    From my research there seems to be both genetic and non genetic based autism.  The causes are still in question with ongoing research in that area.  If genetically based, it seems to be common for a parent to be diagnosed after their child is diagnosed and they have learned the symptoms and recognize them in themselves. There are many different levels of autism and the higher functioning are much harder to diagnose.
