i assume that most of the parents on here are in a similar boat as me. always keeping an eye out for any signs that might indicate that the kids might have inherited the condition.
i have two. one is 5 1/2 and other 1 1/2. so far i don't think i have seen anything. though the wife claims that she saw something in the younger one when she was 6 months. but wasn't sure what she saw and we haven't seen anything since.
however, i am noticing something in the younger one which seems a little different. not sure if its something i should act on.
she seems obsessed with lining things up. toys. cups. e.t.c. then taking them all apart. moving them to another part of the room, and lining them up again. not perfectly lined up. but it's obviously lined up and organized.
i am not sure if it's autism or something else and i don't know enough about autism. i read that if it was autism, the child would show no emotions or smile. this is obviously not the case. she shows lots of emotion and lots of affection and communicates a lot.
just curious to hear from other parents who might know more on this.
