Bought a book about autism in adults, which seems written with a scientific perspective. Hopefully it will counteract the enormous amount of stuff that's out there focusing on autistic children.

It's my theory that it takes especially communicative people to draw attention to something, and autistic people don't tend to be that, but their parents might be. So when these children grow up and leave the house, they are forgotten about, as if somehow adulthood cures autism or as an adult you learn to live with it. But it doesn't and you don't. You just live your life in obscurity.

I'd love to find a proper book explaining exactly how autistic people should live their life. Sounds weird, but since we don't know naturally and we like clear rules and explanations anyway, a book like that sounds obvious?
