Many ASD patients have a distinguishing feature, like a genetic disorder. Also, autism usually manifests before the age of three and may last the rest of a human's life; however, signs occasionally improve with age. Autism symptoms can appear for some infants within the first year of life Though the initial symptoms of autism include limited effective communication, a lack of responsiveness to their call, or even a loss of interest in caretakers, many children may grow normally for the first few months and years of their lives, only to become introverted, hostile, or forget their acquired language abilities. Typically, signs appear by the age of two.

Thus, it is best to keep to a predictable pattern when instructing autistic children, wherever this is possible. Each youngster will be aware of what will happen next, allowing them to anticipate it and get ready. The next strategy is to apply image cues. Most autistic kids are primarily visual, which means they absorb information better when it is presented visually rather than just orally or in another way. Children with autism may benefit from using visual clues to help them learn, remember, and communicate. Third strategy, is to use sensory tools, Everybody has distinct preferences for sensory input, and autistic children are no exception. The occupational therapist will help with the assessment of these demands and the use of techniques for children with autism who have unique sensory requirements. The fourth and final strategy that can be used is to endorse the practice of socialization skills. Social skills are a common area in which autistic children struggle. The most challenging social standards are frequently those that are "undefined," in specific. No matter what topic or ability is being offered, social skill practice is essential for kids with autism. Though there are additional strategies, these are the ones that can be used in a family with an autistic child. ]]> 2022-12-16 06:14:41 UTC https://padlet.com/andrear15889/liyp4i8521jmfgrk/wish/2422684051 andrear15889 https://padlet.com/andrear15889/liyp4i8521jmfgrk/wish/2422704843 Furthermore, My son Jacob is 8 years old and was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at the age of two, where signs are more noticeable for him it was speech delay. He is currently taking speech and language therapy to improve his verbal and social communication skills when interacting with others and within the classroom. In Addition, Every single day comes with its own difficulties some are harder than others, as the parent of an autistic child, I need to make sure to maintain the same daily routine for him to not stress out and to remain calm all through out the day. Also, when interacting with him, I tend to not accord with him or understand him sometimes  and will become uneasy and throw a small tantrum. Those are the main struggles I will face while parenting Jacob, just hoping for the best each day. Lastly, I always remember Jacob with this quote " Autism doesn't define me" , makes me see how positive and strong he is towards his condition. No disability can define who you are or what you can accomplish. In other words, you are valuable and can achieve all those goals or dreams towards being successful in life, there is a bright future ahead for everyone just as my son.
