[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are there more children with autism or more children with a diagnosis these days? I don’t recall this many of either, growing up not that long ago. Is it the water? People becoming parents at an older age? Serious question. [/quote] Diagnostic substitution. Everything is being coded as ASD these days, instead of cognitive impairment, language impairment, etc. Even children with genetic syndromes are diagnosed as ASD. [/quote]
