These disorders usually become apparent early in life, and continue into adulthood. The term Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is now commonly used to describe autism, Asperger’s syndrome, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder – Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS) which is also known as atypical autism.
Children with ASD demonstarate difficulties across 3 areas of functioning: interacting with others, communicating with others, and interests and behaviours. These children can have a very narrow, or unusual, set of interests; the exhibit behaviours that may be different to other children; and they experience difficulty coping with change. The daily experiences of children with ASD can vary enormously. Some children require high levels of support, lifelong care, and supervision. With help, other children with ASD can learn to function independently.
