Autism causes people who suffer from impaired development of the brain normally work in sosialitasnya capabilities and also its ability to communicate with his interlocutor.
Causes, Factors, and Types of Autism
A health expert, Neil K. Kaneshiro, MD., MHA., Mentions that "Autism is a physical condition associated with abnormalities in the biological and performance of a person's brain."
A newborn baby can not be adjudged that he suffered from autism at birth, because this condition can only be known when the child stepped on the second year of his life.
Most parents assume that their children suffered from autism due to vaccines and drugs that have caused her son suffered from these disorders.
However, several studies of autism states that it is not true. In fact, The American Academy of Pediatrics and The Institute of Medicine (IOM) also confirmed that a child affected by autism is not due to vaccines and other pharmaceuticals.
However, autism is more due to chromosomal abnormalities in the child and also the problems that occur in the nervous system (neurological) and also genetic or hereditary factors of the child.
There is also a source as saying that there is a suspicion that led to a child suffering from autism, but it is unsubstantiated, ie diet, mercury poisoning, the body's inability to consume vitamins and minerals in particular, are sensitive to certain types of vaccines.
Based on available evidence, mostly boys who suffer from autism compared to women and there are several types of abnormalities in the physical development of one's own, for example:
1. Asperger's syndrome, like autism, but normal language development.
2. Rett syndrome, unlike autism, only experienced by women.
3. Childhood disintegrative disorder, a very rare condition in which the child can only train learning ability up to age ten years, after which he will lose the skills he had learned.
4. Pervasive developmental disoreder - Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS), also called atypical autism.
The symptoms
Autism disorder can only be known when the child was two years old and mostly from people with autism will behave as if he has his own world without being aware of the presence of others.
Difficulties in social interaction with their environment, speech is slower than normal people, can not talk for a long time, no eye contact with the speaker, always repeating the word has been uttered, and also difficult to communicate both verbally and non-verbal .
A child with autism had levels that exceeded kesensitifitasan of normal human beings, especially the sense of sight, hearing, touch, smell, or taste.
This is demonstrated when they get annoyed with the noise then he will close his ears tightly.
They are more like something that's it, people with autism will be more focused on one thing alone would suppose he likes music, then he will more quickly learn things related to music only.
Doing the same motions over and over, showed something of excessive interest on a particular object.
Autism, Deficiency or Excess?
Maybe autism is actually giving an advantage to the sufferer, it is evident from the case in, Jacob Barnett, a 12-year-old child in America who can solve the theory of the "Big Bang" (the theory of mathematical concepts that are very complicated formula), and after a series of tests it turns out he has an IQ of more than Albert Einstein (170).
Jacob suffered from Aspergers syndrome, Kristine Barnett, mother of Jacob was surprised when his son could not say a word until he turned two years old.
As a result of the acquired problems, Jacob became a lecturer at Indiana University. He teaches on matters relating to the world of mathematics (calculus, aljebra, geometry, and trigonometry) are possible for our own lesson is very boring.
Not only that, he also is developing the theory of relativity of Einstein today.
