My brother and cousin are both afflicted with autism, so I've grown up very close to the subject. I know a lot of what you've mentioned -- my cousin's was diagnosed earlier on and he has had a lot of different therapies, including a camp for those with autism every year since he was 2, and he is much more high-functioning than my brother, but still not approaching normal. As for managing autism with diet, that also can improve symptoms -- we removed gluten from my brother's diet for about two years and there was improvement, but again, he didn't come close to approaching normal. I think it is wrong to imply there are "cures" for autism, because it only makes the family members of those with autism feel like failures.
