[quote=Anonymous]It is pretty clear to me that many children diagnosed with autism in their early years do not actually have autism...no wonder it 'goes away' later. Real autism is not curable. With lots of hard work autistic people (high functioning, not severely autistic btw.) can APPEAR as if they don't have autism. But for them that just means constantly working their behind off day in and day out to keep their symptoms in check. It's sad that this kind of 'research' doesn't only give false hope but also may lead to people saying to autistic people 'If only you had worked harder, you'd be fine now'...pretty horrible IMO.[/quote]
