The "autistic spectrum" consists of 5 problems. Each has its own set of characteristics and symptoms.

Autistic disorder. This is what many people think if the word autism. It refers to the problems of social interaction, communication and imaginative play in children under 3 years.

Asperger's Syndrome. These children have no language problem, they tend to score in the range of average or above average in intelligence. But having the same social problems and the limited interest of the children with autistic disorders.

Pervasive developmental disorder not otherwise specified or PDD - also known as atypical autism. It is a kind of reservoir of the category for children, the symptoms of more than one category have, but do not fit into one category.

Rett syndrome. Known only in girls, Rett syndrome develop normally start children. Then they begin to lose their communication and social skills. From age 1 to 4 years, repetitive Clockand replace movements, the purposeful use of hands.

Childhood disintegration disorder. These children develop normally for at least two years and then lose some or most of their communication and social skills.

Some common symptoms that can occur in many, if not all, categories

Problems with social skills.
a) significant problems developing the skills of nonverbal communication, such as eyes and looked into the eyes, facial expressions and body posture.
b) Do not make any friends with children the same age.
c) The lack of interest in sharing enjoyment, interests or achievements with other people.
d) lack of empathy. May for people with autism have difficulty understanding the feelings of another person, such as pain or sadness.

Communication problems.
Speakers delay), or lack of, to learn. Almost half do not and others are delayed, my son 4 was before he spoke his first sentence of 3 words.
b) take the difficulty to take measures in order to initiate a conversation. In addition, peopleThe autism have difficulty following the conversation when it began.
c) stereotyped and repetitive use of language. People with autism often repeat several times a sentence which she belongs.
d) You can very literally. My son, actually hop if told to "jump him".

Limited interests in or play.
a) An unusual approach to pieces. Young children with autism often focus on parts of toys to play like the wheels of a car, rather than with the toys more.
Concern b) with specific topics. Some children need special care in the Hot Wheels, some video games, etc.
c) The need for equality and routines. They react strongly to any form of change
stereotyped behavior d). This can include body rocking and shaking. Other things that people associate automatically.

Language delay is a sign of autism, and in many situations that are not related. Obsessive-compulsive disorder and selection of food are also symptoms. My brother was all, but not the point of visual contact, but the son of my cousin, and who had not (most of them are actually more severe autism, the question of non-contact and stick eye problem).

The daughter of my cousin did not have much else at all until the age of 3 months before her 3rd. It is fair to speak in complete sentences, with clear expression and brighter than their parents. He saw a lot of television and we suspect may have had some influence. She has no signs of autism.

Language delay * * may be a sign, but not all children with language delays are on the autism spectrum. Some may remember me from the top of my head are:
* Not intended as a play with toys (eg, roll on the wheels of the cars instead of on the ground motion)

* Repetitive behaviors (AKA "Stimming") such as flapping hands, blows to the head when nervous or excited.

* Order that the compulsive about things. as more and more to sort blocks by size and color, and angry when they are not the right way ... or have always liked shoes and socks instead of right, this kind of thing.

A good resource, please visit childbrain.com must be found ASD / screening tool for autism can do at home. Simply insert the name and age and to answer questions on behavior and development. This goal can then be printed to take to a doctor for discussion. Dx especially my oldest son is "indicative mild PDD" - exactly what we have 3 dx psychiatrist. I must warn you that if. Falsely marked my youth sabout how "soft TED" before the beginning of the speech. I come to the test after he began to speak, and it was not all autistic characteristics. He is in speech apraxia.

My daughter is 3 years old and had delayed speech. This has nothing to do with autism. You should worry about if your child does not take into account that contact was with the eyes or what to play alone, worried that some children are a bit slow. As I have said before that my daughter has a speech delay and during the 2-times per week and make the grid, and is autistic in any way. Good luck. Do not listen to those who autistic.maybe not see your child to talk and see what they say. My daughter is 7 weeks there, which I think is. and very good. Good luck
