Self-Awareness & Autism
The quoted report is a sample of the tough challenge we face each day with autistic children.
QUOTE People with autism 'have problem with self-awareness'
Scientists have produced evidence that self-awareness is a big problem for people with autism.
"We know many people with autism do want to interact with others and make friends but have difficulty recognising or understanding other people's thoughts and feelings. This research has shown that people with autism may also have difficulty understanding their own thoughts and feelings and the brain mechanisms underlying this." Ref. Source 4
