[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 89430, member: 1550"] Janna, her son in my opinion isn't cured. And Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) has not been proven curable. Her son is only five years old. She has no idea what lies ahead for him. JMO, but I think proclaiming he is cured at such a young age is dangerous. My son seemed "cured" at five and only when he started obviously acting so much different from his peers around nine and ten could I stop denying that he hadn't "outgrown" the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) tendencies. And I think Jenny McCarthy will unfortunately see the same thing--there are years when our kids seem almost "typical." There are many people proclaiming cures for autism. I do think some espeically Aspies can get high enough functioning to "pass," but it's fatiguing for them and they know it's not the real them. I'm not saying this to be negative. I just get nervous when a famous name goes around proclaiming a cure for autism in a five year old boy. in my opinion she has a long road ahead of her. Even the look in her boy's eyes in my opinion is that Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) off-center look. I personally believe she wants this a lot and, because she is famous, people listen to her. But I wouldn't bet the farm on him being cured or that there is a cure. Everyone would be running for the hills if there was a real cure. JMO [/QUOTE]
