We are bombarded by acronyms these days. ASD is not (but should be) one of the more
well-known. It stands for Autism
Spectrum Disorder. Let’s just take one
segment of the U.S. population…8 year olds.
About how many of them would you expect to have ASD? Nearly one in three! Are you surprised?
Sadly, unlike many other childhood diseases this one is on
the INCREASE. This is all about how kids
relate to others in a variety of social situations. If not properly addressed, a young person
could be headed for a life of deep depression as well as isolation. That might not only affect them, but everyone
with whom they interact.
This is something that needs to be addressed as soon as
possible. Who better to do it than ASD
specialist Dr. Steven Sussman? He will
help your child integrate into a group setting and work on that ASD to help
them become more sociable. Very little
could be more important in this age of so much non-verbal communication. Call Dr. Sussman for an appointment at his
New Jersey or Staten Island office today.
That number is (908) 217-8106.
