In the past few days, this newspaper has continuously reported that a child with autism was placed in Beining Park in this city by his parents and is still stranded in the Tianjin rescue station. These days, citizens are particularly concerned about the fate of this child and learned from the rescue station that the child’s home search is still in progress. The story of this child has caused many citizens to pay attention to autism. Everyone is very worried: Are children with autism really unable to integrate into a normal life? In this regard, the reporter learned from professional research institutions: At present, the incidence of autism in children has reached 1.5%, and children who are ill have formed a special group. They must undergo scientific professional training and work in the family. With the efforts of educational institutions, they can basically adapt to normal life.

Recently, the reporter came to the 10th Kindergarten in Hedong District, which is one of the pilot bases for "integrative" education for children with autism. Xixi (pseudonym) in this kindergarten is a child with autism. He has his own "proprietary" teacher and a special activity room for him. Xixi can not only study and play games with children in the big classroom. You can also go to this own little world to complete his special training. Before entering the kindergarten, 4-year-old Xixi had never spoken. His eyes were always empty, and all people and things seemed to have nothing to do with him. However, after contacting her peers in the kindergarten, Xixi can already speak simple language under the guidance of the teacher. The teacher said: "Just a few days ago, he also said'Mom, I love you'."

Xixi is very interested in various building blocks. He can quickly recognize shapes and colors, classify and assemble blocks. The teacher arranged for him to play with building blocks with other children. In the process of cooperation, there are sometimes competitions for a building block. Xixi still doesn't say like other children: "This is mine." He only shouts, but the teachers think: this is also a kind of communication, with the company and mutual influence of children of the same age, which is important for Xixi's language development. And emotional intelligence is good.

Xixi's family financial situation is not good, and it is still a single-parent family. According to this situation, the kindergarten has reduced some fees. Director Zhou Hua said: "We embrace children like Xixi and believe that love can open the window of the soul. We also hope that all parents of children with autism will not give up."

The Tianjin Yitong Psychological and Behavioral Research Center, which was the first to propose an immersive educational environment for children with autism in this city, is constantly developing ordinary kindergartens as a training base in this city. Center Director Zhang Yuanping said: “After basic training in the center for about three months, children with autism can establish a close relationship with their own instructors, and then they can be sent to kindergartens and enrolled in regular classes. Such integration is important for them. Living ability and language ability have great benefits. For children with autism, being able to communicate with others is very important, and it is also the basis for their future study and life. After several years of immersive attempts, the effect is relatively good This year, six children with autism who have lived in ordinary kindergartens have successfully entered ordinary elementary schools. For children who are ill, hope is ahead."
