I like to think for now, that as a child she struggled to make friendships, usually playing by herself. She'd come off as weird and "offputting" and be labeled as such by the other kids. Not necceserily bullied, in fact she enjoyed her own company? Not feeling the need to make many friendships, not yet, although it still stung a little. (I actually headcanon her as autistic. Look at who her father is. But also some tales... it's really obvious). Small Ali would mostly maintain good grades, but not to a "gifted" degree where she'd be overly noticed by the teachers. She was just. There.

Okay, now teenager Alison. Around her preteen years Alison would probably start learning to make friends and with that, getting into her "rebel" era. She'd start getting more rebelious and it would peak sometime after she was old enough to realise that her dad is not actually coming back.

She would start skipping classes, smoke and sneak out with her friends or to see a boy or a girl (bisexual Alison I am a fan). Her relationship with Leanne would definitely be at its lowest at that moment with constant fights and lack of trust.

Anyway, that "rebelious era" would peak around 13-16. She'd probably get a grip a bit after that lol
