Wu Jiayu, 18, plays the bass during a practice session with members of her band Star Kids, who like her are all adults with autism spectrum disorder, at a music studio belonging to 38-year-old teacher Chen Shensi, in Beijing, China September 18, 2022. “It’s just difficult for them to communicate normally with other people, let along work in a typical job, but they might be able to make a living by being an artist,” Chen said. “To some degree, I think music might be their language.” REUTERS/Tingshu Wang
