Akron Children’s Hospital pointed out this interesting infographic to me this morning. It basically summarizes the Autism and it’s impact in a unique way. While I question the whole 80% divorce rate (thought that had been debunked), this infographic provides very useful information and I want to thank Akron Children’s Hospital for sharing it with me so I can share it with you. 🙂

The 80% thing has been debunked by at least one study. http://www.webmd.com/brain/autism/news/20100519/autism-famlies-high-divorce-rate-is-a-myth
According to my parents, I didn’t speak till I was 19 months old. My first word was “giraffe.” What kind of first word is that? Whatever happened to “mama” and “dada” and stuff?
Tell me why you debunk the 80% divorce rate?
stealing and reposting- yes, stealing 🙂
