I don’t know what type of “people” that would be. Maybe someone who is not aware of how hard life is for a aspie.

As a parent of an autistic child, it’s not a “gift” by any means that your child is amazingly smart but has difficulty with connection to people. A trait that is needed in all aspect of life. It’s heart breaking and gut wrenching at every turn of life. I can’t speak for other parents, but for me I would give anything to have that normalcy in my child’s life rather than a “gifted child”.

I’ve heard, kids with AS are just not interested in making friends and also that they can get along well with adults but not with kids of their own age.
