If your father is autistic, and your husband and brother are definitely neurodivergent, and you have one autistic daughter and two grandkids with ADHD and another daughter who probably has ADHD, and that's all your family, then guess what?

"By your reasoning, everybody is!"

No, just your family and also, incidentally, all your friends. Birds of a feather flock together, as they say, and if all your friends are not-NT, then you probably aren't the odd one out.
