The purpose of this study is to describe the life of an autistic person. This study aims to help the
autistic people by aiding them to be understood by the people around the them.
The qualitative method of research was used in this study employing in-depth interview
with the respondents. The respondents were chosen based on recommendation and availability.
Findings:
The findings of the study show the results of the data gathered by the researchers from
This study finds that education is important for the social needs of an individual.
According to Disabil (2017), education, socialization, and independent living are essential for the
people who have autism. Having quality education is necessary for them, to associate around
people. Despite of having disabilities they need enough guidance and learning. This study
identifies and understands the needs of autistic person. It is related to the present study because it
clarifies the needs of autistic person despite of having these challenges. Rhoebe can be more
associated with people through the people she meets at school. She meets classmates, teachers
This research finds that Autistic individuals need different paraphernalia in coping with
their fears and stressors. In case of Rhoebe, she need things like headphones to distract her from
the noise of fireworks which scares her. A study of Gomez (2013), is about the quality of life of
parents of children with special needs. Moreover, the results of the study can cause development
for parents to improve their ways in handling their child with ASD. This study is related to the
present study because it includes the support management system of the parent of Children with
Special Needs (CWSN), and the community through the policy makers who can build laws in
therapy. This supports the needs of an autistic individual when it comes to proper treatment. This
study found out that regular schooling will not help autistic person to move out of their own
world that’s why proper intervention should be implemented and autistic individual should
undergo different types of therapies as according to the doctor who diagnosed the child. In
therapies, the psychological, and behavioral needs of an autistic child can be addressed as said by
Mr. Bong Sy. According to Sy (2019), therapies develops the behavior of an autistic child
through different approach like establishing eye contact and sitting tolerance. Then, the
(2019). If a child has symptoms of ASD, check-up is needed. Then, proper therapy will be given
to the autistic child. The development of the therapy should be accompanied by support of the
parents. According to the observation of Bart (2019), there are sudden developments with his
autistic child, but it fades over time. This can be challenging to parents because according to a
study of Bonis (2016), parents of children with ASD score higher on levels of stress than other
groups of parents. The daily challenges of caring for the child are endless and effect all aspects
of the child's care as well as the parent's mental health and ability to manage the needs of the
Support management system also requires the participation of the community. Hill
(2017), explains that people with ASD can possibly perform better in the society where they can
discover their strengths and talents. People who surrounds Rhoebe may be a great factor in
discovering her skills. The researchers have discovered the ability of Rhoebe, she is good in
solving puzzles. To support her ability, Mrs. Cuarta - Rhoebe's teacher, provides puzzles to
develop her skill. Also, in the case of Rhoebe Fermin, the researchers found out that she is good
at gadgets and likes to play with it all the time. But gadgets must be limited to the autistic person
because it triggers the child to have their own world. According to the study of Sansosti, J, et. al
(2014), the autistic people who uses computers or gadgets helps to identify their skills. Behind
this, the guidance of parents is very important for the child to not get too attached with the device
even though it is stated that they can understand the unpredictable world with the help of
computers. Next thing, ASD people divert their interest in necessary information that leads as
their motivation which is what the computer contains and show in general. On the other hand,
this benefit does not assure the development of social skills of autistic person. The statement
given by behavioral therapists suggested talking with this autistic people rather than letting them
use gadgets more often. It is also their rights to play because those things are reinforcing to them
and also, they can know things more but it should be only allowed on limited time.
Conclusion:
Rhoebe was born with a normal appearance until she reached the age of 2 and her
behavior is not normal compared to other child. Having autism was the finding of the Doctor to
the case of Rhoebe. Autism has no cure, but early intervention can lead to better results. To
support Rhoebe, her parents did some research about her case on what is the best way to do with
an autistic person. They care a lot, understand what her needs and they love their child
wholeheartedly even she has an autism. They try to enroll her in school but some school denied
her because of her case. But her parents are very persistent in enrolling her in school because for
them Rhoebe and his case is very special and they trust Rhoebe’s ability to do work not only in
their house but also in school. Many children with ASD achieve basic academic skills
commensurate with or higher than their cognitive ability. Rhoebe’s ability in making the puzzle
with 100 pieces is very surprising and amazing. It is her skill that no other child like her age can
arrange the puzzle. Some people who have autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have difficulty in
expressing their thoughts in a way that can be easily understood. So, her parents and teacher
really understand the expression she wants to express just like when she’s happy and sad. But in
some point, she's not good in having a conversation because of her behavior. To an autistic child,
support is vital for the development. Part of this support will come from the team of health care
professionals treating your child and educating you as the parent of a child with autism spectrum
disorder. Although autism spectrum disorder can't be cured, most children can live a happy,
productive life by taking part in therapy. The parents of the child with ASD need to provide a
proper treatment to their child at early age especially therapy. In her case, lack of money is the
problem of her parents. She can’t go in therapy because the budget is not enough to have a
session every day that costs 600 pesos per session. Also, support of community is also important.
People should accept them and stop discriminating them and treat them as a normal person
because despite of having disorder they need enough guidance and learning.
Recommendations
the respondents' availability. If ever there are changes, the researchers can adjust with the
schedule of interview. Researchers would not like to bother them in some important events. The
researchers recommend the parents to send their child on a doctor once they observe a different
behavior shown by their kids. It is also recommended to send them on therapists once diagnosed
with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Parents should always keep an eye to their kids while in the
process of therapy. Communication is very important that is why parents should talk with their
child to enhance their social skills. Limit their time in using gadgets so that they won't be too
attached with the device. The parents play an important role with the autistic that is why parents
have to guide their child and give them the support needed. Researchers also recommend the
teachers to discuss autism to students in order to inform them about the disorder. Students are
expected to understand the topic so if ever they'll encounter an autistic person, they can consider
the situation without giving judgment or misconception. For the future researchers, the study
about autism requires applying deeper understanding. It is easier to accomplish the research
paper if the researchers have knowledge about the said topic. Follow good manners in
communicating with new respondents for better results. Make sure to value your time so the
