Bengaluru: Father Demands Action Against Staff After Autistic Man Is Dragged by Collar Off Metro

The 23-year-old was allegedly grabbed by the collar by two metro station security guards and carried out of the station because of the young man’s strange behaviour while returning from his vocational training institute.

Thankfully, the child was able to find his way back to the metro station and board a different train to return home, but the experience left him with minor injuries. His father said in a Facebook post that his son’s impairment is the source of certain peculiar conduct, but he emphasised that this cannot be the only justification for his mistreatment. Most people think Autism is a disorder. Autistic people are atypical. But they do not have a disease/ disorder. Autism is not a disability, but a different ability! So, next time don’t think of it as a disorder or a disease. In other words, Autistic people are a part of neuro-diversity in the human race.

What to Know About Autism Diagnoses That Might Be Seriously Underreported

According to the researchers, between 2000 and 2016, the number of ASD diagnoses in children with intellectual disabilities doubled, whereas the number of diagnoses in children without intellectual disabilities nearly quadrupled during same time.

The obvious indicators of autism first appear in infancy, but statistics reveal that many infants with autism go undiagnosed and unrecorded. Autism is a neurodevelopmental difference. In other words, it simply means a person with Autism has a unique nervous system. Further, Autistic have atypical brains. Do we consider this slight variation a disorder? This is something we need to think about! Is it a disorder or just neuro-diversity? Typically, Autism develops as a child grows. People discover signs of Autism as early as 12months in an infant. Often even earlier in a child.

One of the major difficulties, according to her, is when a young child, up to the age of two, is not maintaining eye contact. One of the first interactions between parents and their children is a gaze. In addition to this early lack of emotional reciprocity, Newman notes that infants with ASD frequently show a laser focus on their interests.
