Since it was discovered in 1943,* Autism remains a mysterious disorder. So far there are still no definite answers as to the causes of this mind-boggling and disruptive condition in our young people. Hopefully, through ongoing researches and dialogues, there will be a light at the end of the autistic tunnel soon.
First, I am most grateful to the facts that I had no hands-on experiences in dealing wuith autistic children. I, however, am prepared to share with others some trivial information that may relate this disorder to a very smart but temperament young person whom we all know.
It came to me by accident. Just a few weeks ago what I read to kill time while waiting for a friend, might, with due respect, connect one of the world smartest persons to Autism.
But being ignorant in science related subjects, I had just learned that the Nobel laureate, Albert Einstein (1879 - l955)*, did not speak a word until he was three. The renown American scientist, taught himself Calculus at age of 12, was also known to be a temperament child. And it must he a great relief to his dear parents, besides his known achievement and contribution to the science world, the young Einstein grew up to live a normal life just like any other young boys did in his times. - Ayee
