    Researchers at the UC Davis Mind Institute show stunning progress with Matthew Williams, a two-year-old boy who, unlike his twin sister, was recognized as being at risk for autism. Using the Early Start Denver Model, therapists now have Matthew responding to his name, interacting with his family and playing at the same level as his sister, Morgan. While there are still many questions about autism, this intervention has the families of some participants asking, "could there eventually be a cure?"

    I'm 13 and I have Asperger's syndrome. Unfortunately, mine was hard to diagnose because I also have Tourette's syndrome, GID, Severe Anxiety and OCD, and Vasovagal Syncopé, luckily all diagnosed now. Because of the combination of all of my symptoms, unpicking it was hard. I am beginning to also struggle with depression, because they all just diagnose me, say there is no treatment or a cure for any of my conditions except GID, and tell me to move on.

    I hope there is a centre like this everywhere in the world. No family should feel like they don't have a support system. I hope these children grow up and have amazing lives and achieve wonderful things.

    5:30 "If a child no longer meets behavioral criteria for autism they don't have autism." How ignorant! I agree that a lot of these methods help but this child still has autism. I don't meet the behavioral criteria for autism because, especially being a female with it, I learned how to hide my autism from a very young age. Autism is not "behaviors" it's how my brain is wired, it is apart of who I am. I'll always have it, I always want to have it! Help your kids but don't do it so that they'll be normal for you or anyone else.

      Right, it's literally a NEURODEVELOPMENTAL disorder. My brain is literally, physically, different. Yes that effects behavior, and sure with training behaviors can change. But that doesn't change the fact that my brain will forever be different than the neurotypical brain, and that because of that I will always perceive the world around me in a different way than most people do.

      These kind of comments are sooo annoying. Some high functioning autistic adults get stupidly caught up on simple things. Keep your autism, be as autistic as you want and function yourself around. Make sure you are able to take care of your basic needs, make sure you are able to respond to basic social inquiries and keep your autistic brain. No one is trying to take it away from you. As a parent of an autistic child, I’m simply providing tools to my child to function and to meet his basic needs in this world. My autistic child gets over stimulated so I have to give him a proper environment, he wants to talk but he can’t so I have to provide tools for him to speak. He has challenges on meeting his basic needs so I have to give him tools for it. Stupid!!!! We are not trying to take their autistic brain away. We parents simply want a human dignified quality of life. A thank you for all the work these people do would be enough. Take your judgment somewhere else.

      No, it doesn't always make a huge difference. You can love your child to death and get all the therapies, and they still may not improve. Of course, kudos to these parents for being able to get their child into the study.

    yeah I've been asking myself the same thing and it's possible, but if you look at the results of all 48 children that were part of the ESDM program, 7 of them had an improved diagnosis, only 1 did in the community program. This has to mean that there is something to it, though, maybe I'm missing something.

    Parents and grandparents of children on the autism spectrum are desperate for treatment. In the south the waiting period to even get a test at the autism center in Atlanta is long and even longer to get the written evaluation. If this handicap is so pervasive why aren't we able to get help for our children in the critical developmental stages before school age. We pare d's and caregivers are in anguish over the inability to find aba therapists in our rural area.

    There has been some ongoing research by one scientist in America regarding the use of antibiotics for babies less than 3 months and causation. A related issue is that some autistic symptoms have been shown to improve with the use of probiotics (or is it prebiotics - I can never remember which is which), but not all children. I saw it on a documentary but cannot remember the name of the scientist/doctor doing the study. The problem with any type of research on such a subject, be it vaccines or antibiotics, is that you can't use proper scientific methodology to conduct a study, taking out all variables, using a 'blind' group etc, as it would be very unethical, so you will never get a definitive 'cause'.

    There is an extremely bold line between autistic and having diabetes. Diabetes is caused when your body puts in too much or too little insulin to maintain your blood sugar. Autism is (i have really no idea how to explain it) something that sort of makes your brain think differently than "Normal people". With autism you can teach people how to know when somebody is using sarcasm or when it's an appropriate time to say this or that. You cant teach your body how much insulin you need to live.

      C Pando you obviously are blind to the fact that autism is not an illness it's a mental disorder take it from someone who actually has it and am dam proud to say I have autism I will not be bloody cured I have got two deplomas passed my GCSEs in mainstream school. You should talk to real autistic people before making the assumption that we should be ' cured' with your bullshit treatments
