So if there was someone at school now, or a parent of a school-aged person who's listening to this, who has autism and feels like they just don't fit in, what would you wanna tell them?

Look, you're gonna have many people in your life who are gonna be saying so many different things at you.

So if anybody ever says, "No, you can't do that," or, "This isn't right and this is not how you behave," my advice from a person who doesn't like speaking up [laughs] is basically just to, I guess, spare- parents, speak up for your kids.

And as for the, being the kid in school, just be yourself.

Be who you are.

If a teacher doesn't like it- I mean, [sighs] it depends on, you know, what you do in class, but...

I don't know.

[laughs]
