Hello! My mother has just told me that we expect a visit of her friend. They haven’t seen each other for many years. Her friend has a child who is autistic. I have never seen an autistic child before. I think I am little bit afraid of them. I don’t even know how autistic children look like. Are autistic children violent?
Hello! You shouldn’t be afraid of autistic children. Such children are just special but they are not violent. Sometimes they perform repetitive movements, such as rocking, spinning or hand-flapping but sometimes they don’t. If you treat him as any other child you will se they can be very interesting to communicate with.
