There are many factors involved, the spectrum is wide, it IS a lifelong condition. I am not going to continue this conversation as it's utterly off topic.Autism on its own has such a wide spectrum they are yet to fully understand the many reasons and links to how it evolved and hows its "caused", and i use the quotes over the cause because i dont believe its a life long detrimental conditon, many many young people have gone on to have full and long living worthy lives on both sides of its spectrum. Thats just my input. I follow a few Autism mummys and for them to think they ever were the cause directly or indirectly to there childs Autism it would break them in to.x
FYI I AM an "autism mummy", not just following one, and my husband is also on the spectrum.
