Is it true that mercury causes autism/Asperger's Syndrome? I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome when I was 12 and I have no clue why or how I got Asperger's Syndrome because I don't know anyone in my family that is autistic.
No. I could give you all these scientific papers (after I find them all again), but the short answer is no. Your parents or siblings do not need to have autism for a person to be born with it; it is genetic. I believe they have it up to 15 or 20 markers by now - which makes a cure VERY, VERY hard if at all possible.
