Why is Autism located in the brain?
Autism is not found in one part of the brain. Autism spectrum disorder is a condition that affects how the brain grows and works. This means that the brain of someone with autism spectrum disorder develops differently and works differently than people's brains. Scientists have found that the brains of people with autism spectrum disorder are connected differently. They have found differences in the networks of the brain that help us talk to people, interact with people, process what we see and hear, learn things, and behave. The thing is, these differences are not the same for every person with autism spectrum disorder. So there is no one part of the brain that we can say is the "autism area." It is really important for parents and families to know that autism spectrum disorder is not caused by anything they did. Autism spectrum disorder is not caused by parenting or by not showing enough love. Scientists think that many things, including genes and how the brain develops contribute to autism. Also, autism is not a disaese. Many people with autism have developed remarkable skills. Temple Grandin is one such example. She became a respected animal science professor, author and an advocate for people with autism. In India, we have Sonalika Pradhan who is an artist and her art work is loved for their distinctive style.
