      Can genetic testing predict if my child will develop autism or a learning disability?

      Genetic testing can identify certain gene changes linked to a higher risk of developmental conditions in some cases, but autism and learning disabilities usually involve a mix of genetic and non-genetic factors. Testing can sometimes provide a partial answer or rule out specific known causes, but it does not give a definite prediction in most cases.
