"Could that statistic be correct? Unfortunately, yes. It's not a misprint. According to the Department of Health and Human Services National Survey of Children's Health, 1 out of every 91 children — 1% of American kids today — has an autism spectrum disorder. That's up from 1 child in every 150, just a few years ago in 2007... And if that’s not shocking enough, these statistics don’t even include adult prevalence or those children who remain undiagnosed — a still too common occurrence."
Shocking, huh?
Just thought I would share!
