Mrs. Best said, âCome in, Hannah.â
And there was Anthony, sitting at that big, black
piano and playing a song I never heard before.
Wow! I canât do that and Tommy canât either.
So you know, when it comes to music,
Anthony really is the best boy.
Autism spectrum disorder (a neurobiological disorder) includes Autism Disorder, Pervasive Developmental Delay and Aspergerâs Syndrome. The precise relationships among these disorders is still being sorted out.
According to the National Institutes of Health, individuals with autism can be characterized primarily by developmental difficulties in verbal and non-verbal communication, social relating and leisure and play activities. People with these spectrum disorders often exhibit unusual repetitive movements and resistance to change in routines.
Higher functioning children (often labeled Aspergerâs Syndrome) may have language but have poor social skills, language problems and difficulty with play. They often have supersensitivity to sound and touch, temper tantrums and other erratic behaviors. They may have fixations and obsessive behavior. They occasionally have extraordinary skills not exhibited by most children.
These disorders typically last throughout a personâs lifetime though symptoms range from very mild to quite severe. Although there is no cure, with early intervention, these symptoms can be modified.
