So part of the reason is better diagnosis. However, what is around today that wasn't around in the 60's. You guessed it Marijuana!

41% of people 19-34 either use or have used Mary Jane. And now that it is a recreational accepted drug, pregnant women seem to think it isn't harmful to a fetus.
I still don't agree with calling it a fetus, it's a baby. Mary Jane just doesn't leave your system overnite.

I think the government will eventually find this out that it's not whats in the water that causes autism. It's in the smoke. Admitting it will be another issue so they don't disturb a multi million dollar business. DAH
Hooey! I have a cousin with two brain damaged children. They were never diagnosed as autistic until recently and are considered "under the autism spectrum". Neither she nor her husband ever partook in marijuana. More likely, the causes are due to all the pollutions in our environment which will only increase with the WH deregulations.
