Hello. : Hello. I can not tell you why your daughter does this. However, if she is autistic, there is often an increase of repetitive movements (which can include the tongue). Tongue thrusting can also occur in autism.

An assessment by : Child find of your public school district will define her overall developmental levels & any degree of autism she may have for early childhood special education without a diagnosis or toileting. Tongue-flicking may indicate seizure activity, found in children with developmental delays +/- autism. You may ask for another opinion from a child neurologist or developmental/behavioral pediatrician.
