Seriously, I don't think I know more than anyone about autism because my nephew has it. Maybe Sarah has more time than I do to be around her nephew. After all, I only lived with my nephew from the time he was 6 until 14 when I went away to college. But she has been in politics for most if not all of her nephew's life and probably flies in to see him everyday. (at taxpayers expense, of course).. | Did you even see my post?
This isn't about her nephew. . .it's about Trig. As a child with Down's he has a roughly higher than 1 in 10 chance of developing autism. Children with Down's have a much higher rate of autism than non-Down's children.
