once in a while. Third, when playing around other children in the two groups, he does not even notice the other children, plays by himself, and does not really play. The other concerns in Michael's situation include difficulties in playing with toys, seem unable to make eye contact or imitate his mother, and tend to be more attached to some items that he is to his parents and other familiar people.

Therefore, he is probably suffering from a condition that needs proper diagnosis and effective treatment plan.
