Parents need to know what the developmental stages are in order to make sure that their child is progressing. While it is important not to push children, one should make sure that are moving along at a good pace. Often a parent can see this in comparison to other children. Teachers will also be able to pick up something and parents should follow this up.

It can start as early as when you have a small baby and notice that there something that is quite not right with your little one. They baby may seem disconnected. Most babies will have a sparkle in their eye. They will be affectionate. However, should you feel that the child has no eye contact, or that the toddler is not speaking, it may be a sign of autism.

You need someone experienced to diagnose the problem because a lot of these disorders are closely linked and you can't diagnose them on your own.

They may think it is a once off, or they could think that their child is going through a bad experience and they will snap out of it. However, managing this in the right way is so important because it will be more difficult to cope with later on in life.
