The Puzzle Of Autism

The Puzzle of Autism
“Autism spectrum disorder(Asd) is just a general term for a group of complex disorders of brain development.”1 Some people with the disorder are nonverbal or verbal.

Dillan for example outsmarted his whole class in math when he was in the seventh grade. Dillan may not communicate like everyone else but he is just as intelligent as they are. So don’t discriminate they are just like you just a little
