Parents and even doctors sometimes miss the red flags for autism, but a new online video “glossary” makes them startlingly clear.
The new Web site offers dozens of video clips of autistic kids contrasted with unaffected children’s behavior.
The site was due to be available today on the Autism Speaks web site at http://www.autismspeaks.org and is sponsored by two nonprofit advocacy groups: Autism Speaks and First Signs. They hope the site will promote early diagnosis and treatment, which can help young children with autism lead more normal lives.
