[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just watched a few of Huxley’s videos, and I don’t think he has autism. I think he is delayed due to neglect and trauma in infancy. I think with the right therapies and loving and attentive parents, Huxley will start talking and go on to live a normal life.[/quote] He apparently had a stroke in utero, so it's possible that the resulting cognitive & physical delays were misdiagnosed as autism. That said, she alludes to aggression against the other kids in the house, which is definitely something that can happen with autism. My DS is very mildly impacted by his autism, but he has had periods of severe aggression to other kids. I can't tell you how often I've been grateful that we never had a 2nd child -- that would be extremely hard to deal with his aggression towards a baby. None of this excuses the adoptive parents, who should have considered all of this before adopting (and having another baby, wtf!)[/quote]
