A person doesn't become autistic and being quiet doesn't make someone autistic - a person is born autistic.
Autistic people are normal - so yes, if both parents are autistic they may have an autistic child or a neurotypical child, either way that child is normal.
Firstly, it's offensive for you to imply that autistic people are abnormal - autistic people are different to neurotypical people, not less than. A person is born autistic, it is not something that happens to 'normal' people or something that you turn into, you are always autistic.
A person cannot become Autistic, a person is born Autistic. Not speaking does not mean that a person has become Autistic, there are many reasons why a neurotypical person may stop speaking.

No, it is not okay for a teacher to grab an autistic child by the wrist. For that matter it is not okay for a teacher to grab the wrist of any child, this would count as assault.
