Yeah, I feel like I kind of get where he's coming from there. It's sort of like maybe he could have seen an advanced copy. Fair. This is like, you know, maybe a heads up.

Yeah, can I help you edit your bulk declaration of situation? Yeah. It is a tricky thing. Like I think you just have to work out, like with any relationship, I guess, you have to just meet people where they're at. When two neurodivergent people communicate, it's fluid. When two neurotypical people talk to each other, it's fluid. It's just when... the two meet, it can be really, really awkward.

And I've experienced that often. But the thing is, I have learned the ways of the neurotypicals. I have studied these people. Um, you know, like I, I prepare for, for neurotypical engagement. I know I, I'm trained in the art of small talk because I know it's important.

Uh, the problem is, is the privilege of neurotypical people is they don't have to learn how to parallel play with, you know, what happened is you're pathologized. It's like, you're not communicating correctly. Therefore you are less than you are not doing this right. You are weird, you know? Back in the day, they'd burn you at the stake, you know, like totally think I'm a witch.

Like I think that's what witches were, just neurodivergent women.

I think a really great place to start is not to take things personally and just move past it to the next thing. It's really difficult, I think, with the parent-child relationship because, you know, children don't have the language yet. They're learning the language in order to, you know, then communicate things.

uh, what, what issues are, what the problem are, you know, what might look like as, you know, a tantrum is probably a sensory overload and it looks like a small problem. Um, so, you know, a parent might go, well, you know, I, I'm taking you, I'm taking you seriously, but really that, you know, come on, this is, you know, like you don't like that cup, come on, clam down.

Um, but what's happening is perhaps there's something about the sensory part of this process that seems insignificant to a neurotypical but is, you know, a war zone for someone on the spectrum. There's an expected, you know, bond that's supposed to happen with parents and children that neurodivergent children are always going to disappoint.
