Mother of autistic children slams Trump's autism comments

Charlotte, North Carolina resident Jennifer Cook is a mother of three children with autism, an author on the subject, and a member of the Autism Society of America’s Board of Directors. Cook said she felt "angry, afraid and really sad" when she heard President Donald Trump link autism to the use of Tylenol during pregnancy, elevating claims not backed by scientific evidence into a public‑health debate that reaches into her family’s daily life and medicine cabinet.
