ABC News: Film Documents Families Coping With Autism: "Aug. 8, 2006 — Autism can isolate a child from loved ones and friends.
It takes a toll on not just the child who suffers from it, but also his or her family.
Although the condition is extremely prevalent — according to Autismspeaks.org, one in 166 children is diagnosed with autism and more children will be diagnosed with autism this year than with AIDS, diabetes and cancer combined — many people do not understand what it is.
'Autism Every Day' is a new documentary about the everyday life of families with an autistic child, focusing on Alison Singer, whose daughter Jodie suffers from autism."
