Come on everyone "REACH OUT, TOUCH A HEART"
Definition of Autism:
Autism is a brain development disorder that impairs social interaction and communication, and causes restricted and repetitive behavior, all starting before a child is three years old.
Autism affects many parts of the brain; how this occurs is poorly understood. Parents usually notice signs in the first two years of their child's life. Early intervention may help children gain self-care and social skills, although few of these interventions are supported by scientific studies. There is no cure. With severe autism, independent living is unlikely; with milder autism, there are some success stories for adults,and an autistic culture has developed, with some seeking a cure and others believing that autism is a condition rather than a disorder.
