[quote=Anonymous]Autism is a developmental syndrome marked by a triad of impairments: 1) impairment in the development of social relationships and social skills; 2) impairment in the development of verbal and non-verbal language; and 3) the development of abnormal repetitive and stereotyped behaviors. There are behavior checklists that try to identify commonly seen behaviors in kids with this triad of impairments, but every kid with autism is different so the impairments can manifest in unique ways in every case.
