Hello, I was wondering, what are the chances of having a child with autism are if a person has one sibling and one half-sibling with high-functioning autism?
To make it interesting, let’s say I have a cousin with Aspergers’ Syndrome, and my partner has the siblings with autism. Both of us are very healthy, but we’re concerned about having a child with austism and/or aspergers’.

What Is The Likely-hood Of My Child Being Born With Autism?
My step son has the autism disorder. My husband’s ex-wife keeps telling me that my child could have this because it is genetic. Is there proof that autism is genetic? Or is she just trying to scare me because she is pissed that we are having a child of our own?

Does Anyone Have A Child With Symptoms Similar To Those Associated With Autism, But It Is Something Else?
My son is 20 months old. The symptoms that fit on the autism spectrum are that he speaks no words but can hear fine, he flaps his hands when frustrated, and frequent tantrums. But what doesn’t fit is that he is very social, makes a few gestures, and plays with other children appropriately. They say he is probably on the spectrum. But I’m wondering if there are other disorders with similar symptoms. Any help would be great!
