I also did a bit of research into it, and I pretty much got the same result. Why do parents want to believe it's not a big deal?

Well my parents suffer from a similar delemia when it comes to me beng Autistic.
The thing is that they don't want to beleive that anything is wrong with their children, and that they are not in any way different from the norm. Parents generally want to beleive that anything that could be wrong is just us, their children, making excuses for our actions, as apposed to the truth of us trying to give a reason for them. Basically they see anything like that as a weakness.
