Hi...by what you quote I feel that your kid might be having a -

1. Deaf mutism - where in the ears and hearing need to be checked.

2. He might be having - Attention deficit hyperactivity - this needs to be evaluated.

3. Language delay

I suggest you get in touch with a developmental paediatrician regarding this.
