Different Causes For Autism

By: ramit soni Home | Health-and-Fitness


There are many theories revolving about the cause for this disorder, but not many of them have bee proved to be significantly true. Some scientists blame the genetics of a child for Autism. They say that a child may be Autistic if there was anyone in his ancestors who was Autistic, but this cannot be generally traced through all generations. Some say that autism is caused by prenatal problems like advanced age in parent, diabetes, bleeding or the use o psychiatric drugs by the mother during pregnancy.
There are some theories involving prenatal reasons like premature delivery of the baby and really low birth weight of the baby. Postnatal theories involving Autism suggest various causes for this disorder. Some postnatal causes are mercury poisoning in the infant, vaccination, viral infection, oxidative stress, amygdale neurons, lack of Vitamin D, lead poisoning and leaky gut syndrome. Giving children Paracetamol tablets to children also has been considered as a possible cause for Autism in children in their first three years of age.
We should understand that Autism affects every one out of one hundred and fifty children and most likely shows within the age of three. It is identified that the neurons that connect the brain cells and the nerve cells are the one’s affected by the disorder. The frontal lobe of the brain which controls the speech and behavioral attributes of a child is the part that is affected by this disorder, thus hampering with the speech and social ability of the child. Sometimes children who are Autistic tend to become violent, not only because they cannot communicate but also because they can misinterpret what others are talking to them. Sometimes a simple smile may seem insulting to a confused child affected by this disorder. Proper care is necessary for this disorder.


Give therapy for your Autistic child

Autism is a disorder that surfaces in the first three years of a child’s life, the symptoms of this disorder are lack of communicative ability and lack of ability to interact with parents and peers. These children of not treated at the earliest possible will not be able to survive the harshness of the world. The parents of such children suffer tremendous emotional trauma which will have an adverse effect on their family especially their other children. These Autistic therapies actually tend provide moral support to the families of these children along with providing various treatments for the children to be at the least able to survive in the world.
These therapies offer educational interventions to the Autistic children who will enable them to study academic programs along with learning functional communication, spontaneity and also enhancing their social skills. There are a lot of play and learn methods that will enable the children to interact with children who are like them and also with children who do not suffer from Autism. There are communication interventions that will enable these autistic children to communicate properly and express what they want to tell and lead a nearly normal.
There are other teaching techniques like the picture exchange technique. This technique involves the child to see and understand that someone is telling them something. It also helps them understand emotions that others are showing him or her. There is a music therapy which will enable the children to enjoy what they learn and also will give them calmness of mine. There is also an animal assisted therapy which involves having a pet dog or cat or any other animal and encouraging the Autistic child to interact with it thereby teaching him or her to show care and affection to another living thing and also teach him or her to show some empathy.
