Maybe atticus does have some tendencies of autism (we’re all on the spectrum) I wonder if a lot of it is Julie just not pushing him enough, like the fussy eater thing, is she the type of parent who just gives in when he won’t eat something new, and surely her and Anna baby him because he’s a lot younger and Julie is clearly having no more kids, I do really wonder what her attitude towards his teacher is and how much his school have pushed him getting a formal diagnosis
