More info PLEASE!
"Autism Spectrum Disorder" covers quite a wide spectrum.
I just came from an autism workshop & there were a few parents there whose kid, if you were to offer a choice of an apple or banana by showing a picture of an apple & banana, wouldn't get it. You'd have to present the actual fruit.
The other extreme (usually Asperger's) can be computer programers & engineers. Many people suspect Bill Gates is autistic (Aspergers.)
My neice is mostly non-verbal, can't read but understands pictures very well. She usually doesn't do a lot of head banging, either.
Add more details or email me & I'll be happy to answer if I can.

My daughter worked with autistic kids in a group home.
She found that some of the kids responded well to sign language.
Love and patience is important.
A room that is very padded for safety gives your child a place to be and not get injured. Some kids love to be in a swing.
Without any more knowledge it is hard to tell you more.
