Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsI've been thinking and discovered a link between autism and paper diapers. The big uptick
in autism came about during the same time period that Pampers etal came on the market. That's the only thing that I can think of that came out new in the same time period, country wide and makes as much sense as the autism/vaccination link.

I couldn't afford them, but that was when I got a sample in the mail.

keeping this quiet is big diaper!!! They make too much money and don't care if our kids get autism. It's the only possible conclusion dammit.
