[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry OP. I have a quirky ASD kid and I also teach kids with ASD. I know exactly the qualities you talk about and I do work with all the young people I love on recognizing boundaries on these things to avoid getting to where you did. It is tough because you don’t want to kill their spirits or their interests but you also know they can’t read the cues people give when they’re tired of hearing it or need a break. If it makes you feel better, I think ASD is such much better known now than when you were growing up and much less stigmatized that those who are on the spectrum are more understood and better served now. But thank you for the reminder to all to be mindful of this and that being clear is kind with everyone - we all have to help each other grow as people. [/quote]
