What I found most interesting in the article was the information about the Interactive Autism Network - do any parents here belong?

I like that the researcher was concerned about achieving earlier intervention instead of curing or "preventing" autism. Interesting stuff.

That article is positive for the most part. The thing that I don't like, is that they call it a disease when it's not. It was very well written and positive, for the most part.
