Children with autism often have a hard time functioning in our ever changing, demanding world. To protect themselves from being overwhelmed, confused and afraid they withdraw into repetitive behaviors, phrases, and activities where nothing changes, or they control the change.

Most don't cray. I have see a few that do. It is because of the lacking social skills. Some them they will cry but with no tears. That's a learned response to try to get their way. They see other children cry and mom and dad will  give in. So they try it.
