For a lot of children and adults with autism, the autism is not at all obvious to anyone else. Is your son obviously autistic or does he have other, more obvious, difficulties?
For 56 years I lived in complete ignorance of the fact that I am autistic, it wasn't obvious to me or anyone else that I have this problem. My autism caused me to have a series of disagreements and disputes with work but nobody suggested that autism might be the root cause.
Also a lot of autistic people don't enjoy going out and meeting other people, it can be exhausting and fundamentally unpleasant to them. Their parents may very well not force them to go out as it can become exhausting and unpleasant for them as well.
