its odd that theres no family history but you do find most families dont have, just mine then lol. there no reasearch really done in england you want to look over in america for more info if you ever need it cause they have done much more research on it and we dont get any of the info till a yr or two later i ordered a few dvds on autism when i found out about brandon and there was a study at the time that was mirroring your child that really helped us its made him connect more to us. theres also a study on training dogs to work with autistic children its now available in england and a dvd: life after tom. its strange what you find out on google at 4 in the morning lol xx
thanx 4 the info hun,i have asked alot of q's and gotten no answers since we were made aware of my sons "disability".my local library has no books,i had to pre-order from another library,we were not connected to the net at the time so it was hard to understand what it was and what it meant for my son.bit more clued up now tho,its been 3yrs.will take your advice an look further afield for more information.much appreciated hun.xxxxx

hiya autism does run in families theres 7 autistic boys in my family 4 of them are brothers, my girls have been checked but its more common in boys so if i do have another boy he would have a very high chance of being on the spectrum. seems someone wasn't happy with you idea of being steralized lol i've told bf after our next i'm getting steralized in the hospital 5 mins after its born :)

.hi hun,im aware that there is a very high possability that my youngest son will be on the spectrum and any other sons i may have.i was told its not heredertery and health professionals are still researching autism,my eldest son also has global development delay.there is no family history of autism on either side of the family.????? will have to get more books.lol.as for bein steralized,hmmmm,will worry about that when and if the time comes,haha.this obviously happend for a reason
