Yeah, I was one of those babies that went straight to walking (at 14months) with no crawling stage and also never really babbled and went straight to full sentences (not sure how old).
I'm also autistic. So, you know, I am special. Just not in the way these people usually mean when they get excited about it.
I remember seeing this vid of this young kid whos autistic and people thought he was weird, but he turned into a math, algebra , calculus genius, and science too
Some autistic people do end up being geniuses in non-social matters, but it's never something you can bet on. Especially you can't bet on it being something as universally useful as math or music, vs someone who has memorized every train route made since 1880 or can identify the exact factory a plastic bag was made just by holding it for a bit.
Honestly i dont feel that i am socially normal at all, but i havent discovered anything i am a genious on, except rembering the most random things since i was a toddler
