A questionnaire was developed consisting of (28) paragraphs divided into four areas, the study sample consisted of (197) families with autistic children. The results of the study showed that the impact level of the psychological and economic constraints were very high, medium degree of social constraints and autistic child rehabilitation is largely performed by families. The results showed a difference in the level of psychological constraints according to the variables (family income as a whole, place of residence and type of family housing), while there is no difference according to the variables (father's educational level, mother's educational level and social status), and that there is a difference in the level of social constraints depending on the variables (educational level of the mother and the social situation) while there is no difference depending on the variables (father’s educational level, family income and place of residence, there is a difference in economic constraints level according to the variables (father's educational level, mothers’ educational level, family income, social status and type of residence).
