![]() Dr. Marty Burns webinar on autism is a great source of the latest news on Autism research and interventions. "So just summarizing this then, autism spectrum disorders are neuro developmental problems but they're also poly genetic......Understanding that autism spectrum disorder is not caused by diet, it is not caused by vaccinations it is caused by genes that interfere with various aspects of development of the brain long before the baby is even born and in many cases, it looks like long before the brain even starts to develop." If interested you man watch the 7 minute video here: http://clicks.aweber.com/y/ct/?l=BY2Df&m=3gJqYyeRTm6PmQg&b=jKZzRAKK5usFfPY29G3OVw I also found a great article about why its important to teach kids about autism, Here's a small excerpt from the article: "Why should you talk to your kids about autism? Because statistically speaking, your child knows at least one kid with autism and interacts with him or her on a daily basis. Because the more we talk to our kids about accepting and understanding differences, the less likely they are to bully other kids. Because when you talk to your kids about being accepting of the “quirky” kids in their class, you’re also teaching them to be accepting of other kinds of differences: skin colors, accents, clothing brands, religious beliefs, music preferences." www.babble.com/mom/autism-acceptance-month-10-things-i-wish-your-kids-knew-about-autism/
