It's just a checklist of common things. It can easily be misdiagnosed which I think is the point of this article. Too many people are quick to blame some disorder for their unruly child.

Everyone has there own theory. But how can you expect to know what's going on when you've never experienced autism first hand? Or even second hand? It all comes down to your own insecurities. You know what is beautiful about autism? An autistic person wouldn't be hurt by all of your opinions. They know what life is about and it's not about what you people think. That makes them the bigger person, not you. Everyone has there own opinion on autism. Everyone has there own theory.

Have you any idea at all what the process is for diagnosing conditions such as ADD/ADHD/Autistic Spectrum Conditions? I fear not otherwise you wouldn't be making such a ridiculous statement! I suggest you do a little research and perhaps talk to a Psychiatrist who will enlighten you as to what the procedure is for diagnosis. Your language leaves a lot to be desired also... perhaps your parents didn't do quite such a good job with you? Ben You’re talking absolute rubbish sir.

There is a diagnostic criteria for autism and add, so I don't think parents just claim their kids have it. they actually do ahve it. 2. There is a large genetic compenent for autism, so it's not due to bad parenting. 1.

I think there a people who genuinely have autism, but I feel in alot of cases it's simply a way of the parents explaining why their kid isn't smart, or isn't doing their work like they should. It's an excuse for a lack of discipline or just having a slightly strange kid. Like I said, I think kids do genuinely have it, but not in the numbers people seem to have it today. It's always, 'mild autism' and I say BULLSHIT. It's like the new ADD, yes there are people with ADD, but much of the time it's just an excuse for bad parenting and the kids doing what-ever-the-fuck he wants.

Bad enough he stole Bill Hicks's act and made a fortune off it after Hicks died, leading to: Q. Why is Denis Leary alive and Bill Hicks dead? A. Because there's no cure for cancer. Leary has a whole lot of bad karma coming his way and this just adds to it. Leary proves yet again what an asshole he is, kidding or not.
