How can autism be dealt with?
It depends on which component of autism you are refering to. A deficit in language, socialization and language are typically present in order to get a diagnosis of autism. I am a behavioral interventionist and work with children with autism daily. I would highly recommend researching Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to gain more information. Essentially, ABA addresses each component of autism from a behavioral perspective and has been clinically shown to have significant effects on the treatment of children with autism. This is by far the most widely used method (behaviorally speaking) for children with autism.
Do you say autistic children or autism children?
You would say Autistic children.Although person-first language is considered politically correct for most disabilities, for example 'person with Down Syndrome', with autism identity-first language is considered to be correct. Thus it is in fact 'Autistic children' and not 'children with autism' - although always respect the individuals preferred term.Identity-first language isn't defining someone by their condition but recognizing it as part of who they are, much like you would say 'gay person' or 'African-American person'.

Research has found out that animals think the way like autism savants. Even some people with autism claimed that their thinking processes are like an animal's. Animals are visual thinkers, they store their memories with pictures. In other words, animals make visual associations, just like autistic people. Fear is the most important emotion in animals, especially prey animals as sheep or horses. Fear is also the main emotion in autistic children. Please see related links below for a page about autism in animals.

What is the name of the person studies autism?
A person with autism is said to be autistic. There are also specific forms of autism, such as Asperger's Syndrome, but there is no handy description for such a person, who would still just be called autistic, not Aspergeristic. A person with autism can be described as "a person with autism" or "an autistic person." Some individuals prefer the people-first phrasing - "a person with autism" - because they do not want others to think that autism is the entirety of their being. A person with Asperger's Syndrome is usually not described as autistic because it is not autism. Both autism and Asperger's Syndrome are autism spectrum disorders, also known as pervasive developmental disorders. Some people with Asperger's Syndrome refer to themselves as "Aspergians" or "Aspies," but others do not like them.

How to Understand Autism: Children Vaccinations?
When it comes to understanding the rising prevalence of children with autism, one of the fist topics that individuals who are not familiar with this condition raise is the supposed correlation between childhood vaccinations and children with autism. While is true that there is still a great deal that we do not know about when in comes to autism, it is important to understand that the vaccine hypothesis has been thoroughly considered and exhaustively disproven. Nevertheless, a troubling number of parents make the decision to not have their children vaccinated for a wide range of diseases out of a misguided fear of damaging their child’s cognitive development. Here is what you need to know about the vaccination hypotheses and how it relates to children with autism.The vaccination hypotheses first began to surface during the late 1980s when an increasing number of children were being diagnosed with autism. Most pediatricians and researchers believe that this increase in the number of young people who have been diagnosed with this condition is a result in a wider understanding of what autism is and how to spot the signs of autism in young children. These symptoms first begin to develop when children have reached the age that they are beginning to receive most of their immunization shots. However, parents began to notice that their children were being diagnosed in the same year that they had received their vaccinations and made the mistake of concluding that the vaccination itself caused the neural disorder.Unfortunately, the unquestioning acceptance of the vaccination hypotheses as the cause of children with autism has lead to so many parents choosing not to have their children vaccinated that it may lead to a severe public health crisis. As the percentage of children in the population who have not received basic immunization shots increases, so does the possibility that a large scale measles outbreak could occur in the near future. Measles is a highly contagious disease that will infect between 85% and 95% of the children and adults who are not immunized to it once it is airborne. Sudden exposure of measles to a population that has not been properly vaccinated do to a misunderstanding as unsubstantiated as the connection between vaccinations and children with autism is a recipe for disaster.
What age do most people get autism?
