✅ Girls Masking: Girls camouflage symptoms better, leading to underdiagnosis.
✅ Autistic Burnout: Undiagnosed autistic teens face severe burnout and breakdowns.
✅ Universal Accommodations: Classroom accommodations should universally benefit all students.
✅ Diagnosis Importance: Diagnosis builds self-awareness for different brain functioning.
✅ Confidentiality Matters: Teenagers need clear confidentiality boundaries from teachers.
