Social status seeking is not an autistic ideal...

one minor correction here is that the prefrontal cortex in young people is still undeveloped so there is less executive control over the limbic system compared to older adults.
That is what I said...
My understanding is that the entire brain is underdeveloped...
It was implicit that that referred to the neocortex also...
