[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never fully understood how the CDC surveillance has integrity. I believe they identify autism based on educational records alone in some cases. My DS does not have autism, but he might "look" autistic from his IEP paperwork, since it includes social skills goals. [/quote] Yes, they just look at records, not actual children. And the state's give an educational diagnosis based on their state's definition, not the DSM. It's a total sham as far as accuracy.[/quote]
