A neurodevelopmental disorder on the Pervasive Developmental Disorder group characterized by challenges in social life, motor skills, etc. Autism may refer to Kanner autism or classic autism, but mostly the Autism spectrum. Autism is mostly inherited in genetics. Comorbid conditions include ADHD, intellectual disability, fetal alcohol spectrum disorder, Rett syndrome, selective mutism, schizophrenia, etc. Boys are mostly 10 times to get the autism diagnosis, but girls are less frequently to get the autism diagnosis, leading to the false belief that autism is only applied to boys, as this is incorrect, as possibly girls can get a autism diagnosis by a professional doctor. The Internet portrays autism as a disease resulting in permeant retardation, when in reality is a neurodevelopmental disorder including social challenges, motor skills, etc.
