When I was home for the summer after my first year of university, I was taking a distance course. I listened to music a lot while studying. Day before a test, dad was yelling at me for not studying enough. He refused to believe I had studied because he heard me playing music a lot. He couldn't comprehend I could have music on and be studying. To be fair, now that I'm older I have trouble concentrating on other things while music is on but back then I could have music on and study. I can't fathom thinking a person must be actively listening to music and doing nothing else. Also because of my autism, being yelled at unfairly the day before a test actually made it harder to concentrate on the test because I was focused on being unfairly yelled at. Also this was after I had been living away from home for a year and passed most of my university classes, so he should have known I knew what I was doing when it came to studying. And if he didn't think I could study with music playing, how the fuck did he think I had sufficient time to study in the dorms?
