I do hope this isn't being hijacked for another measles rant thread already. Undoubtedly it often does run in families but 98% autism due to genes seems a bit on the high side to me. Convenient for any government wishing to divert attention and research funding away from other possible causes of autism. Oh I'll rant alright and shamelessly so. The anti-vaccination brigade are endangering the lives of children; who wouldn't rant about that? Perhaps they (the plague bearers) are more at fault for hijacking autism for THIER own ill-informed agenda. Or perhaps they're too busy with their Crystal Healing mumbo jumbo to give a **** about anyone else's child. edited by lovingthesun on 05/03/2015 Some children have had horrific side effects from the vaccine. In such cases parents usually choose to not vaccinate their next child. It isn't always as simple as just getting it done. Funny you mention the MMR vaccine because this has also been linked to autism. I find the percentage linked to genetic causes very high. I have seen children with autism who are the only ones in their family tree with it. I think there are many factors to consider and genetics it's just one of the obvious ones. We want more research and development around all the other causes of this. <em>edited by Hungry_Caterpillar on 05/03/2015</em>

Do you feel there is enough parent involvement in your child's nursery? I ask this because so many pre schools pride themselves on following the EYFS framework but lack a lot of its elements, parent inclusion being one of them. By parent involvement I'm also referring to keeping and managing parent relations. As a parent of a 2 year old who attends full time nursery this is something that regularly frustrates me.

My son loves Ribena. We always pick it up from Geant in IBN. Good luck finding a bottle!
