How Big Autistic People's Heads Are

We got a comment telling us that there is a theory that Autistic people's heads are bigger than people who don't have autism. And that's what the blog is for, if you guys ask us a question then we'll have an answer and we will have more information for our project. So please post more questions and I think we've been getting quite a lot lately. We did some research and we think we have the answer. It is true that autistic people's brain are 5%-10% larger than our brains. But that isn't true for all of them. MOST of them have bigger heads. It's very interesting. They usually have a normal size head during the first year of life but after the first 12 months their heads start growing very fast. Hope that answers your question Adelaine. Thanks and keep on posting! : )

    You girls are both very clever!

    Thank you for the advice on your new website, and where to post and where not to post.

    There is a young man of my acquaintance whose head is bigger than three-quarters of heads.

    (I can see why about AFTER the first year of life). And then there is a failure to prune.

    There might be several different answers.

    You're right but this seemed very reasonable.
