I have read that researchers believe that autism could be the result of genetic predisposition and possible environmental factors.
As I've read people's posts concerning their upbringing it seems as though there may be quite a few of us who had less than ideal family environments.
I thought it might be interesting to get an idea of what percentage of us had either genetic factors, environmental factors or both.
My own situation was violent and disfunctional. I also believe it is likely my father had AS and my nephew does. Therefore my own situation had both a genetic and environmental component.
