Eating is a natural and essential human activity that is necessary to sustain life and ensure growth. But it can be a recurrent challenge for children with autism and a cause of stress for parents. Feeding difficulties have been observed and studied in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) extensively since the earliest understanding of the disorder, even though the presence of feeding difficulties is not used in diagnosing autism. This presentation describes common feeding difficulties associated with the presence of autism spectrum disorder and information about possible interventions for this problem.
The NIDAS webinar creates awareness among people especially parents and caregivers of the individuals with disability, and thus provides a platform to share their concerns and clear doubts. For more than two years, NIDAS has been successful in creating awareness regarding various aspects of disability and associated issues.
