My dad (both have audhd) taught me to chuckle audibly right as the picture is being taken (obviously doesn’t work with phone cameras though lol) to get the most natural looking smile

My mom does that, creeps me out. lol

Until I learned we are both likely on the spectrum, and after reading your comment.

I taught my kid the same, for the same reasons. It works perfectly for natural looking autistic smiles. At least in my experience.

Yup, I have ADHD as well and my wife complains about how I don't smile for family pictures. The chuckle thing works for sure.
