[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. They found out the genetic causes of Down Syndrome, and now most of those babies get aborted. Did that research do existing babies any good? I remember Reading an article from years ago where they found a drug that helps DS kids learn, but it wasn’t pursued because they found a way to screen for it prenatally. Of course, I can’t find it ten years later. I can see why PP is mad at all the research looking for genetic causes for autism. Once new parents can just abort autistic fetuses, the financial incentive to treat existing cases fries. up. If I’d never read that article, I’d think the pp was crazy, but I get it. [/quote] Yup. The bright side is that they likely won’t ever find a real genetic test or biomarker for autism, apart from those few genetically related syndromes that exist. [/quote]
