Mastering One Social Expectation Doesn't Mean Your Autistic Loved One Will Suddenly Know Them All
There's a concerning misconception around how autistic people learn neurotypical social skills (and when I say 'neurotypical social skills', I mean just that, as they differ from natural autistic ways of socializing) that I want to address.
