>One out of 88 children in the U.S. has an autism spectrum disorder, according to the latest estimate by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

>Previously the CDC estimated autism's prevalence at about an average of 1 in 110 U.S. children. The new estimate suggests autism is more common than previously thought - about 25 percent more common - and may affect more than one million children and teens in the U.S.

>Boys are still about five times more likely to be diagnosed with autism in the U.S. than girls, according to the CDC report. It estimated one in 54 boys have autism, while one in 252 girls do. The number of children identified with ASDs ranged from 1 in 210 children in Alabama to 1 in 47 children in Utah. The largest increases were among Hispanic and black children.

It's an epidemic.

It's because none of you autists are breeding. Therefore all the non-autists are breeding until autistic children are born then don't have children themselves. Humanity is tending towards autism and it's all your fault.

Blah blah overactive doctors handing out autism diagnoses because pills are easier than parenting.
It's the new ADD/ADHD
In 20 years, some other personality disorder will come along and no-one will give a shit about 'autism'

Very few doctors give medication for autism. When autistic kids get things like ritalin, it's because they have associated disorders like ADD.

Seems you have no idea what you are talking. Autism does not mean "socially awkward and with obsessive interests" in the real world. If anything that's asperger's.

all you need to find is a fat landwhale to complete you.

Though, if you are already looking at all females as disgusting, vulgar creatures that deserve neither your time, effort or affection, and instead deserve a violent dicking and a black eye for being a cunt before making you a sandwhich, then it is too late.

Fat landwhales are usually batshit insane. I wouldn't mind one that was sane, but lost all the fucking weight beforehand.
Which would kinda make them not a landwhale, but I guess that's the point.

It's not an epidemic, it's just that more parents are open about their child's condition nowadays, you know, instead of keeping it a secret from everyone and hiding the kid in the basement, calling it "crazy".

This is actually a good thing.

Can't we just put them down like dogs? Those kids will never amount to anything.
