❇Do all children with behavioural issues (such as aggression and self-injury) have Autism⁉️
➡️The simple answer is No.

▪️However, studies have shown that behavioural issues are present at high rates in individuals with Autism.

▪️For example, a 2011 study involving nearly 1400 individuals with Autism found that more than 50% of the individuals in the study engaged in aggression towards their caregivers.

⁉️So the question then becomes: why are individuals with Autism more likely to experience behavioural issues? Well if we look at the core features of Autism (which include deficits in social and communication skills), we can see that a child who has difficulty communicating his or her needs may be more likely to get those needs met using other behaviours (including aggression).

🧘‍♂️By understanding and addressing the needs of an individual with Autism, we can reduce the likelihood of behavioural issues and improve the person's quality of life.
