Autism

Autism is very hard disorder to understand. It affects the brain's normal development of social and communication skills. They could have impaired social interactions, impaired verbal and nonverbal communication, problems processing information from the senses, and restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior.

People with autism seem to be indifferent and remote and are unable to form emotional bonds with others. They will have not respond correctly to sensory experiences. They will show differently in each individual child. Like a child may have little trouble learning to read but show extremely poor social interaction. Each child will show social, behavioral, and communication patterns that are individual but fit into the overall diagnosis.

Children with autism do not follow the normal patterns of child development. For some children, the signs of future problems may show from birth. Parents might see that their child is starting to reject social contact, act strangely, and even lose language and social skills that they have already learned. The difference between a child with autism and other children the same age is more noticeable.

Autism is found in every country and region of the world and in families of all racial, ethnic, religious, and economic backgrounds. The sooner the disorder is diagnosed, the sooner the child can be helped through treatments. Pediatricians, family physicians, day-care providers, teachers, and parents may initially let go signs, thinking the child is just a little slow and will catch up later. Although on that note the impact of lessening the symptoms and having a higher chance of allowing the child to grow and learn new things. There is about 50 percent of children are diagnosed before kindergarten.
