  There isn’t a cure for autism at the moment but we can do something called “Cognitive Behavioural Therapy” to get autistic people used to certain situations that they are unsure of or don’t fully understand.
  
  There are people however that think that autism shouldn’t be cured but celebrated because those who have it are different but special.
