[quote=Anonymous]My in laws never really talked about their genetic issues while I was dating my DH. I was very impressed with DH’s family- all college educated with advanced degrees, except for BIL, who they said, has Asperger’s. Compare that to my family who grew up low class in SE Asia. My DH was forthcoming about his ADD since he was 9. Anyway, after I gave birth to our son, my MIL showed really old pictures of her family with similar facial features as my BIL. Turns out, Fragile X runs in her side of the family. My DH only has a premutation and BIL has a full mutation. I’ve been keeping watch of my son, making sure we catch any signs of autism. We are stopping at one child, though. We can’t risk a daughter passing it on.[/quote]
