  So this is how to spot Aspergers in children.
• 0:02
  Guys, welcome back to the Asbury world.

  OK guys, let's get started. I wanted to this video because
• 0:25
  like a lot of people I know, I do a lot of videos for adults
• 0:27
  and meals in the special. But it's still possible that
• 0:29
  people are still searching for my content to find out
• 0:33
  information on kids. So I've written down some ways
• 0:35
  you can identify autism in children for Aspergers, for
• 0:38
  people who have the old nomenclature, which is not just
• 0:40
  autism special disorder, and it's good to know that.
• 0:42
  So the first thing I talk about is difficulty with social
• 0:44
  communication. Now, this could be difficulty in
• 0:47
  initiating and maintaining conversation, understanding the
• 0:50
  flow of conversation, understanding nonverbal cues,
• 0:52
  hand gestures, facial expressions you know, distance
• 0:56
  to the stand next to somebody, maintaining eye contact, even
• 0:59
  making eye contact. These are all traits that will
• 1:02
  display themselves in children who have Asperger's syndrome.
• 1:05
  The next one is restricted impetitive behaviors or
• 1:08
  interests such as, you know, sticking to strict routines,
• 1:11
  fixating on one type of food to eat all the time, one type of TV
• 1:14
  show to watch all the time, one type of clothing to wear all the
• 1:16
  time. These are all very telltale
• 1:18
  signs. This person has Asperger
• 1:20
  Syndrome and the last I'll talk about here is sensory
• 1:23
  sensitivities, which is an under over sensitivity to things like
• 1:26
  sound, touch, smell, textures. It could even be temperature.
• 1:30
  It could be being in the room with certain people who have
• 1:32
  certain aftershaves on. This is very difficult for
• 1:34
  people on the Austin spectrum, especially those dangers.
• 1:36
  Asperger Syndrome. Now, not all of these are going
• 1:38
  to be present, but some of them are.
• 1:40
  Mainly, all of them will be present in people with
• 1:43
  Asperger's syndrome. Now, it's not a diagnosis.
• 1:45
  I'm not diagnosing anybody. I'm just giving the information
• 1:47
  so people can have this information to go forward.
• 1:49

• 1:52
