Okay, but do people then mean that ADHD comes from vaccines too?

My parents are the complete opposite lol. Any time I mention an autistic related struggle to them, my dad just goes “I’m so sorry” cuz he knows I got it from him🥹

I recently heard a theory that autism is caused by folate supplements and gut microbiome. I also find a lot of the reviews frame their theories about autism causes to be due to some existing pathology in the mother (ie. diabetes). I find this problematic (potential for blame) and confusing. Is ASD purely genetic or is there a behavioural component?

Thought it could be a lot of things for the autism of my son… until I learned I was autistic myself! Now I understand we are born that way!

Love this take. I’m ASD and my kids are ASD. I could understand ppl projecting an emotional fantasy vs logic.

Isn’t there a more scientific explanation? Like glutamate an an additive, that caused similar symptoms?

Could you please please answer this question. Since couples are having children later in life, does that improve the chances of having a child with autism?
