Child developmental therapy cannot cure autism in children diagnosed with the disorder, but a new study has found that video intervention could help. Researchers discovered that parents who watched video lessons that showed them how develop their baby’s attention span, communication abilities, language development and social engagement reduced the signs of autism in high-risk children, when compared to parents who didn’t watch the videos. The videos explained how to properly engage with your high-risk child in order to maximize development often hindered by autism. Though the findings still need to be replicated before video intervention is prescribed, the discovery is still promising.
