I'm an NT child surrounded by 2 AS parents and 4 AS siblings. I promise you that I had a traumatic childhood and my family thinks that is simply ridiculous. They say "of course they love me" and point to that I never wanted for food or shelter. oh, they also refused to ignore my medical needs and told doctors they were wrong about my allergies. I suffered with allergies until I was 25 y/o because my AS parents refused to believe things contrary to their beliefs. They also dismiss my mother writing me a letter where she disowned me due to my close relationship and thus bad influence on my youngest siblings (jealousy). Everything that ever upset me they say was my fault. I now know that it's okay to have feelings, okay to express feelings, and that I am reading people and situations right/better/differently than my family.
