When your autistic can you speak?

Answer 1

yes - eventually - yes. it takes a lot of work and prayer and therapists. my son has 5 different therapists for different symptoms and it is all working and he is speaking "normal." it is very rewarding to be really involved in getting your child help. it takes a lot of effort and patience and understanding and learning how to be a parent therapist because what they know and teach us parents does really work well!!!! Praise Jesus Christ for helping our autistic children and adults!!!!! Thank You Jesus for the therapists and doctors and medicines - they do help. The Lord uses these wonderful people to be a huge blessing to my boy and us!

Answer 2

They might, they might not.

Many non-verbal autistic children do go on to speak - for example I was non-verbal up until the age of 7 years old and now as an adult I speak as much (if not more) than anyone else - where as many autistic children will never speak. Some autistic children will also have co-morbid conditions that prevent them from speaking too, which are often permanent.

Answer 3

Yes, Autistic children can speak normally.

Some of us are non-verbal and may remain non-verbal throughout our lives, we will communicate with other methods such as written language, sign language, or body language. Some of us have no problems with speech what-so-ever so will speak normally like our peers. Some of us will have delays in our speech, either being non-verbal before talking some time after neurotypical peers and sometimes talking when our neurotypical peers do but struggling with pronunciation.

Speech therapy and other behavioral therapies can help - although it should be noted that some therapies used on Autistic children are cruel and try to force Autistic children to act like neurotypical children which long-term can cause serious harm and regression. It should also be noted that progress is due to the individuals effort as much as anyone elses, and make-believe beings such as Jesus have nothing to do with a childs development.

Answer 4

Yes, if you're Autistic then you can speak.

Some Autistic people are non-verbal and there are various reasons for this, sometimes related to other conditions rather than just Autism. Some Autistic people may have been non-verbal as children but become verbal as they grew-up, and some Autistic people may be semi-verbal so may not be able to speak when they are under stress or in certain situations. I am Autistic and was non-verbal until I was 7 years old, into adulthood there are still times when I am unable to speak - I was unable to make myself speak, but once I did start talking I spoke in full sentences and had only mild speech problems.

Answer 5

Whether an Autistic boy speaks or not depends completely on the child in question. A lot of Autistic people are non-verbal and continue to be non-verbal due to their autism alone for the rest of their lives or they may suddenly start speaking one day. Some Autistic people have other conditions along with autism which prevents them speaking, but with therapy or treatment they may speak at some point.

Answer 6

Yes, but there are different degrees in autism.

Answer 7

Yes they can

Answer 8

Yes, many can speak.
