Frequently Asked Questions
Does Autism only affect boys?
The disorder is statistically more common in males than in females. But this does not mean that girls cannot be autistic. It has also been seen that girls learn to hide the symptoms of autism much better than boys do, so many of them are diagnosed later in life than boys.
