What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

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

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

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

What would TERFs do if there weren't such a thing as being transgender? Who would be their target?

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

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

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

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

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

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

I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.

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

SIGNS I HAD AS A CHILD (3–12 YEARS)

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

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

Is it socially acceptable for individuals to wear clothing typically associated with the opposite gender? What are some reasons for or against this practice?

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

I made too much eye contact, I just stared at people's eyes for very prolonged times often causing discomfort.

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