Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are neurodevelopmental variations that affect communication, social interaction, and behavioral regulation. Early diagnosis through developmental screening transforms a child's independence and school readiness.
Early Subtle Signs of ASD in Toddlers
- Inconsistent response to their name by 12 months (hearing is normal)
- Lack of joint attention (not pointing to show you an airplane in the sky)
- Repetitive behaviors like hand-flapping, spinning, or intense lining up of toys
- Sensory sensitivities to loud noises, hair-cutting, or certain clothing textures
