Very true!!

Virtual Autism is an emerging condition seen in young children exposed excessively to screens (phones, TVs, tablets) with minimal human interaction. It can mimic autism-like symptoms such as delayed speech, poor eye contact, reduced social skills, and delayed developmental milestones

The good news is that it is often reversible with early intervention—reducing screen time, increasing parent-child interaction, and promoting real-life play and communication
We should raise awareness and educate parents about it

Too much screen time and too little real interaction can delay a child’s speech and social growth, this is what we now call Virtual Autism. Let’s spread awareness and bring back real play and connection!
