Autism


I saw a commercial on TV the other day saying 1 in 166 children were diagnosed as autistic. I was going to write that I thought someone was expanding the definition of autism but didn't see it again and didn't know who said it.

I just ran into this article saying autism now effects 1 in 150 children! Is autism the new ADHD? I don't know but I have a hard time believing these numbers. I think someone is expanding the definition of autism.
