My brother was 35 when his son was born with autism.
I wonder if the issue is really smart people having babies.
All the parents I know who have a child with autism are both professionals --- docotrs, lawyers, engineers, or the like.
Kind of a "too much of a good thing" issue.
There would also (generally) be older parents, given their education, and hence this corrolation.
Of course, it could just be because the only people I hang out with are professionals.
It just goes to show that they are desperate for reasons and they are lashing out at anything that they can. The males sperm, in my opinion, has nothing to do with it. And also, I think it wrong to put blame on one gender.
