I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:
I woke up and threw all my toys away from my crib and start crying.
I was very obsessed with angry birds, I played angry birds, I had ab toys, I watched ab in TV and I was so obsessed with that.
It was very difficult for me to get social cues so I had inappropriate responses many times.
I had limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.
These are my resumed signs of autism when I was a child. Most of them got overlooked because the only thing about autism my parents and grandparents knew was about very severe cases of autism. Another factor is that I was born female (I'm trans) and that I masked from a young age.
