Renate's Childcare Academy

Pro tip: If an autistic person in your life is interrupting you frequently, it's not because they're rude.

What's happening is that they are trying to keep up with the conversation. If you mention something they want to remember, and you keep going, they are either going to:

A. Focus on that thing they need to tell you and not be able to hear the rest, or

B. Forget the really cool thing they have to add to the conversation because you've already maxed out the amount of information they can process.

Autistic people aren't being rude. They're trying to keep up. They're showing interest.

Otherwise, they may still be trying to rewind your conversation and play it back to absorb it all hours after you're already gone.

Teachers not only teach have many other roles each day.

What a great idea!
