I’m Not Difficult—You Just Don’t Have the Blueprint
Some people are loud when they’re scared.
Some people go quiet when they’re in pain.
Some people laugh when they’re overwhelmed.
Some people cry when they’re not even sure why.
None of those reactions are wrong.
None of them mean someone is broken.
But in support systems, classrooms, and workplaces, these behaviours are often misunderstood, punished—or dismissed as “difficult.”
Here’s the truth:
People aren’t difficult.
What’s difficult is trying to support someone without the blueprint.

Autism and Drowning
Autistic persons face specific dangers over and above the general population, which are easily preventable with education and awareness. Families with children who have disabilities identify swimming as their favourite activity; despite this, drowning accounts for 90% of deaths in ASD children under fourteen. Difficulty generalising learnt skills across different environments can result in an ASD child who can swim at the beach becoming a drowning victim in a dam. Further heightening this risk is a well-known attraction to water and a propensity to wander. Children with ASD wander at four times the rate of non-neurodivergent children. Also, nearly 50% of children with ASD attempt to escape from a safe environment. Despite this, only 50% of parents with autistic children report receiving advice about wandering by health professionals.
