    When my nephew was little, he was wild. Like had to have that backpack with a leash or else if you look away for a second he was 20 yards away wild. Then he started going to school and got kicked out of a couple schools for hitting other kids because they would change the rules of the game halfway through. We heard that they got him tested but never admitted to us that he had autism, even when we all pretty much knew. I don’t think they finally said it to any of us until he was like in high school and has been home schooled for the last 10 or so years.

    I don’t know if they’ve ever told him about it or not. Looking back it’s all clear, but back then he was just a hyper little shit who didn’t listen. Knowing would’ve made watching him a lot easier
