Autism: is a condition whereby kids see and experience the world differently

Autism is a condition whereby kids see and experience the world differently from the way other kids see. Autistic children experience communication difficulty which prevents them from expressing themselves and using words. Autistic children are usually lonely and it is difficult for them to talk with people without help. I felt for them because they are really in a very difficult situation. Imagine being in their situation. Imagine you are somebody who has all the thought other kids have, has the feelings, aspirations and everybody else has, but can't communicate it to other kids and other people.       Their five senses are working like everybody else. They collect all the information from their surroundings, but their problems is their unusual way of responding to what is around them. Noises and normal sounds may really bother someone with autism. When they hear noises they often cover their ears an attempt aimed of not hearing the noises that are bothering them. Children with autism do not even understand when some one is smiling and happy. It is very difficult for them to associate smiling with happiness. A child with autism has the problem of making the link between words and their meanings. Their situation is really frustrating and difficult. They can't understand what their parents are saying too them.  To communicate by uttering few incoherent words, and move their hands and often have the tendency of becoming easily like changes in routines. Another trait of children with autism is the habit of staying one routine or schedule. Any change in their routine schedule makes them angry. If someone has autism his or her brain has trouble with an important job which is understanding the world.  Every day, your brain interprets the sights, sounds, smells, and other feelings that we encounter. If your brain couldn't perceive these things, you would have trouble doing anything.  Children with autism can change what their senses collect into words. There is still a heated debate about autism. Some people attribute to be caused by the children vaccines such as the MMRs. Others think is caused by mercury which the children have exposed to. In conclusion there is concrete cause of autism at this point.
