Symptoms of autism in children?

Today's society is very complicated and relationships are very messy. There are more and more flash marriages and divorces in society nowadays, and there are also many single-parent families and combined families. In the past, there were more social opinions and people's thoughts were more conservative, so combined families and single-parent families rarely appeared in life. There is a local saying that goes like this: "A drop of spit can drown a person." This shows how important public opinion is in society.

In today's society, people's minds are more open, and public opinion does not occupy such a large position in society, so everyone is not worried about the occurrence of these things. Therefore, there are many people who divorce after a flash marriage, and there are also many people in society who divorce after having children. However, this will cause great harm to children, so now there are more and more cases of autism in young children. So what are the manifestations of autism in young children?

Symptoms of autism in children

One of the main symptoms for detecting and diagnosing autism in children is delayed development of language function. Children with this disease often start talking later than normal children. In addition, there are some symptoms that appear before the baby can speak, and these are exactly what are often ignored by parents.

Some early symptoms can be seen in infants as early as one year old and include:

(1) Unable to make eye contact with parents.

(2) The baby is unable to react or respond when the parents call his or her name.

(3) Unable to recognize parents’ gestures and unable to respond normally to external stimuli.

Some atypical symptoms include:

(1) At 12 months old, babies do not yet murmur or make gestures to express emotion.

(2) At 16 months old, babies cannot speak.

(3) At 24 months old, infants are unable to speak sentences of more than two words.

(4) Lack of language or social skills at any age.

Therefore, parents should be responsible for their own actions and for their children. They should think clearly before getting married whether they have the ability to take on some household responsibilities after marriage and whether they can bring happiness to their children after having children. A quick marriage and divorce is a very irresponsible behavior. Divorce after having children is particularly unfair to the children and will cause great harm to them. Children can only grow up healthily with their parents, and they cannot leave either of them. Therefore, for the sake of the children, it is recommended that parents be more responsible and not treat marriage and childbirth as a joke. They should be responsible for themselves, for both parties, and even more so for their children.
