Some remain undiagnosed, even though they show problematic symptoms causing them great stress. When will people on the autistic spectrum get the help they need?<br /><br />If appropriate and timely help is given it can save public expenditure on problems arising from such people not being helped. I’m all in favour of saving public money by giving appropriate support early on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
