Re: Aaaand it keeps going!
I actually get the articulate thing. Even when I was at my most 'developmentally delayed' or 'failing to achieve expected targets' (based on my verbal communication skills and reading level and also just relative to everyone else -- I went through a profound and obvious isolated/weird stage), no one went, "Oh, huh, I wonder what's going on at home." It's actually staggering how many teachers and school administrative professionals (e.g., guidance counselors, nurses) missed the very obvious abused child symptoms because I was articulate. Hug on the astral plane from someone else who's been there?
