“Autism rates are higher in areas like the Silicon Valley. That goes against your theory.”
How does that follow? Not only do those people use drugs as much as any californiac, given their higher income they probably use more than most.
The ones I know do not use drugs!
I have a 20 year daughter with a brain injury, and we live in the Silicon Valley.
The parents are now in their late 50s, and fairly conservative.
A lot of the parents are both techies, and we’ve wondered if there is something to that. This area has lots of techies marrying each other (I’m one of them).
Most of my friends think there is something going on genetically.
Vaccines may not start it, but also may not help it.
