Question: Vidya went to Vikram because she was anxious. Anxious for whom? Her unborn child or Angel? Or both?

thanks for the update! i had a feeling Vidya was worried about her unborn child being autistic.... she has a right to worry actually because there is a higher chance of her unborn child being autistic. I am glad the myths were cleared about autism but really there still hasn't been any proof that Autism is genetic.....

I have a family member with autistic disorder, am I at risk for having a child with autistic disorder?

There is no simple answer to this question since autistic disorder has many causes. Several inherited disorders are associated with autistic-like behavior. Some of these disorders include fragile X syndrome, tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), and neurofibromatosis type1 (NF1). If testing indicates one of these disorders is responsible for autistic disorder in your family, then the chance for another person in the family to have the disorder can be specifically predicted.

In individuals where autistic disorder is caused by a known environmental factor, such as lead poisoning, the risk of autistic disorder occurring in another member of the family is very small.

In most cases, no specific cause for autistic disorder in an individual is found. A careful evaluation of the family history may enable a genetics professional to estimate the likelihood of autistic disorder recurring in a family member, but it is not always possible to determine an exact figure.

• Yes. The gene changes that contribute to autistic disorder in your family may be new changes that occurred when DNA was copied to make sperm or eggs. Alternatively, since autistic disorder may be caused by a combination of many genetic and environmental factors, these factors may have only combined sufficiently to cause autistic disorder in one member of your family.

This is getting Good. thanks. ^^ thanks cici.
