i recently learned autism is actually a spectrum disorder, with many characteristics like social skills
Really?  did not know that. I knew that there is usually a presence of repetitive behavior. 
The CDC estimates autism's prevalence as 1 in 59 children in the United States, 1 in 37 boys and 1 in 151 girls.
That is high! Do you agree with proposed theories that vaccines can cause it? 
i do not believe that one bit, there have been scientific papers dedicated to debunking it, but what hs been proven is parents older than 35 have a higher chance of having kids with autism
DO you believe that both educational interventions and medical management are needed to help people with autism?
