Topic of the day: Autism

When you become a parent you always stress about the health and safety of your children. It seems these days we here so much about the growing numbers of Autism. Why is that? I know absolutely nothing about it other than that it is out there and many families are dealing with it.

An article I read this morning about Autism on parents.com was quite interesting.  They did a study on the possibilities linking Maternal Obesity with Autism. If anything, an interesting article to read.
