Autism’s facts
7 facts of which continue to resonate today:
-some clearly autistic children are born to parents who do not fit the autistic parent personality pattern;
-parents who do fit the description of the supposedly pathogenic parent almost invariably have normal, non-autistic children;
-with very few exceptions, the siblings of autistic children are normal;
-there is a consistent ratio of three or four boys to one girl; virtually all cases of twins reported in the literature have been identical, with both twins afflicted;
-autism can occur or be closely simulated in children with known organic brain damage;
-and the symptoms are unique and specific. The two pieces of evidence he originally proposed and subsequently moved away from are that autistic children’s behavioral differences can be observed from the moment of birth, and that there is an absence of gradations of infantile autism, which would create “blends” from normal to severely afflicted. Yet, today, quite the opposite of this latter point is considered true of autism:
-it is a claim commonly found in the literature, and made by my participants, that there are so many individual differences in people with autism, that it is difficult to make generalizations beyond the “core deficits” of social, emotional, and communicative difficulties
autistic children need physical exercises since they are special in many aspects such as discipline. Power 90 Master Series or insanity workout is one of interesting conclusion for this. P90X is a training tool that helps a lot of people in gaining body health.
