“The word “autism” still conveys a fixed and dreadful meaning to most

people—they

visualize

a

child

mute,

rocking,

screaming,

inaccessible, cut off from human contact. And we almost always speak of autistic children, never of autistic adults, as if such children never grew up, or were somehow mysteriously spirited off the planet, out of society. (Grandin, 2006)” Te m p l e Gr a n d i n was diagnosed with autism as a child and went on to pursue work in psychology and animal science.

From that point, people would understand what is Autism. Autism is not a problem! The problem is our
