hello,im new to the site, my daughter has autism and as april is autism awareness month i just wanted everyone to have a little knowledge on the condition

What is autism?
Autism is a lifelong developmental disability that affects the way a person communicates and relates to people around them.

Children and adults with autism have difficulty relating to others in a meaningful way. Their ability to develop friendships is generally limited as is their capacity to understand other people's emotional expression.

People with autism can often have accompanying learning disabilities but everyone with the condition shares a difficulty in making sense of the world.

There is also a condition called Asperger syndrome which is a form of autism used to describe people usually at the higher functioning end of the autistic spectrum.

so when a child in a shop is behaving very badly please dont stare and judge a parent as there may be a reason the parent can not control that child.

hello sara , my eldest son thomas 12yrs old has autism and we are having concerns about zoey 3 years old.

hope to talk to you more soon..

see you from kerry..
