    It may be possible to detect autism at a much earlier age than previously thought, according to an international team of researchers.

    Guess I was right

    I find it funny that Autism was unheard of until you couldn't give the unruly little ****ers a slap when they deserved it.

    TBF that int/wasnt autism.

    I think you referr to dyslexia and ADHD etc

    Funnily enough, the question always to ask is that if these kids ADD or ADHD are unable to sit and pay attention in class due to their 'problem'
    how come they can sit for 10 hours in front of xbox etc?

    I think they mean it can be detected earlier by doctors and experts in the field <ok>

    you 'think'?

    what constitutes an expert?

    even the doctors at our hospital with our little one say we are the experts

    <laugh> They mean you're an expert on your own child's condition. Not on the whole spectrum <doh>

    so by that notion a person with a child with autism is an expert in that particular case?

    Yes, but if you did know as much about autism as you profess to, you'd know that one autistic child can be very different from another. That's why it's called a spectrum.

    err so?

    It can be identified earlier than first thought, which I said and you sneered at

    you were wrong and I was right, as backed up by 'experts' in the field
