Learning to develop & communicate

“Growth” is an integral part of our life, and we all like to experience the growth in all aspects of our lives. But, unfortunately, not all of us get to experience this growth in an identical fashion as we all are created with many different and limited human conditions, that limit or slow down our abilities to develop, whether we like it or not. One such human condition is autism spectrum disorder (ASD) related to a form of speech and communication disorder. This autism spectrum disorder appears to affect about 60 children/10,000 under the age of 8 years and is shown before the age of three in one or more of the following domains: (1) social interaction; (2) communication; and (3) restricted, repetitive, and stereotyped patterns of behavior, interests, and activities.
