  Is this true...SG so dependent on human resources...
  is it the food we eating now or due to later marriages??
  
  
  Sometimes you see those kids, you also feel sad...nowadays if your children are not in gifted prgram..already deemed as stupid...this autistic children how they survive in SG island??

  I think it's due to the rise in the number of shrinks and psychologists .....

  You're probably not far off the mark there, Fatum. When you're holding a hammer, everything looks like a nail, and there are an unfortunate number of halfwits in my field who are prone to this.
  
  The other culprits are teachers. I've lost count at the number of teachers I've seen hit the panic button and start spouting nonsensical diagnoses when the problem is that they simply suck at teaching.
