mitochondrial dna
I hear all these people say well vaccines aggregate mitochondrial dna in a child and that is why they develop autism. However something in that argument didn't sound correct and I thought and thought for a while then it hit me, mitochondrial DNA is passed exclusively from mother to child. If it was mitochondrial dna then girls should be developing autism at around the same rate as boys, however this is not the case, boys develop autism four times as much as girls.
If a couple had six children all six children have the same mitochondrial dna, but one has autism? How can this be if they all have the same mitochondrial dna? Well answer is that mitochondrial dna has little to do with autism or nothing at all to do with autism.
I believe we need to look else where for the cause. I believe that we need to look at the chromosomes first, because they are the most suspicious. If a female has a problem with one chromosome the other can help fix the problem however in males this is not the case the because the X and Y chromosomes cannot cover for each other.
If chromosomes are the cause it would explain why girls develop autism much less than boys. A boy would only have to have one defect on either of his chromosomes however for a girl she would have to have the same defect on both of her chromosomes.

I'm not so sure about this theory either. I am pretty sure I got my tendencies from my father's side. Apparently I read it is complicated, with more than one gene possibly being involved, and unknown environmental factors contributing too.

Taking a break.
It is very frightening that people buy into this BS even when their it makes no sense.
