Last week, the journal, Pediatrics, released new statistics compiled by the Center for Disease Control on the prevalence of autism. The rate has gone from 1 in 150 to 1 in 100. This rate is more than double the amount of children diagnosed with autism since 1996. Over the past dozen years, autism has made sad, steady progress from an obscure syndrome to a seemingly ubiquitous developmental disorder.
