Is it common for autistic people to have learning disability?

Staci asked:


I know there are some autistic people out there that don’t have difficulty in learning. I have moderate autism and a learning disability, so I just want to know how common it is for autistic people to have learning disability.

Is there any link between autism and learning disability?

If you have autism, do you have a learning disability and how fast can you learn? If your children has autism, do they have a learning disability and how well can they learn?
