Hi there,

I'm afraid I can't help with the OLSAT. But I will say - you are not alone on the filter issue. I actually think it's pretty common. And for sure our DS has the same thing. The things that pop out of his mouth sometimes ....

Best of luck helping your grandson,

Sue

You do not mention how old your grandson is, making it difficult to gauge whether this may be a normal phase. That said, given that you are concerned about his lack of a filter when speaking, your grandson may one of many people who may benefit from direct teaching regarding social interactions (information and behaviors which others may acquire easily and naturally through casual observation and everyday situations). This article may be of interest.
