Autism is a developmental disability which usually occurs at birth. They say, a split nanosecond of no oxygen during childbirth would cause a child to have autism. Some says pollution, some says chemicals from the food the mother took during pregnancy. Many say this, and that.. and this… however there are many studies conducted on why a child would have autism, still the reason can’t be found. Children with autism has no social interactions skills and doesn’t look at the eyes when spoken to. No verbal communication. Echolalia or children could say what is seen on the TVs, including the sound, the tone and even the twang as in ECHO. However, they don’t know the meaning of what they have said. They are in ORDER… they need to be in association of what they have used to have. A single change would disorient them. Hand flapping… sensitive to noise or sound, smell or even weather condition. I have been wanting to post this but I am very very busy.. finally I got sometimes to urge to people to please be considerate of children and adults who have autism. They have their own world that’s true, but they have feelings too and they are like us who feels love and care. They need us to understand them more.

Hi, Thank you for sharing information about autism. We should try to understand these people and should behave kindly and softly with them. Being rude with them is against humanity. The family members of such people must be very worried about them.

i hear you, I've seen some autistic children playing at my local park, so many people have it. I think we need to all be aware of Autism and how it affects so many people, so many people are rude to autistic children because they are slow and it makes me sick i once saw an autistic child take away an iPhone from a lady because he wanted to play on some apps that there mom usually lets them play, and the lady just flipped and was so inconsiderate of the autistic child, even after the apologies of the mom she still was screaming and yelling. Some people just don't understand how lucky we are to be healthy and that the autistic kids cant help it.
