I'm not okay with adults touching me for the most part. I'm much more flexible with kids though. I do have a limit with children though, where if they are sitting next to me/on me, I eventually have to push them away.
I hate HATE it when children touch me though. They usually kind of gross me out. But I don't push them away because I know they don't know any better and I don't want to confuse/upset them. I dunno why children bother me. I guess they just move fast and are unpredictable but at the same time, I can be the same way with my ADHD.

I don't know if it bothers me as much as when adults touch me though. I had an experience where I was at a concert and this guy touched me in between my shoulder blades and I had to leave. It was an open orchestra rehearsal and didn't pay anything to be there so it wasn't like I was walking away from anything extremely important to me.
