Autism: Autism is characterized by pattern of behaviors and social communication deficits.There may be repetitive patterns or ritualistic behaviors.The improvement with time and therapy helps. Developmental changes aid if therapy continued. The symptoms don't get worse with age. Discuss with a good psychiatrist about aba therapy as that is really helpful all the best.
