11. Autistic people know that everyone has thoughts.

Some scientists say that autistic people don’t understand other people.
They say we don’t know that other people have thoughts.
They say we don’t know that different people have different thoughts.

That is very silly.
Autistic people know that other people have thoughts.
Autistic people have said this for a long time.

In this book, we talk about what other people think a lot.
That shows that we know that other people have thoughts.
Maybe reading this book would help scientists understand how we think.
