Appropriate treatment to be given to a child with autism
In most cases, autistic children start by having language development problems and thus communication therapy is used to treat them. It involves the use of speech therapy to help the autistic patients gain the ability to speak. Picture exchange communication system is another kind of communication therapy. This method enables patients to communicate using pictures that represent ideas, items or activities. All they have to do is learn how to associate a certain picture to a certain need and can thus hand over the picture to their caregiver and relay their information.. Clearly there is hope for individuals affected by autism and they can now be able to lead a near normal life
