∙ 9y agoAutism is thought to be a result of genetic factors, although some environmental factors such as taking certain antidepressants during pregnancy has been linked with Autism we don't know for certain if this causes Autism. There is absolutely nothing wrong with having an autistic child, perhaps rather than trying to avoid having an Autistic child you should learn more about Autism and work on accepting Autistic people to reduce prejudice towards Autism.
