Love autistic children

The number of autistic children is gradually increasing in China. However, there is not an accurate number due to the fact that the condition is often misdiagnosed.

Autism is a wide spectrum disorder, which means that no two autistic individuals display similar symptoms. It is a well-known fact that autistic people are greatly affected by loud noises, the intensity of lighting, ambient temperatures and strong smells. Is there a cure for autism? Unfortunately, the answer is no, but researchers are working on identifying its causes and attempting to come up with feasible measures to eliminate them.
