Autism, what exactly is it? Each year about 200,000 kids are getting an Autism diagnosis or more commonly known as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This article is going to have an in depth explanation of what Autism (ASD) is and how to catch it as early as possible.
Autism/ASD is a developmental disorder that affects the ability to communicate properly and interact with peers socially. A child with ASD will usually have a speech delay and not be able to communicate age appropriately or at all. ASD children often avoid children their own age and play by themselves and avoid interaction as much as possible.
Another commonly asked question is: Is Autism curable? The answer is “No”. There are methods out there that can help ASD but it is a lifelong disorder that requires an actual diagnosis by a doctor or specialist.
