AUTISM

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental condition that affects how a person interacts with others and experiences the world. People with ASD often have difficulty with social communication and relationships, such as starting conversations, understanding social cues, or forming friendships. They may also show a range of restricted, repetitive, and inflexible patterns of behaviour and interests or prefer routines and consistency.

Signs usually appear in early childhood, but may become more noticeable as the child grows and social expectations increase. These challenges can affect daily life at home, school, or work. The way autism shows up can vary widely from person to person—some may need a lot of support, while others may live more independently. People with autism can have different levels of language and thinking skills, from very advanced to needing more help with learning.
