What is missing from today's dialogue is the effect autism is having on families, our society and what the unknown factors are. The 300lb. gorilla in the room is that our children with autism today will soon become adults with autism.

More quotes by Jenny McCarthy
I know children regress after vaccination because it happened to my own son. Why aren't there any tests out there on the safety of how vaccines are administered in the real world, six at a time? Why have only two of the 36 shots our kids receive been looked at for their relationship to autism?
Jenny McCarthy
I wished to God the doctor had handed me a pamphlet that said, 'Hey, sorry about the autism, but here's a step-by-step list on what to do next.' But doctors don't do that. They say 'sorry' and move you along.
Jenny McCarthy
I guess now that I think back, I used to play priest and be a funny priest. I don't know, I grew up in such a Catholic family that I kind of liked to test the boundaries a little bit and I think I had fun watching my mom laugh.
Jenny McCarthy
I didn't have to work out before 35 but now I have to.
Jenny McCarthy
I'm not as hard on myself anymore. I'm comfortable exactly where I am, though it took me until I was 34 years old! I still have things I'm really insecure about, but I've changed by loving me - C-section scars, stretch marks, and all.
Jenny McCarthy
I wanted to be in Jim Carrey comedy movies before I met him. I wanted to be a comedian on Stage 19, yukking it up.
Jenny McCarthy
Without a doubt in my mind, I believe that vaccinations triggered Evan's autism.
Jenny McCarthy
Hope is the greatest thing for moms of autism. Hope is what gets us out of bed in the morning. I'm on a mission to tell parents that there is a way.
Jenny McCarthy
I can't even begin to tell you how many casting couches I was attacked on. Not just by casting people, but by stars.
Jenny McCarthy
When I first went public with my son Evan's story, I just planned to talk about the 'R' word - Recovery. But soon I was spending most my time talking about the 'V' word - vaccines.
Jenny McCarthy
So basically, I don't know what I'm talking about. But maybe I do.
Jenny McCarthy
If you ask 99.9 percent of parents who have children with autism if we'd rather have the measles versus autism, we'd sign up for the measles.
Jenny McCarthy
I'm free of stress and worries now because if I don't like something I'm doing, I just find the fun in it instead of being miserable. Let me have fun with the people I work with, let me have fun making money - when I grew up so poor, ya know?
Jenny McCarthy
Without intervention today, the cost of care for adults with autism will be significantly greater and the burden will no longer lie with the parents, but on our entire society.
Jenny McCarthy
Obviously, I'm not a trained actress, and right now I'll come out and say I'm glad I'm not.
Jenny McCarthy
I can't even begin to tell you how many casting couches I was attacked on. Not just by casting people, but by stars. And when I wouldn't give them my number, they'd say, Who the hell do you think you are? You will never make it in this town. I'll make sure of it.
Jenny McCarthy
I'm the comedic girl next door and a lot of fun.
Jenny McCarthy
I have my once-a-month nachos, but it's soy cheese and turkey chili on it, so it's somewhat safe. But it's still a big vice for me, because I have a big bowl of it.
Jenny McCarthy
Those outside of autism need to understand this is an epidemic and we need more government funding, insurance coverage and education reform.
Jenny McCarthy
I'm so scared girls look at my breast implants and think, 'To get boys, you need big boobs.' I tell them, 'Don't get it done. Those fears go away. You develop other insecurities, but breasts aren't one of them.' I want to get them half-size.
Jenny McCarthy
