Found out my niece might also be autistic. Shes too young to actually know yet. But thinking about it, I dont want her to grow up feeling the way I did growing up. Feeling different, hating myself for not understanding facial expressions, or sarcasm

Praising and encouraging her and her friends to understand autism is extremely important from one formerly autistic little girl to another!! There will always be ways in which she will have to adapt, a positive mindset truly makes all of the difference in the same way we try to raise neurotypical children with the foundation to be confident and secure in their individuality.
