Our brain is collecting information about the world around us all the time.Itgets information from what we see,hear, touch, taste and smell. The brain works out what all this means and then we show a particular emotion (特别的情感) to all that information.
But children with autism (自闭症) are different from us. In fact, children with autism can get all the information, but they are not able to understand it all.
★Their ears can hear normally, but their brain cannot understand what others are saying. Sometimes, sounds that we like are far too loud to them. They may feel really upset by the everyday noises and willtry to shut them out of their ears.
★Their eyes can see normally, but some things seem to hurt their eyes; some things seem to be very interesting.
★Sometimes they are so interested in looking at something that they can't notice what else is going on around them.
★They may be more comfortable learning in their own homes or in a special class at school.
★They may not be able to learn much about a lot of things, but they may know a large amount about one or two things.
★They will have trouble communicating by talking, listening and watching, or understanding what people mean when they are talking.
★People who have autism are born with it, but the signs that they are having problems usually do not show up until they are at least a year or more older.
Everyone needs to feel loved. If you have someone in your family or in your class who is autistic, you can help him by encouraging and caring. Try to give them love. It will make them feel much better.
