[QUOTE="Suz, post: 13268, member: 29"] I just finished watching my tape of the show. It was incredible. The whole hour was devoted to autism. It was informative, respectful and tender. Toni Braxton was the co-host for the day. Her 3.5 year old son was just diagnosed with autism in September. She was very weepy and overwhelmed. My heart broke for her. 20 years ago autism affected 1:10,000. Today it's 1:166. And they don't know why or how it happens. It is 4 times more frequent in boys than girls but they had both as guests on the show. But many of you probably already know these statistics. They featured families and kids at all ends of the spectrum, from nonverbal to "cured" through early intervention ABA training. Fran, you would have loved that Temple Grandin was there! A self-described geek, she was engaging and interesting. I was blown away. It was an excellent show. Suz [/QUOTE]
