In
Six Feet Under, episode 5 season 2, the family was talking about a lady that had nobody in her life. They stated how awful that was and concluded that she might have been autistic thus the reason for not having anyone in her life. Then Claire, a teenager in the series, said:
"I don't see why this person has to be mentally ill... just because she had a life that doesn't conform to a familiar image in our heads. Maybe she was living the life she wanted. A life without the hassle of other people."
Don't you agree with her? Don't you think that we sometimes judge the person in front of us just because he/she is different and does not conform to the image we have in our head? It just made me pause and think...
