A person who is known to have autism. Characterized by repetative movements such as hand flapping, rocking, or banging of the head. Some autistic people have speech delays, trouble concentrating and difficulties with the emotional ques of other people. Some autistics have above average intelligence with minimal issues as stated above.
To be autistic is a challenge for not just the person with autism but the entire family envolved. It is highly misunderstood and has no cure.

I encourage others to please read up on autism and make yourself aware of the signs. Early intervention will have the biggest impact on an autistics life.
