What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

These are my resumed signs of autism when I was a child. Most of them got overlooked because the only thing about autism my parents and grandparents knew was about very severe cases of autism. Another factor is that I was born female (I'm trans) and that I masked from a young age.

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

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

What is one fantasy you have never told anyone about but really want to do?

I learned many skills like reading and writing earlier than other children.

I used to hit my siblings very often, that was my way of playing with them.

I had trouble sharing objects and food, normally someone had to tell me to give them something. I sometimes didn't want people to have my objects to the point of meltdowns.

Im a 14 year old girl who doesnt want to wear a hijab but my parents force me to wear one. It makes me dislike it more. Im not ready for one no matter what people say and they get really mad at me. I have bad grades and no motivation. What do I do?

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

I was a calm baby, I didn't cry that much and I didn't need another person's entertainment.

I watched some films over and over again specially my favourite scenes.

Anything could make me laugh to the point of annoying other people.

What shouldn't you Google?

My reaction with other children apart from my close family approached me was mostly walking away or hitting them.

I didn't pretend play like the other children. I didn't know how to do that specially with other children.

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

I had a fantasy world, I was always there and that was the best place to be, when I was anxious I went there and zone out.

I woke up and threw all my toys away from my crib and start crying.

I didn't have a social smile and I sometimes had exagerated facial expresions or just expressionless.

I was very obsessed with angry birds, I played angry birds, I had ab toys, I watched ab in TV and I was so obsessed with that.
