  upload OK guys let's get started.
• 0:24
  I wanted to see this video because like a lot of people I
• 0:26
  know, I do a lot of videos for adults and the autism special.
• 0:28
  But it's still possible that people people are still
• 0:30
  searching for my content to find out information on kids.
• 0:34
  So I've written down some ways you can identify autism in
• 0:36
  children for Aspergers for people who have the old
• 0:39
  nomenclature, which is now just autism special disorder.
• 0:41
  And it's good to know that. So the first thing I'll talk
• 0:43
  about is difficulty with social communication.
• 0:45
  Now this could be difficulty in initiating and maintaining
• 0:48
  conversation, understanding the flow of conversation,
• 0:51
  understanding nonverbal cues, hand gestures, facial
• 0:54
  expressions, you know, distance to stand next to somebody,
• 0:57
  maintaining eye contact, even making eye contact.
• 1:00
  These are all traits that will display themselves in children
• 1:04
  who have aspergic syndrome. The next one is restricted and
• 1:06
  repetitive behaviours or interests such as, you know,
• 1:09
  sticking to strict routines, fixating or one type of food to
• 1:12
  eat all the time, one type of TV show to watch all the time, one
• 1:15
  type of clothing to wear all the time.
• 1:17
  These are all very telltale signs as a person has aspergic
• 1:20
  syndrome. And the last one I'll talk about
• 1:22
  here is sensitivities, which is an under or over sensitivity to
• 1:26
  things like sound, touch, smell, textures.
• 1:29
  It could even be temperature. It could be being in the room
• 1:31
  with certain people who have certain aftershaves.
• 1:33
  This is very difficult for people on the autism spectrum,
• 1:35
  especially those diagnose Asburger syndrome.
• 1:37
  Now, not all of these are going to be present, but some of them
• 1:40
  are. Mainly all of them will be
• 1:42
  present than people with Asburger syndrome.
• 1:43
  Now. It's not a diagnosis.
• 1:45
  I'm not diagnosing anybody. I'm just getting the information
• 1:47
  so people can have this information to go forward.
• 1:49
