There are a small amount of children who lose their diagnosis. But these children still have issues, they just do not have enough impairing autistic traits for a diagnosis.

These children have not been assessed into their teens and adulthood so it is premature to say they are not autistic anymore. Increased pressures and expectations that could make them appear autistic again have not happened yet.

While the children assessed still show residual issues a more mature adult probably won’t, at least temporarily.

Some of these children were misdiagnosed, they were never autistic in the the first place. They were diagnosed at a very young age before the natural maturing took place.

Some people view any autistics “faking” any NT traits as sellouts. I am not one of these people. Learning skills NT’s have naturally can be useful. But it has to be done with the full understanding one is doing it to gain things, nothing more, nothing less.
