"He sees a counselor now, and he refuses to talk to her. He just sits there. She said she has NEVER had a kid so completely unwilling to communicate."
A therapist friend of mine told me a story about a kid she was seeing who like your son, never said a word. Every week for 10 weeks that kid would come to her office and she would say hello and he would just star at her, never uttering a word.
Then one day, he says "can I ask you a question". Shocked, my friend says of course, anything. The kid then asks "are your eyebrows real?"
My friend busts out laughing and it was then that they were finally able to communicate.
This is a true story!!
