What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

I was under sensitive to bowel and bladder feelings but other Interoceptive feelings felt just too much.

I loved to stay alone in my room drawing or playing with my legos, I could do that for hours.

I wasn't unable to get non verbal communication and non literal communication too.

What have you learned from your parents' mistakes?

I was over or under sensitive to most sensory input causing sensory seeking oravoiding reactions.

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.

Why are there so many illegal Haitians in Ohio? They can't walk here. Democrats flew them here to cause chaos and crime in Ohio.

I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

How do I get my body in shape?

I didn't know why people felt happy or sad in determined situations.

I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:

I used to bite my fingers and hands to self regulate. I sucked my thumb sometimes too.

Who is the dumbest law enforcement officer you have ever encountered?

I didn't have a social smile and I sometimes had exagerated facial expresions or just expressionless.

It was very difficult for me to get social cues so I had inappropriate responses many times.

I had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.

Is The Last of Us Part 2 really as woke as people say it is?

I always had a justice sense, if there was no equality or justice I would get very upset about that.

I copied people from TV shows or films, their way of walk, talk and personality.

I also didn't group play, I was physically close to those children but I was parallel playing most of the time.

Why would calling me an incel help anything? How does that solve anything? Why can’t you actually be helpful and offer productive honest advice?

These are my resumed signs of autism when I was a child. Most of them got overlooked because the only thing about autism my parents and grandparents knew was about very severe cases of autism. Another factor is that I was born female (I'm trans) and that I masked from a young age.

I had a fantasy world, I was always there and that was the best place to be, when I was anxious I went there and zone out.

I had trouble to be fed. I ate slower and it was difficult for me to stop drinking from the bottle or breast. I also had trouble eating solid food.

Why is India lagging behind China in economic development when India is a democracy while China isn’t?

I had trouble sharing objects and food, normally someone had to tell me to give them something. I sometimes didn't want people to have my objects to the point of meltdowns.

I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.

I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.

What is the impact of being stereotyped as poor on an individual's life? How does it make them feel?

I woke up and threw all my toys away from my crib and start crying.

I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.

Anything could make me laugh to the point of annoying other people.

Why is Roblox so laggy it’s unplayable? My computer is fine and the internet is great.

I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

I was very obsessed with angry birds, I played angry birds, I had ab toys, I watched ab in TV and I was so obsessed with that.

I had limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.

Why can't my adopted sister accept she is not part of my family because she isn't related? Why can't she stop calling my parents mum and dad?

I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with them.

I loved to run from one side to another side and jump a lot, I always did it everyday.

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.
