What are the signs of mild autism in a child?

I had problems to follow instructions and to follow rules, I always got in trouble for this one.

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

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

How do you handle family members who ask for handouts?

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 didn't know why people felt happy or sad in determined situations.

I was over or under sensitive to most sensory input causing sensory seeking oravoiding reactions.

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

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 limited interest in another children, I normally played just with my brother but no other children. I occasionally played with my cousins.

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

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