15-year-old Amaan Ganatra achieves two victories at the Kasarani Super Special Stage racetrack. Meanwhile, a parent expresses concern about their three-year-old boy’s delayed speech and behavioral patterns, including fixation on objects and self-harming tendencies when frustrated. The parent wonders if their child could be autistic and seeks advice on how to support speech development. They are advised to have the child assessed by a multidisciplinary team including a paediatrician, developmental specialist, psychologist, and teacher, to better understand the child’s needs and determine appropriate interventions. Additionally, they can seek assessment at the Kenya Institute of Special Education for further evaluation and support.
