Are children with autism mentally retarded?

Not necessarily, the intelligence of children after early autism is the same as that of normal children, if autism is too severe, intelligence will be affected, but Guangzhou Liuyi makes the children's hospital very experienced in autism.

Due to the lack of awareness of autism in the whole society, many parents regard autistic children as "mentally handicapped". Children with autism generally show symptoms at the age of two to three years old, manifested as difficulty in language communication, like to be alone, no eye contact with others, etc., many parents usually think that the child is deaf or "mentally handicapped", lock them in their homes or send them to rural relatives to be raised, resulting in autistic children suffering for life.

Children with autism and intellectual disabilities have some similarities, such as speech communication disorders with others, speech comprehension disorders, learning disabilities, etc., but there are still big differences between the two. Although children with autism are often accompanied by comprehensive developmental delays, their development is uneven in all aspects. For example, some autistic children can not even take care of themselves, but they have strong numeracy or drawing, ** ability, and some children have almost no language ability, but they are outstanding in memory, color recognition, shape recognition, etc.

Children with intellectual disabilities are usually stunted in all aspects of development, but their development is more balanced in all aspects, and their development in perception, social interaction, interests and language is directly proportional to their IQ.

Psychologists said that some autistic children have slower mental development, but their main problem is that they are unwilling to learn because of their rejection, unlike children with intellectual disabilities who are willing to learn but can't. Moreover, autistic children are extremely socially weak, and their social skills and initiative are much lower than those of mentally handicapped children.

Autism is not characterized by a low level of IQ, but by a lack of core competencies in society.

Definitely not! Be optimistic!

There is a difference1, autism does not necessarily have a problem with IQ, and some are very high.

2., mental retardation, it is really a matter of IQ.

There are many situations that have both, that is, autism and mental retardation.

Autism is also called autism, autistic people are self-isolated, unwilling to interact with anyone, unable to verbally express needs and pain, and lack due emotional responses, and have been engaged in a stereotyped, repetitive and coercive behavior.

But even so, we can't evaluate autistic people as fools, many of them have a certain talent and talent, painting or mathematics or physics or finishing, etc., there are also wise people, and there are also great achievers, but they are self-isolated, not good at communicating with others, and their ability to cooperate with others is very poor, and they themselves are often very distressed, and over time they can only close themselves off.

So they are not fools, they are more like children from the stars.

Of course, it doesn't have to be a fool, it is not suitable for the embodiment of human sophistication, and there are two possibilities to be ahead or behind. The IQ of the former is superior to that of ordinary people, and those who disdain the false corruption of human feelings and are powerless to change it, so they may have certain physical and mental problems.

Who told you that autism is stupid? Autism, I haven't understood it, and I'm not a doctor, but I've seen it in the TV series, it's okay, it's true, there is indeed a problem, it should be psychological problems that account for the majority! However, autism is understood literally, it means self-isolation, I don't like to communicate with people, I don't like to contact people!

However, there is also a genius for autism! If God closes a door for you, it will open a window for you! If one side is insufficient, there will be another outstanding ability!
