Children's Doctors Group Calls for Early Medical and Educational Intervention for Autism Spectrum Disorders (2/2)

The A.A.P. says autistic children do better with more direct attention from and interaction with their teachers.

The group also calls for interaction between autistic children and non-autistic children of the same age when possible. However, the A.A.P. guidelines note that children with more severe cases of autism spectrum disorder may have serious behavior problems. These could make interactions with other children difficult or even harmful.

The experts advise parents to receive training for dealing with autism. But the A.A.P. warns parents and doctors against several kinds of treatment programs. These include those that claim a high level of success or a cure for the disorder. The guidelines suggest using treatments that are based on results of controlled studies supported by established scientific organizations.

The A.A.P. says autistic children should have the same general health care as other children, including immunizations against disease. It says some autistic children have behavior, social or medical problems that may require treatment with drugs.

美国儿科学会声称自闭症儿童在与老师更多地互动，就能表现得更好。

协会同时呼吁如果可能的话，增加同龄的自闭症儿童和正常儿童之间的互动。尽管如此，美国儿科学会的指南中提到大多数患严重自闭症的儿童可能存在很多的行为问题。这些孩子与其他儿童之间的互动很困难甚至有伤害。

专家建议父母接受相应的训练来应付自闭症。但是美国儿科学会警告父母和医生不要接受某些治疗方案，包括那些宣传成功率很高或者能够治愈行为紊乱的方案。指南建议使用那些基于对照性研究获得的研究结果，并有确定的科学组织支持的治疗方法。
