The father believes that the child “does not pay attention.” The child has been “slightly behind” his two older, normal siblings (a boy and a girl) in his language development milestones. A pediatrician has treated the child with antibiotics for “ear infections” on a few occasions, but more often for “tonsillitis.” No marked temperature elevations were associated with these episodes, and the child is otherwise healthy. There is no family history of hearing loss, although his father has difficulty understanding speech in groups and has a constant high-pitched tinnitus since serving two years in the artillery.
