To my thinking, I was naughty - in the top quintile. However, it doesn't seem like any of the gals were naughty. Boys are naughtier than girls, or at least prone to the kind of naughtiness that gets noticed and punished. In contrast to what has been stated about never questioning the rules, it honestly never occured to me that rules weren't arbitrary ways for adults to tell children what makes them mad. I never believed that rules were for my own good, but this is an unrelated problem with authority.

As a result, I drew a contrast between breaking a rule and getting caught. It seems like Asperger's Syndrome played a role, but it wasn't the sole cause of misbehavior. I also consciously chose to do things I knew where wrong if I couldn't think of a likely scenario for getting caught. This resulted in much naughtiness as a child. I still have a problem with authority, but I have learned to keep my mouth shut unless I'm pushed - did I mention that I was hot tempered?

As a child, there had been an incidence of when I was 2 or 3yrs old and almost placed the family cat in the washing machine.Ah, but that never did happen though as, my mom caught me before I did such... Now mind you, I'm not like that these days, as my cat Archie has been a friend to me per se for 11yrs now so, I've found that sometimes animals tend to have a greater respect for people sometimes.Anyways, enough of the dramatics and will close with saying.. all humans make mistakes..

I was a bad child... Apparently the day they brought my sister home they left the door open so I pushed her car seat outside and shut the door, I stole her bottles and soothers, I called her 'evil' till I was three, we both were the cause of most of my little brother's head injuries, I used to accidentally make other children cry because of my brutal honesty, I'd hit my mother when she tried to hold me from the first time until I was four (when she gave up bothering with me), I'd hit my sibbies when I got agitated, I bit other kids when they upset me, there's lots more.
