The hosts asked Dr. Klinger everything from how to refer to kids on the autism spectrum, to what’s new on the research front related to causation and treatment. They even asked her about vaccinations.

From the hosts of the podcast: “Whether you have children with Autism or not, we think this is an important topic, and one that parents need to hear. We need more empathy and compassion in this world, and as you’ve heard us say before, that starts with our kids.”
