I am teacher - an 'outstanding' one by all accounts. High performing form the very beginning - i just 'get it'. The duality of performing, whilst running a secondary dialogue - i.e assessing what is going on/making decsions based on the room,/imdividuals responses whilst 'performing' - i.e teaching/delivering information to hold attention and impart a key message is just second nature.
Shocks or traumas - Fell out of a tree and landed on my head when I was about 10 ish. Was kept in over night because the doctors were concerned that whilst stitching my noggin back up under a local, I just stared at them and didn't flinch. They told Mum they were keeping me in becasue they were worried about brain damage - but releases me the next day.
Dad left when I was 14 - we had a bad relationship.
Tony Atwood talks about 'imitation' and how aspies imitate from very early on and are often so accomplished they become actors. Guess what I was for 15 years before a teacher :)
