One theory I like is: Gut-Brain connection. Gut composition signals to brain.

If a child took antibiotics the gut loses its balances, this has to be rebuild with the right food.

If this dysbalance stays long enough it can affect the development of the brain. I’m not saying it’s damage mkay.

What supports this hypothesis is that gut-brain mechanism is insanely underexplored.

That isn't support for a hypothesis at all.

That's like saying the ocean warming is because of underwater volcanoes not climate change, and it's supported by the fact we haven't explored most of the ocean.
