I might be wrong.

Anyway, I have good imagination skills, I mean, normal people don't really imagine much do they? So why should spectrum people HAVE to if the can't?

It's all a bit confusing to me.
I'm not saying we have to imagine things, only that I find I'm not able to leave the reality I know, to enter a new one. Normal kids doesn't care that their toys doesn't have a greater function. I don't really know how normal peoples imagination works, but I have a feeling it's more than I have. I have one friend, who have a vivid imagination. She's more in the other end of the scale, which I also find unusual.

Now I'm confused as well.
