- Abstract
This paper aims to investigate the relationship between autistic children’s health conditions and their family’s socio-economic status (SES), with great impacts on one another. The findings revealed that SES affects autistic children’s health in the aspect of economic support, family education, and parenting style. On the other hand, autistic children’s health would have an impact on SES in the aspect of exacerbating financial burden, marital tensions, and stigma on parents. After displaying the interactions between SES and autistic children’s health, the researchers propose future interventions for autistic children to mitigate their current situation, including raising governmental subsidies to families with autistic children and creating more formal institutions to offer professional treatments to autistic children.
