“It would explain why Autism has arisen since the 60s. By product of an STD”

It could be, but the entire autism spectrum / definition has grown since the 1960s too. Kids that used to be considered “weird” yet grew up to be quite normal would have been diagnosed with autism. Hell, I often wonder if *I* would have been diagnosed with Aspebergers had it been a more commonly known “disorder” in the 70s.

Something that wouldn’t shock me is the correlation between money dished out to states to get ‘autistic’ kids out of the classroom at the behest of teacher’s unions. That would basically cover a lot of kids that think outside the box ... basically throw them in learning disability classes and bore them to tears ...

I have taught in three different districts. Autistic kids are in the same classes as all of the other kids for all but a few minutes per day in most cases.

Don’t forget that they weight the students, and the exceptional students bring more $$$$$ to the school. The “autism spectrum” is a sure way to that. Normal kids, who may think outside the box, or don’t fit the norm, can be easily diagnosed by “psychologists”.

I think the over use of ultrasound technology during pregnancy, bombarding preborn babies, is a big money maker in the medical industry, and has a lot to do with an increase in autism.
