Autism
Tat's a tough question. There are different degrees of "autism" and "autistic like behaviors". In general the deffinition of autism is a "pervasive developmental disorder" which means it affecta all aspects of life and that it is an interuption in the natural developmental process. The answer is "No" autism is not curable by definition but "yes" many autistic people can learn adaptive behaviors to help them function better in certain situations. If someone was "cured", then I would question whether the diagnosis was acurate or not.
Best wishes,
