Assuming that they were helped as well as studied assumes too much.

My son was born in the 1960s. By age two, (before, really) his behavior around other children was different from any of the other kids I knew. Before the Internet, I found, with the help of the reference librarian in the downtown library of a big city, two books that explained it: they called it autism.

@joanneaugust1489 Autism wasn’t well known or talked about in the 60s. It was amazing that I found anything about it in 1969, and both references were in scholarly books few people would have read.
