No one knows. For awhile there was word that it has to do with the innoculations that today's children are required by their pediatrician to take. However, the fact is - autism and its traits usually become apparent to the parent by age 2 or 3...when innoculations take place, so it's thought that the vaccinations and autism are just coincidence.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, so I don't necessarily believe vaccines are at fault here.
The other theory is - back in the day - kids like this just used to get beaten until they whipped into shape. Which is unfortunate...it's not unlike asking the blind to look at the eye chart and "just tell me what the hell you see, damn it."
