  • (And I'm not commenting the doctor, rather what "ehowhealth" has explained this clip....)

  • I believe the correct explanation is that children that LACK "JA" joint attention, are at an increased risk for autism.

  • Don't all children look for their primary caregiver in order to "read" scary situations?!
