Image: 3 Panels.
1st panel: Little kid with teary eyes looking up at adult saying, “So all those behaviors I was punished for as a kid were just autistic traits?”
2nd: Adult looking down at kid with a compassionate expression, saying, “Yeah, and those traits don’t make you a bad person.”
3rd: Adult is lovingly hugging the kid, while kid seems to be taking a moment to process.
They don’t make you a ‘bad’ person as in, an immoral or evil person.
But they do make you a bad person as in, society dislikes you. There’s no harm in telling the truth.
