Helping the autistic children
Thursday, 3 April 2014
World Autism Awareness Day is observed every year on April 02. The importance of the day is immense, especially in countries like ours where most of the people have no clue about autism. Many think it as a curse and blame parents for it. Autisms is characterised by difficulty in communicating and forming relationships with others. Autism is misunderstood even by the educated people. People who suffer from autism are compelled to lead confined life full of negligence. The sneers of others alienate the victims more and increase their isolation. The schools for autistic children should get government help so that the parents can afford to send their children to special schools.
