Are your twins biologically identical?
No, they're boy/girl twins.

No, they're boy/girl twins.
If they aren't identical, why are you surprised?
Who said I was surprised?
I said I ask myself the question of why only one twin has autism and not the other whenever a new 'theory' pops up.
Given that they have been raised together, had their injections on the same day, same batch, same doctor, been exposed to the same foods, same amount of plastics, same amount of parental stress n the womb blah blah blah.... why is only one on the spectrum?
FWIW, unless there is scientific evidence (several studies done by reputable people) of the cause of autism then I take all theories with a grain of salt.

I'm sorry, but no, not being toilet trained and not speaking are not solely autistic traits. It could also be Apraxia (sometimes also called Dyspraxia). It is possible for someone to have Apraxia/Dyspraxia and not be autistic.Um, that would be called autism. The inability to toilet oneself is usually due to a combination of sensory and executive function deficits. The inability to speak is usually due to motor planning problems as well as typical communicative deficits/anxiety associated with autism.
