Let's think of Autism as a very sophisticated Computer Program. Let's assume that mankind has not yet reached the stage of analyzing this complex program. WE BELIEVE that every INDIVIDUAL who dedicates an idea or time to the "Mysterious Struggle" of Autism is a "Coder" of the KNOWLEDGE and SYSTEM that form the main basis of this program.

Raising a healthy child is what every parent wants most. After the baby is born, there may be no physical discomfort, but mental problems may occur later on. One of these problems is autism. Families usually see the signs of autism in their children within the first 3 years of age, and the most need for advice is during this period. The first problems families encounter are symptoms such as being unresponsive when their children are called, responding late, and having difficulty interacting socially.
If the child has completed the first 6 months and does not smile socially, does not have much voice and facial expressions after the first 9 months, does not make certain sounds or lacks pointing at the age of 1, has not spoken any words even though he has completed the first 16 months, cannot combine words even though he is 2 years old. If regression is observed in the child's attained development, further examination of the child is required. The most basic characteristics of children with autism are that they are passive, they are more on their own and there is no reaction in their behavior. Many autistic children do not make eye contact, have repetitive behaviors such as rocking, clapping, or making a certain sound. Children with autism often start speaking later than they should. Even if they begin to speak, errors may occur in the use of items, word repetitions, and pronouns. If the autism observed in the child is getting worse, this can be observed in the clinical pictures. Although some autistic children have trouble adapting to their social environment, they may show signs of advanced intelligence and have a very successful academic life. When these individuals become adults, they can take care of themselves thanks to their mental skills. In fact, in some cases, the observed intelligence is much above the average, and with this intellectual functioning, they can achieve great success in science or art. On the other hand, some autistic children may have low intellectual functioning, and in such cases, if speech development has not occurred until the age of 6, a diagnosis of mental retardation is made.
