The controversy has erupted on autism e-mail lists, where "curebie" is used as a derogatory term for parents who are portrayed as "slaves to conformity, so anxious for their children to appear normal that they cannot respect their way of communicating".<ref name="Harmon"/> These parents respond that this attitude shows "a typical autistic lack of empathy by suggesting that they should not try to help their children". Lenny Schafer said that the autism-like lack of [[empathy]] of anti-cure activists prevent them from seeing what is in the hearts of pro-cure advocates.<ref>Schafer, Lenny.

자폐 관련 이메일리스트에는 '적합성의 노예로, 자기 아들딸이 정상처럼 보였으면 하며 염려함으로 그들의 소통 방식을 존중하지 못하는 사람들"로 그려진 부모들을 경멸조로 '치료쟁이'(curebie)라고 불러 논쟁이 일어나기도 했다<ref name="Harmon"/>. 논쟁에서 부모들은 이러한 태도가 '부모들이 자신의 자녀들을 돕지 말아야 한다고 주장함으로서 자폐인의 전형적인 공감 부족"을 보여준다고 대응했다. 레니 샤퍼(Lenny Schafer)는 자폐 같은 반치료 행동가들의 공감 부족이 치료에 찬성하는 옹호자들의 마음 속에 무엇이 있는지 보지 못하게 한다고 말했다.<ref>Schafer, Lenny.

=== 자폐는 장애가 아니다 ===
현재 자폐는 {{출처|정신의학자들에 의해}} 국제적인 질병편람인 [[DSM]]과 [[ICD]]의 최신판 모두에서 장애로 규정돼 있으며, 이에 따라 자폐 당사자들을 사회가 돌볼 책무가 있다는 관점이 수반되는데, 이는 신경다양성 지지자들이 '기능의 변형'(variation in functioning)으로 정의하는것과 대치된다.   
Autism is classified by psychologists as a disorder<!--for instance, in DSM and ICD-->, rather than the variation in functioning preferred by supporters of neurodiversity, with an attendant focus on the burden placed on society in caring for autistic individuals.
