I often wonder if #ActuallyAutistic folk are more vulnerable to childhood trauma due to how they interpret punishment.
So if a parent shouts at a neurotypical kid, its probably very upsetting and scary. But for a lot of ND kids, you can probably multiply that by a factor of 10. And I wonder if that makes us more vulnerable to being traumatised than others?
Obviously, the solution here is gentle(r) parenting styles, but none the less. #autism
