How do you know if your child has autism?
assistant
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by difficulties in social interaction, communication, and repetitive behaviors or restricted interests. Symptoms typically appear during the first three years of life, but can emerge at any age. Common signs include difficulty responding to their name, lack of eye contact, not pointing when asked to, and unusual responses to sensory stimuli. If you are concerned that your child may have autism, it is best to consult with a doctor for an evaluation.
