Guest guest Posted November 3, 2006 Report Share Posted November 3, 2006 The closest I heard to that was the number on the CNN piece about the CAA, it said 1 in 94 boys are diagnosed with autism. Cathie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Cherish, Actually the autism spectrum (1 in 166) does NOT include ADD, ADHD, speech delay, etc. It only accounts for Autism, PDD NOS, Aspergers, Rhett’s syndrome, and child disintegrative disorder. Usually numbers are done either Autism alone or full spectrum includes all five. If you include ADD, ADHD, speech delay the rate is 1 in 6 children (yes I meant 1 in 6). As for the 1 in 85…..Wasn’t there a recent story about Oregon and there number of ASD kids were 1 in 98. It was 1 in 80 boys. Maybe that’s the number you heard. - From: EOHarm [mailto:EOHarm ] On Behalf Of cherish aandahl Sent: Friday, November 03, 2006 6:26 PM EOHarm Subject: Re: One in 85?!?!?

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 If I am not mistaken, the numbers 1 in 166 include boys and girls so the ratio for boys would be a lot less than 1 in 166. Maybe that's where that 1 in 80 comes form.Chap 'n Ali <chapnalli@...> wrote: Cherish, Actually the autism spectrum (1 in 166) does NOT include ADD, ADHD, speech delay, etc. It only accounts for Autism, PDD NOS, Aspergers, Rhett’s syndrome, and child disintegrative disorder.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 Thanks for the info, you guys rock. I would try to contack Mr. , but I wouldn't have much chance of getting through. He usually is very thorough with his information, but I guess anyone can make a mistake every now and then.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 I believe it is Oregon. We lived their with our two boys (asd) before we moved to Sacramento. My son started out in his early child developement program/EI as a minority to the NT kids in his preschool class. By the time we left 14 months later, the ASD children were the majority of the children in the program. They started laying off the reg ed preschool teachers so that they could hire more autism staff. > > > > I was listening ot the refeed of the radio show, and he > said > > the new numbers are out, and now one in 85 children develop autism.

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2006 Report Share Posted November 5, 2006 There was a day last summer where my family was walking around the Toledo Zoo and I told my husband, " I think the numbers are really 1 in 100 " (not 1 in 166), just because of the number of kids we saw.
