I don't think she's that good, but she's obviously on the spectrum.

When you say she's obviously on the spectrum, do you mean how she holds herself stiffly and darts her eyes around occasionally?

Really, that surprises me. She seems like such a player. Are you sure you don't mean Darryl Hannah?

I watched a few other videos of hers, and I don't think that first one does her justice. she has an amazing voice.

She hasn't got much swagger...I'm kidding. She's pretty good for a seven year old. Looks HFA what with the lack of facial features.

Guess she's lucky she's so young she doesn't catch on that the telecaster refers to her as "suffering"......

I would be pissed or at least correct him.

I've read in another thread here on WP that she's been diagnosed as PDDNOS.
