It was very difficult for me to get social cues so I had inappropriate responses many times.

I will answer this question showing my signs of autism I had as a child:

I interacted with older or younger children and if I didn't have that chance I talked to some teachers.

I had trouble answering questions about topics that didn't interest me or I just didn't answer.
