screen time & autism

Regretfully, I introduced screen time to my little one at a very early age, hoping to buy some free time for myself amidst the chaos and lack of support. 😞 Now, my precious child is displaying autism-like symptoms (refuse talking, eye contact, scream when not getting screen time when he wants it... refuse eating if not watching tv/ video), and I can't help but blame myself. Has anyone experience similar thing?

I work with students with autism and autism cannot be caused by excessive screen time. It’s something that people are born with, nothing to do with how they were taken care of after birth. Best to seek medical advice for your child’s issue. They’ll be best to provide advice on whether it’s autism or just anti-social behavior because of the lack of social interaction from young.
