How is this news? When my son was found to have autism, this information was routinely mentioned to us. I even saw a slide presentation that mentioned it (seven years ago). They said the size on the amygdala in a child of two (with autism) is already the size of an adult's amygdala.

I believe people with autism should be accepted for who they are, but think a cure should be pursued! Autism can be a terrible experience for those who have it...
