Asperger's Syndrome in children

Asperger's Syndrome is a condition on the autism spectrum characterized by difficulties with social interactions, communication, and repetitive behaviors or interests. Children with Asperger's often have strong vocabulary and intelligence but may struggle to interpret social cues, understand others' feelings, or develop typical friendships. They may prefer routines, have intense focus on specific topics, and experience sensory sensitivities. While they generally do not have significant delays in language development or cognitive skills, they benefit from support that helps improve social skills and manage behavioral challenges, enabling better functioning and integration in various environments.
