I know this post is not just about autism but rather, it is about social interactions.
We all know that humans are social animals, socialism is in one the fabric of our formation so when someone lacks that part of their formation, it plays out in the way react to the world and to their environment.
Autistic or not, if we want to live as free individuals, we also have to learn to operate in the conditions we have.
It is impossible to have a perfect environment at all times. I'm life things can't always go your way, people won't always behave how you want them to, hence the need to learn adaptability and social interactions. We should be able to understand people and know their intentions just by being around or even reading the kind of energy they give off from afar.
And I think that life is not nearly as rich when we do not interact healthily with other people. Avoidance is a solution, but is it one that leads to a better quality of life?
