Taking acetaminophen during pregnancy does not increase the risk of autism, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), or intellectual disability among children. That is according to the most rigorous analysis of the evidence to date, published in The Lancet Obstetrics, Gynecology & Women's Health, and led by researchers from City St George's, University of London.

Growing up in America will affect your intellectual disabilities more than taking paracetamol

No way all Americans could reach the intellectual level of Trump's genius beacon by just growing up in America. There should be something else...

80 years of being told they're "better" (if they are white) than anyone from any other country?

80? What happened 80 years ago in the USA?

USA was better before WW2?

What do you mean??

80 years of being told they’re “better” (if they are white) than anyone from any other country?

I ask if pre-WW2 USA hadn't that very sentiment of "being better than anyone from any other country".

Who knows? I think it matters less as the world Stage was wildly different in the nineteen century.
