Comment I'm Special! Give me a cookie! (Score 0, Flamebait) 861
This is an entirely social problem that has very little (if anything at all) to do with genetics. Look at how it is diagnosed: you are diagnosed on a very vague scale of normalcy in several areas. If you're not normal, you're autistic.
Well, guess what? If you don't know how to be normal, it's because you weren't ever taught to be normal. Even the autistic parents have an idea of normalcy, but if they lack the skills to teach normalcy to their kids, hello autistic children.
Now, when is this most likely to happen? Well, let's say Christine is a poor child of one of these incompetent couples. She's six months old, and both her parents work twelve hour days while she stays in daycare. Level of human interaction? Approximately none. Time until she turns autistic? According to the article, eighteen months until her lack of taught normalcy outweighs the normal instinctive behaviour she is born with.
When I went through college, I saw all the smart people. Most of them weren't attracted to "The Valley," maybe because they wanted to spend time with their girlfriends and wives, but of the dozens that I knew, only two of them were antisocial like that. And I can tell you that when I meet them today, their children don't have any problems, either. As for the other two, I haven't seen them in years, but I hear that Wilfred is in San Jose, and Norm is in Seattle.
Really, this is just masturbation. Some of these people crave the attention that they can't get through normal human interactions like the rest of us have. Well, short of taking them away from their parents, there isn't much that can be done. Hi Christine! You're special, here's your stupid cookie.
