:) thanks. you have no idea. just . .. thanks..
This is a pretty good video, but it gives the false impression that very young babies are often diagnosed with autism. From my understanding, it's rare to get a diagnosis before age 2, and it's often closer to age 3.
Also, autism is a spectrum disorder, which means that not every child is the same in characteristics and severity of symptoms.
