I know a guy with autism spectrum disorder and his physician told him that he shouldn't reproduce. There is a negative stigma with people with mental illnesses reproducing children. I suppose it's because of the mother not being able to take meds which can cause a lot of complications and giving the child the same mental illnesses. I personally wouldn't have kids because I have so many disorders, but I would like to adopt one day.
