I don't know.
This is what I do know. The Federal government says there is no link to mercury based imunizations and that they have phased out most of them. So if the 80's have gone and the imunizations are now clean then where are these new cases comming from? Is it the new fad label out there?
The schools use Autism as an umbrella term in order to get funds. What the doctors usually say if it isn't true autism is it is a 'developmental disorder' organic in the nerological make up. Have you ever heard of Non-Verbal learning disorder? It's a person who is dominatly left brained. Who cannot see in pictures. I think these people have always been here but our schools are so large now days that these kids who are outside of the norm get put in special classes. Is it any wonder that charter and alternative schools are becomming increasingly popular?
I don't know. I've worked alot on labels with my own kid. I explain alot. I don't think some things are a disability. I think secondary symptoms of anxiety about being different is. I think obsessive compulsive thinking is too and those can be controled by meds and a strong will to learn.
