Dear fairyfarmgirl, the preview of the horse boy brought tears to my eyes. I will see the full documentary if I get a chance.
The thought did come to mind, that a horse doesn't heal brain damage... A horse draws a young boy in.
Mercury is bad.. Eating fish however quickly introduces a larger dose of mercury to your system.
You say that the prevalence of autism began to grow around the 1980's.. Which is only about a decade after we had proper diagnosis for it. Considering that the information was transferred by journal in those days it's logical to expect more and more diagnosis will be made in that decade. The occurrences of a disorder we count are not the same as the real occurrences. There's a good chance they've always been with us.
There's even a chance like horseboy's mother says that they're not actually damaged or sick.
Watch this, we don't understand autism yet.
First part she shows in her language, second part she shows the same in our language translated by a computer. Do watch until the second part the first part can be difficult if we don't understand it.

It's not what I learned in university. She's not supposed to be able to do that... She's also not the only one who spoke out since she did.
With all respect fairyfarmgirl and everyone else.. I know we are on opposing perspectives. I doubt I'll change my mind because I've been studying this one of the last times it came round. I don't really think autism is equal to brain damage. I do think it's quite likely related in some way to wanderer children. I don't really want to change your minds, the way I see it you're all adults making choices and I want to respect that. Kids have died for not being vaccinated, and since the antivax movement came up child death occurred more and more.
So I feel obliged to put in this word of caution. Just because the Antivax community believes firmly in their cause doesn't make them right.
Namaste
