Article: Autistic children have distinct facial features, study suggests

Now I am going to be studying his face again and again to see if I see it.  I can understand what they are saying though.  I met one of Jimmy's classmates recently and there was something in his face that echoed his.  I couldn't articulate it then.  It's not that they looked alike to the point they would be close relation.  As a matter of fact, I think his parentage is more exotic than my uber-European lineage.  But there was something about the eyes and the chins that I thought that this boy and Jimmy could pass for cousins.  Of course, this study doesn't really explain why these possible similarities exist.  But anything to get closer to a reason...
