It is a body or language behavior which is not allowed by society.This is a case study of an American teenager girl of autism, who has aggressive behaviors. The goal of the case study is to analyse the reason of her aggressive behaviors and then find some resolutions to control them.The methods of this research are case study, literature collection, and observation. It is found that the reason of her aggressive behavior is caused by physical factors, psychological factors, direct stimulates, family and society factors.
