How Autism affect people and Family life

Autistic Children may not achieve the same level of development as their companions or peers, or they may show a loss of language or social that may be developed previously. 

Let me give you an example, A 2 or 3-year-old child with autism may show interest in simple games. Similarly, A 4-year-old child with autism may feel the company of other children enjoying. A child with autism may have communication difficulty talking or interacting with other with others or may not like you or any person at all.

Autism can affect your surroundings, parents, caregivers, or siblings in different manners. When a diagnosis is received by a child, some of the caregivers and parents may not even be able to support their child because of the location they are present or living, their financial conditions, or lack of services availability. Research from 2009, it is shown up how to differ are the emotional conditions of a mother of a child with ASD and a mother of a child without ASD. The mother with ASD affected child comes out to be more stressed and feeling tired than a mother of a non-autistic child. In addition, research says: that the mother of autistic adults and teens was more likely to have ‘Cortisol’ (the stress hormone).

An Autistic child may cause an additional strain on partnerships and marriages. Apart from the financial conditions and emotional stress, a child with Autism becomes additional overthinking sometimes. In terms of making decisions, it can be difficult for caregivers and parents to have exact thinking about support and accommodations.

However, some siblings feel over frustrated with their autistic sibling and the concentration of their parents.

Effect of having autism may vary from financially as well. Parents and caregivers has to spend too much of money in treatments, physiotherapies and education of autistic children or adults.

So, the barriers autistic people and their parents face is often causing their environment stressful and overwhelmed. Where a correct and early diagnosis causes the beginning of the understanding and self-acceptance in autistic people journey.
