Ok, I have a question. I thought about this the other day. Do the increasing amount of vaccinations children are told to receive have anything
to do with increasing number of children with autism?
50 years ago, not many for me. 30 years ago, maybe a couple new ones added. But now, it seems children are told to get shot after shot, even for
something not life threatening normally.
I know this next statement will sound mean or cruel, but it is faced by parents of severely disabled children. When you see programs about how
autistic children are being helped, it can give one a warm fuzzy feeling to see a cute child smiling, making great progress. But what is not shown is
what will happen when that child grows into an adult. At a time when most parents are having their children leave the nest, parents of children with
such disabilities cannot look forward most times to an independent adult, and face being permanent caretakers of the child. More children with autism
means more families having to face this situation.
