Autism Threat: Is it Innocent Child’s Nightmare?

According to research, estimates of fifty children are diagnosed with autism everyday in the United States. Aside from that, the number of autistic children is increasing in the whole country.

Autism was considered as a rare condition before; however, the increasing number of children being diagnosed with autism has caused it to become an epidemic in some areas of the country.

Currently, almost half a million children are diagnosed with autism in the United States. Because of this, parents are alarmed and are looking for more information about the signs and symptoms of autism. This is quite difficult because the growth and development in every child is different. There are some health care professionals that tend to delay the diagnosis to give the gap for normal growth and development. They also delay the diagnosis because they want to wait until the signs are clear in relation to the child’s behavior.

In general, there are early signs and symptoms of autism; however, a confirmatory diagnosis is not made until the child reaches three to four years of age. Signs and symptoms of autism can already be observed in the later months of the first year of life.

Experts have found out that autistic children have a delay in their language skills. These children may utter some words but these words are not understandable and usually not for communication.

Autistic children do not enjoy games that are usually enjoyed by normal children such as peek-a-boo. Children who have autism also can’t easily pick up gestures such as waving, unlike a normal child. If you would carefully observe a child with autism, you would notice that the child’s expression is not very expressive and vivid.

One of the most common symptoms associated with autism is doing repetitive movements. Movement of the hands is noticeable and quite disturbing because of the repetitive motion. Seeing a child who does repetitive actions can signify autism but it may not be enough reason to conclude the diagnosis.

One significant finding of experts in children with autism is that these children often experience intestinal problems. The poor behavior of children with autism is often associated to gastrointestinal pain. However, since children with autism are unable to express themselves directly, parents are unaware of this pain and would often neglect the child, thinking that it is just one of the antics of the child. This is disappointing but it happens most of the time.

It’s all the GMA foods,vaccines,pharmacueticals and pollution. The banksters run things and they have investments but human beings are only a cost on their balance sheets-a LIABILITY. Globalized slavery, the global New World Order run by the banksters because they control ALL the money! David Rockefeller has been the Godfather for decades here.
Anyway they are re-inventing the human race with hybrid aliens and replacing us. Buzz Aldrin and Armstrong both radioed back about seeing that Alien UFO out their window. Buzz had been a devout Christian and church elder but upon returning to earth never went back to church and became an alcoholic. Armstrong later in life talked about the truth but they had been sworn to secrecy by NASA. Oh some of them look human, some don’t. 38 years ago we saw one up on Cape Breton Island, NS and it sure wasn’t anything we made. Killing off the lower forms soon.
They’re here and taking over in their New World Order.

Dear Tech….
You appear to be suffering from a vitamin deficiency….ask your doctor about Vitamin Haldol. You’ll be amazed how much better you’ll feel once you get those Vitamin H blood levels up.
P.S. Jesus says, “Hi”

Larry Lubell Says:

Autism is a Topic of significant importance to more than a million families across the US. I have heard “Heart-Wrenching tales from parents who’s children suffer for this condition.

I read the comment of “Tech” written above, and I have to say it is the work of a practical joker, or a person with some very real problems.

The Earth is not fat, The Moon Walk was not Faked, Obama was born in the United States.
There are no great New World Order plots.
ASK Bill Clinton, If a president can’t keep a Blue dress secret, how is he going to keep an Alien invasion secret?

Crystal Prince Says:

Tech: Do you really believe what you have written? As the mother of two children diagnosed with Autism, I can wholeheartedly say that my children are not in any way related to aliens, NASA conspiracies, or any other bull**** you can spew. It’s bad enough when Jenny McCarthy screams “it is the immunizations”, now I have to endure your twisted stupid theory. Get some sleep, tech, and stop watching so much sci-fi.

Wooooow, Someone needs a shrink!

I am degreed in child development. My grandson was developing normally and growing through the milestones of the developmental period at an above average rate. We took him in for his normal routine for vaccination in January. As far as we knew everything went fine. Four months later we began to notice that he stopped making eye contact and would no longer respond to us when we called his name. Six months later we learned the physician’s office had mistakenly given him an overdose of vaccine. He has declined to such a degree, it’s heartbreaking. We tried to get help and were told his diagnosis for Autism had nothing to do with the vaccinations. He behaves like an individual on an hallucinogenic. We want a cure for Autism. Anything less is unacceptable.

Amy Foss Says:

R-

Please contact a developmental pediatrician. Although there is no definitive link between Autism and Vaccines, there IS a link between vaccine overdose or “hot lots” and brain damage. Your Grandson may have been misdaignosed with Autism. Please google some of the cases that have gone before the Vaccine Court, there are some that sound very similar to your grandson.

Folks,
The British doctor that made the statement that immunizations have a link to autism has since retracted his statements. He had no test groups, no case studies. He is in deep doggy dodo here at Cambridge in the U.K. Don’t forget some doctors have stated that too many antibotics, too much glutin causes autism. Austism is now properly diagnosed. It is not a mystery anymore. Specialsts now know what they are seeing. There is an awareness of the disorder. Autistic children were often labled with childhood schizophrenia and slammed into mental institutions and hidden in the 1930 on through the late 1970’s. Peds doctors only had a few short weeks of autism knowledge in their learning clinics 20 years ago. Now it is a clinic class with more depth for the interns. I have two autistic children. Both are now young adults. My boys were diagnosed at the early ages of 18 and 20 months. They had issues when they were 6 months of age. They “talked to the angels” way too much. Stop blaming and start advocating. You are your child’s voice. You need to take control and protect your child’s right to an education,therapies (such as speech,ot, pt), a job and give them a sense of well being, of self-esteem. The cure is a long way away. This is a genetic disorder. It is passed throught the chromosones. Stop the denial and get busy. Waiting for the cure and not helping the child to adapt and survive is a shame. Be proud of your children. They are a gift. Treat them as such.
