Is Aggressive Behavior A Symptom Of Autism In A 3 Years Old Child?

HI Doctor Samuel, My daughters foster son displays aggressive behaviour and I wonder if he could be autistic.He screams at my daughter in the mornings to wake up and if she doesn t respond quickly he urinates on the floor.He throws things at her 12 year old daughter and he gets upset if things are not done in the same order.He is three years old and both his biological parents have mental problems. Thankyou Valerie Hille
