Does men has high risk age in terms of pregnancy?

I fathered three kids in my 40s. No autistic babies.

OP, if I were you, I wouldn't worry about it. You guys could certainly wait another year or two.

There is, for example, a six times higher rate of autism in children of men over 40 vs. under 30. For the person saying correlation does not equal causation, the relationship increases monotonically, i.e. the older the man the higher the risk. So it is pretty clearly causative in this case.

but this man is not going to be thirty again. the relevant question is before/after 40 or increased risk by year added.

Neither are the previous blanket statements like "Older fathers are linked to autism (independent of the age of the mother)."

Um do you understand what data means? That "blanket statement " is supported by the data.
