Until a couple of years ago - I traveled a lot for business. Which would put me in airports, restaurants and hotels.

Not exactly the "hot spots" for children.

Everywhere I go on travel and now in my backyard of the state of California I can play the game "I spy a kid with autism."

It reminds me of the license plate game on long trips I played with my brothers and sisters on driving trips.

These kids are EVERYWHERE. You don't have to be a rock scientist or even a CDC employee to see we are up to our eye balls.

Mind you I have yet to find the hidden horde of adults with autism but the children with autism - they are everywhere I go.

How can anyone deny this epidemic is beyond me. Why we cannot even get to the basic beginning facts is killing me slowly.

Beer please.

Any study released by the CDC that has any bearing on autism should berejected on its face because of the conflict of interest issues, nomatter how benign or even favorable the findings, in my opinion. Thisshould be the consistent response; it's the one the public needs tohear if we're ever going to get independent clean answers, or at theleast, cleaner answers.Lenny>> > (tylerhaley01@...) has sent you a news article. > (Email address has not been verified.)> ------------------------------------------------------------> Personal message:> > This got me: And parents of older children could easily haveforgotten an early childhood diagnosis, she said.

They deny it because they have to deny it. The alternative is to acknowledge what they have done to more than 45 million children. Worse, to babies.

I took a trip today. It was 55

miles each way. I saw 6 cars with autism awareness ribbons on them.

We are everywhere!

Any study released by the CDC that has any bearing on autism should be

rejected on its face because of the conflict of interest issues, no

matter how benign or even favorable the findings, in my opinion. This

should be the consistent response; it's the one the public needs to

hear if we're ever going to get independent clean answers, or at the

,

I'm there with you. Especially when kids are on planes. Amazing

and yes many are still going undiagnosed as well.

As a police officer with evidence tech. training I'm called upon to

do many of our department's PR details that involve fingerprinting

kids for safety cards. See loads of it there as well, not the low

numbers as when I started twenty years ago.

Then there is the awareness factor as well. I wear a puzzle ribbon

on my uniform and each and everyday on calls at least one person has

a story about their child or someone they know with ASD.

We also travel to Disney quite a bit, did both the Disneyland and

Disney World this year, and each year we've worn ribbons. The

numbers of folks there that recogize the ribbon too have increased.

Can't be our imaginations.

I'll take a martini.

If your kid is in school the next time you talk to the teacher why not informally ask if they are seeing less new kids on the spectrum coming in?

(I don't think I will forget my son's diagnosis!) ---------------------------------------------------------- Schieve needs a reality check, big-time!It seems to me that this woman may not have any kids, especially none diagnosed with any sort of ASD. This "early childhood diagnosis", even if some have recovered or improved to some extent, is not the same as the colds or ear infections which we may find more difficult to remember. My oldest son is almost 18, and I still remember when he was tested and received his diagnosis (actually, it happened when he was already older), and I don't think I'll ever forget my youngest son's diagnosis, since I had to work so hard to find qualified professionals who could give him a diagnosis. However, after

experiencing the something akin to a "grieving process" that some (or is it many or most?) of us go through after such a diagnosis for any of our children, I cannot understand how this woman can even imagine that any of us could forget such a diagnosis for any one of them! She, obviously, has no idea of what it means to be the parent of a child who has been diagnosed with autism or any other form of ASD, because that is something we are not likely to forget, unless we ourselves become a brain-addled due to dementia or Alzheimer's.

Its a F'ing survey! They don't even know the numbers.

Autism is the red haired bastard one arm step child in the corner (and sorry to anyone who has red hair - I had some originally before the GRAYS CAME IN!)

This sucks. A f'ing survey !!!

Hispanics not diagnosed as much. Another crock.

Why not just say anyone that is English is a 2nd language gets screwed.

Blood is boiling in Newport.

And I had 2 martinis (I lied about the beer - that is the usual choice..)

THEY ARE CLUELESS AND DOING SURVEYS??!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
