1. **Genetics & Family Risk**: Family history remains a strong predictor—those with autistic relatives or certain genetic conditions (like Fragile X) have higher odds. New gene-targeted therapies are showing promise for improving cognitive and daily living skills.
2. **Safety Alert**: Autistic children are **160x more likely to drown** than neurotypical peers—water safety is critical.
3. **Sleep & Health**: Research highlights sleep’s impact on emotional regulation; tailored sleep strategies can help.
4. **Diagnosis Improvements**: Rising rates reflect better awareness and access to services, not just increased prevalence.
