A nice long read which will help explain why Autism occurs and what most definitely does NOT cause it. (Hint: its always genetics) And while arguing with people who think it is caused by fluoride, c-sections, milk, flame retardant couch protectors, gluten, iPads, vaccinations and refrigerator mothers is like nailing jelly to a wall; Kevin gives some great advice on how to counter such theories when they are spouted at you. (without hitting them upside the head) My favourite quote in the article is the research into identical, same cell twins (when the cell splits after fertilisation and becomes two people with all the same DNA.) When autism occurs in one identical twin, it occurs in the other 80% of the time. With fraternal twins (where there were 2 separate eggs being fertilised by two separate sperms sharing a womb) it only happens 20% of the time. So those 2 little babies grow up with all the same environmental factors such as fluoride and vaccinations and yet only one of them catches The Autism 80% of the time. Why? Because genetics.
