Ahh... the old ‘my child is autistic’ excuse.

“Autism is such a complex disorder. It is easily misdiagnosed,” said Allen, a speech and language pathologist with Henry Ford Health System.

If someone says their child has autism, you have no basis to dispute it. The outward symptoms can be severely obvious to quite imperceptible. No self-styled expert can clinically diagnose a mental malady it on the spot! Ridiculous. Autism IS complex and the term encompasses a spectrum of disorders that have some commonality. I know, because my grown son is autistic. Anyone that denies that autism exists is ignorant of medical facts.
