Answer 3

You need to put a bit more detail in to your question. As people who suffer from an autistic spectrum disorder are all very different, so they will all have varying difficulties. Because the spectrum is so large the condition can vary greatly between those who have no communication skills to those who appear to communicate very well. Some will be recognised straight away as having a disability whilst those who are higher functioning are able to cover up their disabilities to a degree. None the less all those who have an ASD tend to suffer with social situations, communication and social imagination.
