I was confused and don't get me wrong I think Autism is the most on the rise issues. But the first time he said it he was talking about Palin knows better than anyone. Palin child is Downs. One thing I can say because I know parents who have had to face Autism. They usually have to fight for whatever help there children get. Sometimes if it is the lighter form of Autism you fight with the doctors to eveb test your child. Downs children have more of a medical issues. I was just confused about why he kept saying Autism because it sounded like he didn't know what Palin's child had.
It is medically called Down Syndrome, and is also called Trisomy 21. It has nothing to do with Autism. Down Syndrome is a chromosomal defect and most of those self-abort, but when a woman chooses to have children like Palin did, over the age of 40, the chances for it increase dramatically with each passing year.
