For example,  is it possible that our current high-intervention birth 
practices are  contributing to this? 
Check out the Primal Health research data bank because there is so much  
research to show that birth practices are 
contributing._(http://www.birthworks.org/primalhealth/_ (http://www.birthworks.org/primalhealth/) )

Or foods,  particularly the use of ABM or 
starting certain foods too  early?
There is also research showing that a diet full of fruits, vegetables,  
grains, and good protein resolves behavior problems in school-aged  children.

Or  environmental contaminants? 
How can we survive in a world of chemicals that our bodies don't even have  
metabolic pathways to handle? Rachel Carson's Silent Spring is a good  place to 
begin reading about this serious situation.

Or  
parenting approaches? We know that a baby's brain is growing and  developing 
significantly in the first few years and so anything that  happens then could 
contribute.


Yes.
    warmly,
