The correct answer is <span>c. make no eye contact with the parents while he plays.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) refers to a developmental and neurological disorder that is characterized by a range of behavioral, social and speech related symptoms or dysfunctions. Individuals suffering from ASD commonly exhibit behaviors such as difficulties or awkwardness when communicating with others, lack of eye contact, rigid and repetitive behaviors. A child with ASD would likely make no eye contact with his parents while he plays and avoid interacting and involving them in his games. </span>
