What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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.

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

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

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.

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A BABY (0–2 YEARS)

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

To a flat Earther, what's wrong with the idea that gravity is simply a force inherent to space which operates only in one dimension? Why do they go further and try to deny gravity rather than just saying it's different than physicists claim?

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

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 CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

The Roman Empire at the time of Christ kept meticulous records. Why then, is there no record of the trial of Jesus?

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

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

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

My boyfriend wants to break up over too many petty arguments. To me, they are molehills because I truly love him & don't really think twice about them. If he loved me would he work through it?

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

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

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

What is better, 4 more years of Trump with the media trying to hurt him, or 8 years of DeSantis with the media licking booty, or 4 to 8 years of RFK with the media hating on him all the time? (Biden is not an option, he can't win)

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

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

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

What are the best Jewish jokes?

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

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.

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.

Should Trump pardon Andrew Tate when he wins the 2024 election?

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

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

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