There is such a group of children,
They live in their own world,
To be precise,
They are trapped in their own world.
Their world,
Not quite like ours:
"My world is full of numbers"
"Minecraft is full of mischievous music elves"
"My world is full of colorful lines"
......
They are like stars in the sky,
Twinkling alone in the distant and pitch-black night sky.
They are autistic people,
Also known as "Children of the Stars".
Today(April 2)
It's World Autism Awareness Day,
Maybe you've never had contact with an autistic person,
But it's a huge group.
Flow tone data shows that
In China, about 3 million children already suffer from autism.
Some friends are more familiar with the term "autism",
"Autism" and "autism" refer to the same disease,
Change the name "autism" to one
It is to respect the academic habits of the mainland,
Also to prevent misunderstandings —
the term "autism",
As the name suggests, it has the meaning of self-closure,
Some people therefore misunderstand that "autism" is
Because the child himself locked up the heart
Leads to isolation from the outside world,
It is a mental illness that requires psychotherapy.
I don't know,
This condition is a neurodevelopmental disorder,
Not associated with acquired parenting and psychological disorders.
The Propaganda and Cultural Department of the China Disabled Persons' Federation recently issued it
Notice on The Titles of Disabled Persons in Publicity and Reporting and the Work of Persons with Disabilities,
Among them, it is recommended to call "autism" and not "autism".
Is autism a "genius disease"?
Referring to autism,
You might think of the one that was circulating online
List of "23 Autistic Geniuses worldwide",
Beethoven, Mozart, Hans Christian Andersen...
all on the list.
We can't examine these masters one by one
whether you have autism,
But in people with autism,
There are some people
Have extraordinary talents in certain fields,
Take, for example, children with Asperger's syndrome.
Three-year-old Xiao Zuo suffers from autism,
I don't know the score, but I can play the piano,
Can watch the video a few times and pop up a song as it is,
You can even blindfold yourself by "blindly playing" simple tunes.
Xiao Zuo is a piano genius with unlimited potential in our eyes,
But only Xiao Zuo's mother knows,
How much time do you have to spend each day
Accompany Xiao Zuo for intervention treatment,
Even eating lollipops is such a simple thing
To be taught again and again...
And, the truth is,
Only 5%-10% of people with autism
There is a special talent.
The plight of families
Children with autism are more often
May be silent, eyes fluttering,
May not be able to eat or dress alone,
May be unusually stubborn and unable to listen to advice,
You may even inadvertently scream and hit people...
Autism due to unknown etiology,
Treatment of the lack of specific drugs,
And it is difficult to cure for life.
Children not only need the long-term companionship of their caregivers,
It also requires a long period of rehabilitation
to improve the ability to live independently and adapt to society.
Behind almost every autistic child,
All are full of the pain of a family:
Rehabilitation of children takes a long time and costs a lot;
Life and study need uninterrupted escort,
It is difficult for parents to go out to work with peace of mind.
Not to mention,
"Parents love their children, and they have far-reaching plans for them",
In addition to the immediate economic and psychological double pressure,
Parents are most worried about:
"When I'm old, what should I do when my children are alone?"
"The greatest hope of the mother of a child with autism,
It's one day more to live than your own children. ”
These families undoubtedly need the help of society.
The power of society
this year
The theme of World Autism Awareness Day is this
"Spotlight on Autism Services:
building a social security mechanism,
Promote the high-quality development of service institutions".
It is necessary to integrate education from medical security, preschool rehabilitation, and school age.
Vocational education, employment support,
Community life placement and other aspects,
Support people with autism and their families.
The autistic community is being seen by more people,
There are also more and more places
Light up the lights for them to move forward.
In Tianhe District, Guangzhou,
Among children with disabilities between the ages of 3 and 6 attending classes,
The highest number of children with confirmed or suspected autism.
As a result, the district conducted a campaign for kindergarten teachers
Training in behavioral performance and support strategies in children with autism,
There are also key teachers of integrated education in the district
Relevant thematic training was conducted.
In August last year, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, took the lead in introducing it
"On several measures for the rehabilitation and support of children with autism."
(Trial),
There will be subsidy standards for rehabilitation services for children with autism
Raised to 25,000 yuan per person per year,
There are 42 designated private autism rehabilitation institutions in the city
You can get a rental subsidy of 4.97 million yuan per year,
moreover
Fuzhou City plans to open a new public autism children's school,
It covers preschool integrated education, compulsory education, and vocational education.
Please build a night sky for the "stars"
And what each of us can do for autistic people,
It's about treating them right.
How do we relate to it
From the "stars" they get along with?
Listen to their voices.
If some children are destined to become "stars",
Let us be the night sky that embraces them,
Guard them with kindness,
Let the "lonely" "stars" not be lonely.
