Brick New Jersey high rate of autism

Hi everyone, I was reading something about the town of Brick New Jersey. The stats of the rate of Autism are out of control !!!!!! What I read was about 1 in 150 kids have autism??? That is really strange! I know here in Pittsburgh Pa very have a very high rate too. I know where I live we have about 10 kids with Autism in a 1 1/2 mile range of my house, now mind you that is the only ones that I know about. I mean I have two with Autism, we live on a very small street. The kid that is about 5 doors away has it. Then the kid around the corner from us has Autism too. This just really scares me!!!! Hugs to you all!! Mom to Lauren 3/w Autism Evan 2/w Autism Shawn 4 w/ possible aspergers
