Charlotte, thanks for sharing your experience!

Admittedly I only asked a couple of my friends who have autism for their opinions; I didn't reach out to the broader community to write this article. I agree, though, that the autistic community is so diverse that a one-size-fits-all approach wouldn't work!

And that's an interesting thought about autism and intelligence... I feel that although there are plenty of studies on this it's really hard to interpret this data.

Thanks for sharing this!
