"It's no coincidence that as the number of Crystals are born, that the number of diagnoses for autism is at a record high."
People will look to anything to deny that their child has an illness, whether mental or physical. I'm sure that not all of these children are autistic, but I'm willing to saw a low margin of them are.
It's a bit sad to me, but I don't think my mother ever gave up hope that God would cure my brother, whether through a miracle or some surgery. I knew better, because while I do believe science and magic(or whatever you want to call it, I just think of it as working or manipulating energy) do not disprove each other(hello, quantum physics!) I had no right to strip her faith from her, but I knew it was impossible.
