Clues of Autism
Things You Can Do
Things You Can Do
Be empathetic and welcoming
Smile
Speak slowly and avoid using phrases with multiple meanings such as “What’s up?”
Ask respectful questions if you wish
Do not scorn or assume that unusual behaviors are a discipline problem
Be patient, we are doing the best we can
Safety Concerns
Do not touch unless you ask or need to for safety reasons (running toward traffic or water)
If you observe a child wander or running oddly in an unsafe manner, look into it.
