Hi! Assuming that neurodivergent people can't be socially intelligent is kind of offensive, neurodivergence is a wide spectrum and it manifests differently for everyone.

Also, just because someone seems good at something doesn't mean it's not a massive effort for them, read up about masking :)

You made the comment that society hates neurodivergent people. It was you they implied that they can't fit in, not me. I just pointed out that my kid is gifted (according to you, neurodivergent) and that he is also socially intelligent and fits in quite well.
