    Talk with the pediatrician about being referred to a social worker who will find help for you or at least allay your fears..

    By the way, both of my sons were just a bit over three when they finally figured out potty time. It took them a week each and no accidents. This is a readiness thing. Is he at all interested?

    Sometimes autism and talking problems go hand in hand, but not sure about the potty training. He may be developmentally delayed and just needs time to catch up.
