Autism is a spectrum, and while many people have a mental image of what autism looks like, reality is often far more nuanced.

One of the most complex aspects of autism is "masking"—the practice of concealing autistic traits to blend in with neurotypical peers.

Divorce was illegal until 1970, and family roles were typically patriarchal—think the classic image of a big Italian family where "mamma" ruled the kitchen while "papa" made the decisions.
