    Autistic child with the repetitive "I don't know" answer

    I used to be the queen of answering with 'I don't know'. And in my experience, it might not be anything that you are doing wrong.

    Hellos

    Hellos

    Hi, I figured out that I was an Aspie yesterday, after watching a youtube playthrough of the game To The Moon. I found myself relating to one of the characters, and later discovered that her condition was Aspergers. I went through symptom lists, particularly the ones on Rudy Simone's website...
