It can be hard to diagnose autism because so many different factors contribute to the label. There are also different types of autism and different degrees. If you look at someone’s family you can apparently get a good idea about it in a child earlier on in their lives. This will make dealing with it easier.
Key Takeaways:
- Early diagnosis is essential to ensure optimal treatment for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
- Often, it is those closest to a child, often their family, who first notice symptoms.
- Unfortunately, many parents avoid seeking help for their child, even though they sense something might be wrong.
“New research published in the journal Autism reveals children who had frequent interaction with grandparents or who had older siblings were diagnosed sooner with ASD.”
