What exactly is the "autism stare" people keep talking about?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stare not at you: Sometimes kids seem to zone out , stare but not at people, almost as though they are"snowed" . This is felt by some to be the effect of maldigested products of casein &/or gluten that behave like endogenous opiates-but this in controversial.
