    I just had a realization. In early childhood children with autism are usually more expressive, but frequently get told behavior, conversation topics and mannerisms are bad, weird or wrong.

    In adulthood the stereotype for autism is being uptight, anxious and reserved people who only open up when it is about a major interest.

    Well is this even an autism problem or the result of years of being told everything we say and do is wrong? Of course people would be introverted and anxious.
