Moreover, we collected personal and family data of the children assessmented through the clinic chart and the mental examination. The children were nine male and one female diagnosid with autism, and who were refered by the parents with disruptive behavior. The results were processed qualitatively, revealing some trends compatible with scientific literatura about autism. The children present alterations over their sensory development, language development delay and alterations in communications and social interactions. Finaly, the parenting style so called autoritative kind are associated with balance family fucntionality, while the levels of parental stress were low, and were related with a centered problema coping style.
