No parent is ever prepared to hear that their child is anything other than healthy and happy.
No parent is ever prepared to hear that their child is anything other than happy and healthy, and they can be overwhelmed by uncertainty and anxiety when they are told their child has autism spectrum disorder .Parents are often told ASD is an incurable, lifelong condition, leaving them with the belief that there is nothing they can do that will make a difference.
Just like everyone else, people with autism have an entire lifetime to grow and develop their abilities.Children with ASD have a hard time applying what they have learnt in one setting to other settings, including the home. It is also important to be consistent in the way the family interacts with the child and deals with challenging behaviours.Children with ASD tend to do best when they have a highly structured schedule or routine. Again, this goes back to the consistency they need and crave.
