Yeah, it's difficult cos professionals are not much here. I read hereditary, alcohol consumption and taking some kind of drugs can cause autism. I heard some people outgrow autism (very rare), I dunno if it's true tho...

99.9% causes of Autism is unknown ma.

I didn't specifically mention autism. I said 'intellectually impaired' and some of these problems can be detected.

I'm a very curious person hope you don't mind tho. Did you discover it when he was still a baby? Is it hereditary one of the factors that causes autism?

Let me answer this. The cause of autism is unknown. Some children develop normally and then start to regress or lose the abilities and speech they once had after events which could include Immunization. It could also be a child meeting other milestones but not learning from the environment.
People on the Autism spectrum, contrary to what I have read on this post, have the potentials to be geniuses once it's well managed. A lot of exceptional people including Messi,Mark Zuckerberg ,Albert Einstein, Steve Jobs have all demonstrated traits of people on the Autism Spectrum.
A classic trait of people on the autism spectrum is Repetitive actions. Because they can do the same things over and over again, if it's rightly channeled, they become geniuses in their fields.

All special needs parents in Nigeria should try and take this survey. It will help shape the future of services in Nigeria. Please complete the survey if your child/children has Autism, ADHD, Cerebral Palsy or any other developmental condition.

That's why it's better to do an ultrasound to detect abnormalities in the child. It's better not to bring them to this world instead of letting them suffer. I feel bad the way some people treat them and how they're discriminated.

Which utrasound? lol

Utrasound will show jaundice? or
Utrasound will show rhesus problem? abi
Utrasound will that the baby may not cry early?

Utrasound will show hole in the heart abi?

My dear,that utrasound has a lot of limitations and things it cannot detect.

Just pray to your God and use good government facilities

*sigh* Some people sha, "I must talk"
I wasn't talking about jaundice neither was I talking about rhesus but I was talking about "intellectual impairment"
Next time read properly and understand before running your mouth in an issue you know nothing about cos it makes you look really silly.
And some intellectual impairment can be detected through ultrasound. Ultrasound can reveal brain abnormalities in babies. And I only came up with this topic cos of how bad people treat special children.

Then you dont really know all the things that leads to it...
Jaundice can lead to brain injury that will make a child intellectually inpaired.
Same with a babies inability to cry in the first few minutes after birth.
