Austism speaks to Grammy winner Toni Braxton, especially because her son Diezel,5, was diagnosed with autism at the age of three. In a new PSA featuring her son Diezel, Toni Braxton urges parents to be familiar with the “red flags” for autism: “All of us – parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers and family friends to children – must become familiar with the red flags for autism,” Braxton says. “The earlier children are diagnosed and early intervention begins, the better chance a child has of a brighter future.”
Watch below as Toni makes it known that 1 in 150 children are now diagnosed with the developmental disorder.

wow her son looks exactly like her in the pic with the pink sweater….too cute
That’s a nice PSA. That was too cute with her son. I have a cousin with Autism his mother is 24 he is the 3 child and its like he is lost because his mother really doesnt know what to do.
Glad Toni is using her celebrity for a good cause and glad to see such a strong black woman for a change noticed because of her talents not for her body.
