    I think it is likely that putting babies into day care prior to 2 years is the real reason why we are all so regarded or maybe it was under diagnosed

    Vaccines is lower risk factor IMHO but I am just an unhinged shit poster so… Do your own DD

      Leaded gasoline was legal until the early 90s. More and more data seem to point to this behind the cause of many mental disorders

        Gen X got the brunt of that though not millennials. They started phasing out lead in 1973. Autism isn’t a mental disorder and not one linked to lead exposure afaik

        Lead was phased out long before then. A steady decline in crime has been attributed to it’s removal. Not just in the US but in other countries also

          They might be thinking of nuclear bomb testing that went into the 90s. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was associated with various health issues, too.

            No I googled it, they’re correct. Lead in gas was outlawed in the 90’ but they started phasing it out starting in the 70’s. I started driving in '84 and don’t recall ever having a choice but my memory is fallible
