  • countries with highest rates of autism United States and South Korea these countries also use more vaccines then any other country in the world. If this aint the main cause of it maybe you'd love to enlighten me, Perhaps it's all the cheeseburgers?

  • @shanglies 360p?

  • Very good video.

    I wish YouTube featured more videos of such a high quality.

  • @wkryan well said

  • @Nigralurker nah but it does come in strawberry.

  • @wkryan same with me. though i have nothing against "stricken". Its a great song XP

  • ugh - my son is not "stricken" with Autism - he is autistic and wonderfully and beautifully made.

  • Detecting autism early is very important. I am so blessed that my wife saw the signs in our son very early and was able to take action to help our son. I don't think prenatal testing is needed for autism, just awarness. It is easy to catch autism if you know how a child should develope and be aware of how your child acts. For our son it was flapping hands, content to being alone for long periods, His extream fasination with leaves on trees (he would pet trees for hours), & other things.

  • Does autism come in a honey mustard flavor?

  • I'm glad that my case of autism is not very bad :) feel sorry for them that has worse then me :(
