So here's my question... if they think it causes autism why don't they tell everyone not to take it? If it's that dangerous, why can adults take it and not get autism?

Drinking alcohol doesn't give adults birth defects either, but drinking alcohol while pregnant causes birth defects in the child 🤯

But they are trying to say that taking Tylenol is the cause...

I get what you're saying, but it's more like letting babies drink alcohol... you know? Because it's harmful no matter what age you drink, it's going to lead to problems

I'm just questioning the logic behind it...

There isn't any logic behind it.

Alcohol can't cause birth defects in adults because they're already born, but it can and does damage the adult brain and other organs.
