Mom: You were so mature as a child! Why are acting like such a child?!

Me: (in my brain) I don’t know mom, maybe you never taught how to adult?!

Apparently some autistic people are more mature in childhood than adulthood because they mimic what other adults do according to some research? I remember being independent as a kid. But now as an adult, I feel like I have no idea what I’m doing…

I wish my mom understood this. I’m not trying to be childish. I don’t even know how to be an adult in the first place…
