social networking site for parents who have children with autism

helpful for parents with children who have autism

The earliest social indicators are easy to miss because they are reduced or absent in children who are later diagnosed with autism. Primarily for parents/caregivers. Although there is some variability in typical development, these social behaviors should develop by 9 to 12 months of age. Indicate how often the child displays each behavior. If the child obtains a rating of Never or Seldom on any item, consider it a red flag and seek further evaluation.
