Thank you for sharing a piece of your life with us. No one needs to know where Abby goes to school/program each day to support and love your family. Your safety and privacy is important. Loved Abby's first day school dress!! 🥰
When I was in college, I worked at a summer camp for kiddos ages 12-16 that had Autism. I had so much respect their parent's ability to juggle everything no matter how difficult. It was amazing. In my opinion, the haters are jealous. All they see is this super nice family that appears joyful; something they don't have. But they have no idea about how much effort (mental & physical) it takes to create that harmony. It is not easy, and that is why your channel is inspiring. Yes, the channel is fathering autism (the parenting tips & autism awareness are equally awesome), but it is the dynamic and joy of your whole family that makes the channel successful. Keep up the great work.
my brother went to a vocational program and it changed his life drastically for the better! he learned responsibility, accountability, time management, and how to work! my brother also has autism❤
Just fyi you can add a “home” button to the screen on the newer iPads too. Under accessibility, turn on assistive touch and you can customize it for just the one button and it works exactly the same as the home button.
It happens, you check everything is all packed ready to go home, then sometimes realise afte getting home you left something behind, at least you all remember last seeing in your cabin. The iPad decided it wanted a few more cruise days lol. So great to hear Abbie was excited to start her new school/vocational programme. Totally understand keeping this private, utterly disgusting behaviours from the haters harassing previous places Abbie was attending. Great to hear the iPad was found and will be sent to you. Blessings.
That’s just how it is for us all, I don’t even give my phone number to anyone unless it’s family or professional. privacy is peace and peace is mandatory !!!
Abbie's iPad just wasn't ready to finish the cruise and decided to stowaway for another one! 😂. So glad you found it. I can imagine the room steward knocking on the door and asking "Can I look under the bed for a stowaway iPad."
abby looks beautiful such a lovely dress and cute shoes that stinks i always enjoyed abby’s school day why some have nothing better to do then sit and hate is shameful we need more kindness in the world
Scilla, my daughter in law spent 11 days in ICU and had a lobectomy due to letting an abscessed tooth go. The infection went to the space around her lung. Prayers for you and getting this done!!
I feel your pain Priscilla. I had my wisdom tooth removed on Friday, no fun but had to be done. It’ll be alright though ❤️ Sorry about the petty individuals. Some people just don’t have a life so they ruin other people’s. Keep being awesome ❤️
If you want to donate it to someone I'm certain there's a child out there that could really use it for a communication device. I appreciate it so much but there are plenty of others in need.
Since Asa bought one and Abbie is getting the old iPad back, you may want to donate your old ipad to a local assistive technology organization. They will format the iPad for a person that needs it, but may not be able to afford one.
It’s such a shame that there are haters here on TH-cam who don’t respect what others upload for others to enjoy. No one in my family has autism nor have I been around an autism person. There is a family down the street from me who has an autistic child and now having an understanding. This is great that you educate us with autism and what an autistic person may or may not go through. As mentioned before, I binged watching Fathering Autism from the start watching Abbie and getting the education needed for autistic people. Asa, thank you so much for all you do and the many hours putting up the vlogs.
Love Abbies dress! You didn't fail. Things happen. Hope you guys can get it back. I don't get why people have to be petty about things. It's ok not to agree with things you do or don't do. A local is not bad. I had one when I had to have surgery for trigger finger. I was stressed out and they gave me something to calm me down
I really hate when people talk about people with disabilities in the comments,me and abbie have feelings just like y'all,im a disability person myself id y'all don't like it y'all can unsubscribe then,they not forcing y'all to watch them,abbie have a great school year and love you,hope y'all are having a wonderful saturday and stay safe out there❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗
Dear haters ( not the person whose name I’m responding too )If you want to watch and stay and learn , ask questions etc and support this family and have their support great..do so…but if all you want is to hurt and belittle and bully then please find somewhere else or better yet a better way of positive use of your time and talents .Growth is important for us all and nasty comments only tear down .
Perio Surgery is easy peasy!! I was a CDA, assistant for perio surgery!! You will be fine I promise. Bruising should be minimal and the swelling will not be as bad as on the boat!
I'm so happy your getting that tooth fixed. I pushed mine out to the point I had to have the tooth and the bone around it removed. It was so so painful.
And I’m at vocational program too I have mild intellectual disability and possible autism I hope she does great at the vocational program I hope you guys get better with this situation❤
Cilla just wants to make it to the polls 😂 ❤ I'm sure she will 😊 Abbie, remembering where her lunch box goes she was so excited and then blue everywhere 😂😂 she cracks me up 😂. We had a Jeep show today right by us you would have loved it 100's of jeeps even a green beetle juice one 😂😂 Poor Isaiah fixing his jeep ❤ I thought about y'all when I drove past the jeep show 😊❤
Just an idea maybe look into purchasing a strap for the iPad so she could wear it crossbody and have her hands free but it will stay with her as she goes about her day?
So I had that surgery on both sides. The infection was so bad that it ate away at my sinus cavity. I had a very large hole in my sinus wall, which they had to repair. They had to replace my bone with cadaver bone. I had them put me out for it. Trust me you will be fine.
I started watching your vlog years ago my grandson is 9 yys i want to say thats when i started but not sure but not long after i am very sick now all most bed ritten with copd i look forward to your vlog everyday i never miss a one i hope they dont end but if they do i will completely understand ❤
That's insane to me thar anyone would contact Ab's school or Isaiah.🤦♀️ I'm so glad Ab's ipad was found and they are sending it back! That's great thar she was so excited for her first day! So was my daughter! Hopefully it continues! Sandy and Mav look soon cute!🥰🥰 Have a great Saturday everyone!!💚💚
Hey? Do we (or can we)get to see Priscilla at the dentist again?? Still my favorite video and reaction of Priscillas is the time she got her tooth pulled and was upset that they threw her tooth away!! Oh watched that so many times!!!
I know my iPhone has a feature where you can tap the back of the screen. Maybe you could set that up on the newer iPad where Abby can tap the back of the screen to go home if there’s no home button that might be a way that it can be accommodated to meet her needs. That way, you don’t have to swipe. They’ve made that for people with physical issues. I hope this helps. Also, you could look into getting her a bigger iPad like the iPad nine which is the one that I currently use. That has a home button on it.
The reason I was suggesting being able to tap the back of the screen by setting it for that is because I had to do that with my phone, which is swipe only. Being blind and autistic it’s hard for me to swipe to go home. I could imagine how hard it is for Abby. Really hard.
You are totally right. My husband has a tumor in the left chamber of his heart and a leaky valve that needs to be fixed or replaced and the surgeon won't do the surgery until he gets his dental work done. We were dropped from medical assistance in last October because we are on disability social security and they gave us a $5] raise and now we make too much so we don't qualify for dental with regular Medicare insurance and can't afford extra insurance coverage. We were told it will run $50,000 to do the work which we don't have so the surgeon said that when he has a heart attack they will rush him into emergency surgery if he makes it to the hospital. He was septic from spinal surgery and was if the hospital for 6 weeks in January and February 2024 and we have $20,000 in bills that are not covered by insurance and we have tried and applied for every assistance program to try and get help and don't qualify. Something needs to change with medical and definitely dental insurance coverage because only the rich can afford dental procedures.
Asa, go easy on yourself. We're all just mear mortals. With everything' you an Cilla do and you do it well. It's a shame how people can be so vindictive, Why? You guys do a great job. These people need to worry about their own. You guys stay safe.
So you think you could introduce her to a new version slowly so she can learn how to use something different. Especially since a lot of the old stuff will become obsolete.
Eventually she would have to learn but currently there are plenty of refurbished iPads available. I can buy 3 iPad Mini 4s for the same price as the Mini 6 so it just doesn't make sense. Apple is good about supporting their devices for several generations.
I wonder if there is a feature or application that can be implemented that can set an notification alarm off on your phones if Abbie or you "her parents" gets too far away from her iPad device, that you could use when your family is out and away from home? Maybe a sharing feature between the iPad and the parent's phones, then the iPad sends a notification to her parents that her iPad is being left behind and the proximity of where it should be located.
Asa, have you ever tried Omi military brand cases? They are thicker then Otterbox! Priscilla, if it swells back up you got to go back on antiobiotic, so that delays your surgery more!
Stay away haters. U ruin it for the rest of of us normal people. Wow people called Isaiah’s school and Abbie’s school.i would never do anything like that
Cilla, I so relate. I'm deadly afraid of the dentist! Over the last few years i was a primary caregiver for my terminally ill mom, and kind of let a lot of my needs go untended. I shouldn't have. Now i get to travel 5 hours away to an oral surgeon so that i can have all my teeth pulled and jaw realigned! I'm terrified!
I have maxillary buccal exostosis and mandibular tori - extra ridges of bone growing on my gums. Grrr!! They removed it once, in 2009. Now it's grown back. The big, big ridges bother me. But the itsy bitsy, tiny, pointy, sharp ones hurt!!! Very little. Very sharp!! Makes it hard to brush ur teeth, eat food, and talk clearly. Already have a ""speech defect"", + an accent. Had a ""dr"" label me recently just because he couldn't or didn't want to take time to understand me or my difference in talking. Just cuz you have a difference from others, does not mean ur ""delayed"". Unfortunately he didn't or couldn't understand that 😡🤬 Need to have surgery done. But nobody wants to do it. Longer they take to remove the ridges of bone, longer it affects my speech and ""others"" perception of me and my abilities. Don't like dentists 🦷🦷
Is it a tooth extraction? If so, you should be fine the next day. Just make sure you take your meds and stay ahead of the pain. You are brave and strong

I’m autistic and used to be nonverbal when I was baby didn’t started talking until i was five
I love seeing Abby when she gets excited. So proud that she remembers so much more without prompts.
So happy they found Abbie’s IPad. 😊
I'm happy she is back to interacting with peers. I hope she had a great first day
I don't understand why anyone would call child services. It's obvious that Ab is well cared for and living her best life.
Just fyi you can add a “home” button to the screen on the newer iPads too. Under accessibility, turn on assistive touch and you can customize it for just the one button and it works exactly the same as the home button.
She might not be able to figure that out or might not know what the button is for.
It happens, you check everything is all packed ready to go home, then sometimes realise afte getting home you left something behind, at least you all remember last seeing in your cabin. The iPad decided it wanted a few more cruise days lol. So great to hear Abbie was excited to start her new school/vocational programme.

Actually lol'd loud at "moms spaghetti " 😂
That’s just how it is for us all, I don’t even give my phone number to anyone unless it’s family or professional.
privacy is peace and peace is mandatory !!!
Abbie's iPad just wasn't ready to finish the cruise and decided to stowaway for another one! 😂. So glad you found it. I can imagine the room steward knocking on the door and asking "Can I look under the bed for a stowaway iPad."
Abby is a sweet girl why dont the haters leave you all alone
abby looks beautiful such a lovely dress and cute shoes that stinks i always enjoyed abby’s school day why some have nothing better to do then sit and hate is shameful we need more kindness in the world
I’m so glad they found Abbie’s iPad.❤
Well done Abbie. Hope you had a great time at school.❤
Scilla, my daughter in law spent 11 days in ICU and had a lobectomy due to letting an abscessed tooth go. The infection went to the space around her lung.
Prayers for you and getting this done!!
I feel your pain Priscilla. I had my wisdom tooth removed on Friday, no fun but had to be done. It’ll be alright though ❤️
Sorry about the petty individuals. Some people just don’t have a life so they ruin other people’s.
Keep being awesome ❤️
Only right Abbie left her words on he ship…so did mom and Isaiah 😂😂😂they lost their voices…boy a TIME WAS HAD 😁
So glad you now know where the pad was. Hope you get it soon.
I’m so proud of Abby and you as her parents she has really come along way
"Thank you for sharing. Miss Abigail, I hope you enjoy the rest of your evening. Sweet dreams, Mama." 💜🙏🖐
Have a great day at school sweet girl! 👩🏫📓✏️🖍
Your dress looks so pretty! 😊
I have an old ipad mini, never use it. Please tell me how to get it to you.
Your a really nice person❤
I think they would prefer you donate it to someone who can't afford it.
If you want to donate it to someone I'm certain there's a child out there that could really use it for a communication device. I appreciate it so much but there are plenty of others in need.
Since Asa bought one and Abbie is getting the old iPad back, you may want to donate your old ipad to a local assistive technology organization. They will format the iPad for a person that needs it, but may not be able to afford one.
What a sweet and thoughtful offer!
I hope Abbie had a great 1st day back and it is only your video. That can make me feel so jealous of an ipad 🤣🤣
That is awsome you get the iPad back
abby looks great luv her alot dont let ppl put u all down ur a awesome family prayers to u all luv paula #1 fan

A local is not bad. I had one when I had to have surgery for trigger finger. I was stressed out and they gave me something to calm me down
I hope y’all get the other one back. Y’all are really great parents. Your wife is amazing lady.
Love the peach color on Abbie so pretty 😊
Wow she has grown so much you didn’t have to tell her where her lunch bags goes and where her backpack goes proud of you guys ❤
If your a hater , move on ! Great video , glad you found Abbie's ipad , loving the blue hands , your great parents ❤
I am working with Vocational Services to get a job. Yay for her IPad being found!
That iPad case is genius! Love it❤
Abbie’s pastel orange dress looks amazing on her ❤
I really hate when people talk about people with disabilities in the comments,me and abbie have feelings just like y'all,im a disability person myself id y'all don't like it y'all can unsubscribe then,they not forcing y'all to watch them,abbie have a great school year and love you,hope y'all are having a wonderful saturday and stay safe out there❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗

Feel better.
Soon Priscilla ❤
I can feel Abbie when trying to smile. I have a muscle disease and don't smile easily. Abbie go girl you've got this. Blessings always
Me too….I can’t smile actually 3 out of 5 of us siblings can’t smile.😃
Perio Surgery is easy peasy!! I was a CDA, assistant for perio surgery!! You will be fine I promise. Bruising should be minimal and the swelling will not be as bad as on the boat!
I know you said she struggles with mimicking..but she mimicked the way you held your face for a smile.
I'm so happy your getting that tooth fixed. I pushed mine out to the point I had to have the tooth and the bone around it removed. It was so so painful.
LOL That blue ipad needs those travel stickers like on your camper. LOL
I love the colour of Abbie’s dress peach is such a Lovely colour
Been waiting my whole life to work the polls. Love it❤️
And I’m at vocational program too I have mild intellectual disability and possible autism I hope she does great at the vocational program I hope you guys get better with this situation❤
Happy back to school days love your videos happy Saturday and we hope you had a great day love from Canada and New Brunswick ❤️❤️🙂🙂🇨🇦🙏🙏
The sound of that work the polls 🤣is so funny 🥰
Silla is the sweetest ever. I hate to see her go through this.
It really upsets me too that some jerks would try and come for yall
Moms spaghetti makes me chuckle LOL
Abbie with the blue on her face reminds me of the movie avatar !!
Cilla just wants to make it to the polls 😂 ❤ I'm sure she will 😊 Abbie, remembering where her lunch box goes she was so excited and then blue everywhere 😂😂 she cracks me up 😂. We had a Jeep show today right by us you would have loved it 100's of jeeps even a green beetle juice one 😂😂 Poor Isaiah fixing his jeep ❤ I thought about y'all when I drove past the jeep show 😊❤
Just an idea maybe look into purchasing a strap for the iPad so she could wear it crossbody and have her hands free but it will stay with her as she goes about her day?
What a great idea! She's used to wearing her backpack, so she might be okay with a strap for her iPad.
I’m watching this in bed at 10:20 and I realized I forgot to take care of my laundry, yesterday. Thanks for the reminder lol.
Glad she got her iPad back
As Taylor tells us,, "Haters gonna hate."
That's no excuse.
So I had that surgery on both sides. The infection was so bad that it ate away at my sinus cavity. I had a very large hole in my sinus wall, which they had to repair. They had to replace my bone with cadaver bone. I had them put me out for it. Trust me you will be fine.
Yes 😊
You guys didn’t fail things happen. I hope you get the iPad back soon. Keep your family safe.
Abbie looks! So pretty y'all are a amazing family love y'all
I started watching your vlog years ago my grandson is 9 yys i want to say thats when i started but not sure but not long after i am very sick now all most bed ritten with copd i look forward to your vlog everyday i never miss a one i hope they dont end but if they do i will completely understand ❤
I haven’t wore dresses in a long time they feel stretchy Abby dress is so cute I now want to wear dresses they’re so flowy and roomy
That's insane to me thar anyone would contact Ab's school or Isaiah.🤦♀️ I'm so glad Ab's ipad was found and they are sending it back! That's great thar she was so excited for her first day! So was my daughter! Hopefully it continues! Sandy and Mav look soon cute!🥰🥰 Have a great Saturday everyone!!💚💚
Haven’t watched you guys In a while glad I’m back
Smurf Abbie too cute😊
That is so sad. People are so wrong they ruin it for everyone.
Lost you guys for a while . But I am back .. Love you all ..
The Ipad is now taking its vacation .
😂
Hey?
Do we (or can we)get to see Priscilla at the dentist again?? Still my favorite video and reaction of Priscillas is the time she got her tooth pulled and was upset that they threw her tooth away!! Oh watched that so many times!!!

I love your sunglasses and Abby looks so beautiful in her dress. When do school start for the kids in Florida.
I hope the staff from the cruise ship finds Abbie’s iPad. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I left my charger on Vision of the sea. I can relate.
Ok posting number 2 that IPad has seen a nice long vacation or more lol that’s just funny
The reason I was suggesting being able to tap the back of the screen by setting it for that is because I had to do that with my phone, which is swipe only. Being blind and autistic it’s hard for me to swipe to go home. I could imagine how hard it is for Abby. Really hard.
Dental work is such a luxury! I've had severe mouth pain for months because I have no money for help. You're so fortunate.
You are totally right. My husband has a tumor in the left chamber of his heart and a leaky valve that needs to be fixed or replaced and the surgeon won't do the surgery until he gets his dental work done. We were dropped from medical assistance in last October because we are on disability social security and they gave us a $5] raise and now we make too much so we don't qualify for dental with regular Medicare insurance and can't afford extra insurance coverage.

Something needs to change with medical and definitely dental insurance coverage because only the rich can afford dental procedures.
I will pray for you
Hope your treatment went well, Priscilla, ❤️ oh and hope you enjoyed the polls 🤣
BackYay! You are getting her iPad back
What communication program do you use for Abbeys IPad? I have a grandchild who is nonverbal.
It’s called TD Snap
I❤your video
Asa, go easy on yourself. We're all just mear mortals. With everything' you an Cilla do and you do it well. It's a shame how people can be so vindictive, Why? You guys do a great job. These people need to worry about their own. You guys stay safe.

.Hello, Miss Abigail and family. 💜🖐
Is it a tooth extraction? If so, you should be fine the next day. Just make sure you take your meds and stay ahead of the pain. You are brave and strong
When did you put up the second handrail? I literally just noticed it.💕🤦♂️
Looks nice
Hellooo from Wales in the UK
Ive followed your channel for a while and love it ❤❤ i also work with special needa school in the uk
Why do i have visions of it going to Autism on the Seas and the iPad coming back with pictures of it at all these places like holiday snaps 😂😂
I like your show
Can you somehow attach an AirTag to the iPad so it notifies you when it’s left your close proximity ? Also highly recommend AirTags in luggage
You look pretty Abby in your orange dress
I also make messes with paper
