Children who start off non-verbal can end up talking, just at a later age (e.g. age 7).
Watch this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEhc1o8oKeI%20(communication is about a lot more than talking) and research Carly Fleischmann (the subject of the video).
Autistic children do learn more control over their behaviour as they get older.
