Indeed, now that more people are being recognized as having it, we can truly understand how prevalent autism is in the world. Whether it is becoming more prevalent or it has always been that way, once enough people become aware, there will be more support to do something about it if it all goes right. Imagine, just imagine the benefits to all of mankind when each disorder no matter what it is becomes finally a thing of the past someday! Society having it's wounds patched up bit by bit! Less suffering, less pain, less drain of resources!

I want to apologize to the entire forum. I have been a terrible person, very harsh and critical.
I still hold many of my views, but I will tone down my anger and stop being so bigoted and judgmental. I can't possibly know how you see things and will stop thinking I know everything you all think.
