AUTISM:”UNDERSTAND,ACCEPT,SUPPORT”

AUTISM IS NOT A DISABILITY;IT’S A DIFFERET ABILITY

Autism is one of the most common developmental disorders in children. It is a condition that affects how the brain works. Signs of autism can usually be seen from 18 months old, but it is difficult to diagnose before that.

Autism affects a child’s ability to communicate and interact with others. The best time to start treatment is at 2 or 3 years old because the brain develops the most in the first three years. However, many parents do not recognize the early signs, so treatment is often delayed. Early treatment can help children overcome many challenges.

Autism is a spectrum disorder, which means every child is different. No two children have the exact same symptoms. This is why treatment should be tailored to each child’s needs.

Unfortunately, there is still social stigma around autism. Many people do not understand it, and some parents do not allow their children to play with autistic kids. People may stare or act insensitively, making life harder for children with autism.

Parents and therapists also need to work together because every autistic child is unique. Their symptoms and progress will be different from others.

There is no quick fix for autism. Parents must have the right expectations and stay patient. The key to helping a child is consistency, love, and early support.
