  • Rett Syndrome is on the Autistic Spectrum Disorder, however, many believe that it is misclassified! Rett Syndrome features include small hands & feet as suggested below, also included is the slow rate in which a head would grow... In short, growth failure.

  • @saleen01 If you knew what rett syndrome really was, then your ass would really be able to appreciate how this mouse was rescued.

  • @saleen01 its not the ass they're shoing us, its the feet i think

  • Rett Syndrome is an autism spectrum disorder

  • odd, considering it's a mouse.

  • i didnt really see anything special but the rats ass at the end of the video.

  • It is an interesting video, But the title and description confuse autism and "Rett syndrome-like symptoms". It may be good for ratings and publicity but blurring the subject can not be a good thing.
