Deafblind children often behave differently to sighted hearing children. Children who are multi-sensory-impaired get very little information about the world around them, and so find it difficult to understand.
This does not mean that they have cognitive learning difficulties, although some children do. Similarly, many deafblind children show difficulties with communication and social relationships, without having autistic spectrum disorders.
