Autism is now known to run in families but the spectrum of the effects maybe different between generations. There was a very interesting interview on radio two one lunch time a few weeks ago with the author Holly Smale on late diagnosis autism and how she had been through forty years of life feeling different but not knowing why until being diagnosed with autism and her mother being diagnosed shortly afterwards.Good friend of mine is autistic isn’t good with people has a very abrupt manner
I think a good many people in society are undiagnosed and are at the lower end of the autistic scale but they often have a abrupt attitude towards others and become exceptionally obsessed with certain aspects of life or other people similar to stalkers and sex offenders and just can’t stop the way they are or stop and leave others alone.
Often their IQ is above average and sometimes way beyond average but their ability to interact with others isn’t so great as often blinkered/ tunnel visioned that their ideas are the only ones that exist.
