Key Takeaways:

We are currently working on the key takeaways for this article. They will be available soon.

Every child develops differently and at a different pace. However, the development of some children may present red flags indicative of developmental delay of varying nature. In most cases, early recognition of these developmental red flags can pave the way to early intervention. Intervening early can go a long way in improving learning and behavioural challenges this child may face later in life. Following infographic serves to help you spot early signs of autism in children. A parent must be perceptive of these signs, so a child between the ages of 5 and 11 who is at high risk for Autism may get help as early as possible.

If you have spotted early signs of Autism you can take a few online tests too. However, never self-diagnose Autism and immediately go to the doctor with your observations and test results. Refer to our Autism factsheet for a quick snapshot of the condition and its therapy management strategies.
