Parallel play was my son's life until year 2 in primary school has benefits but also so hard! I wish I knew more about it then and that they were doing it with him
I used to do that too mostly because I would scare the bajeezus out of other kids with my meltdowns. So I would sit alone and look over to see how other kids managed to do anything and then I'd copy them.There was a trend among girls to write down the prettiest names from name tags,but I would write down random names.
RE: speech delay. It's possible to be on the opposite extreme of speech delay and be autistic. An autistic toddler could have precocious speech. My niece, who just got diagnosed as a teenager, was way ahead of her peers in terms of being able to talk when she was a toddler. She could speak in full sentences before she was two years old. On the other hand, my autistic son is eight and still nonverbal.
I just wanted to leave exactly that as a comment. Well, minus the personal information bit. I was one of those extremely early talking Aspie toddlers. My mother tells me I started adding words up to sentences when I was around 8/9 months old. (In exchange for that I was barely able to walk at the age of three 🤷 Can't be fast with everything.) Also as far as I know girls are often less obvious in their stimming. I never did any obvious hand motions. Maybe that's part of why I remained undiagnosed until my late twenties when I stumbled over it accidentally and by myself...
@@WeeLin 😅 I have this weird habit of "mirroring" dialects of people I frequently talk to. Which occasionally makes then think I'm trying to mock them or something. That one Scottish guy was seriously confused when I started to sound like I'm from Edinburgh myself. (English isn't even my native language) And no, I am not doing it on purpose and I can't keep myself from doing it.
As a parent of an Aspie (he's 10 now and recently got his diagnosis), I don't think I have replied appropriately to my son over his lifetime when he's upset from a sensory issue or upset because his routine is messed up etc. Should I strive to help him keep his routine at all costs. Do I give away the clothes that doesn't think match? When he gets overloaded and yells at me, how do I respond? If he doesn't want to go play with kids at a party, what do I say? I'd love to see a video on how parents should encourage kids with Autism, do we give into all the quirks and point out their neurodiversity as a good thing but try to get them to conform a little to the world in which they live. For example, my son will never greet adults in person, but he looks rude. Do I keep encouraging him to do that? I feel. like I never know the right thing to do or say.
I’ve been thinking a lot about this. Why am I spending so much in therapies for him to learn how to say how are you back? He’s got to the “I’m good part” but hasn’t nailed the rest and is clearly not or never will be interested in asking. So what if he comes off as rude? He doesn’t owe an explanation to anyone back that he’s autistic nor should we force him to care about asking how people are if he doesn’t care? Do people really truly care how someone is doing bc he’s capable of that. It really makes you question everything.
Sensory issues really suck, especially when you're a little girl. Clothing becomes a minefield of frills, lace and other sensory nightmare fuel. I hated wearing dresses so much!
Yes and this was so much worse in the 80s when I was a kid. My mom used to dress me in these stiff lacy frilly dresses and uncomfortable nylon type tights for church. It was horrible. I always felt so uncomfortable and itchy in church.
I think those five characteristics are correct.. In my case , I was a very good athlete growing up..I've read that supposedly we have problems with coordination ..It is thought that the phenomenal soccer player ,Lionel Messi , has ASD...It sometimes doesn't seem like all the characteristics apply 100% all the time , to all of us .There is no doubt in my mind , that the ASD helped me unbelievably in sports ..My focus and attention to detail was unreal .
I can't seem to do a high five. I miss the other person's hand. Can't dance, but I could ride a bike and climb trees. Loved badminton and yoga. It depends
It's incorrect. A brazillian journalist made up that information based in observation only, wich means nothing, cause we can't diagnose others only by what we think, it doesn't make any sense, brazilian journalism is very into football and they usualy focus too much in football players personal lifes and speculate a lot about it. Messi and his family denied this wrong information multiple times.
I'm surprised this one hasn't come up. Maybe a part 2 video? I was walking on my toes my whole childhood and still do today at 41 when I'm alone haha! No diagnosis yet, though.
Dan, I wonder if flapping is more common in boys. I stim, but I don’t flap. Maybe it’s just me, but I do know females tend to present a bit differently. Would be interesting to research.
I flap when I’ve touched something gross or with a horrible texture, but I have other more common stims like rubbing my hands near my ear, or chewing inside my mouth
Actually, I was born female and I identify as male. I am on the autism spectrum and I do the flapping when I'm hyper or anxious. Normally when someone stresses me out or I talk about a subject I really enjoy, I do the hand flapping. It's NOT just boys. I mean yeah I'm a boy now but most of my childhood I wasnt.
How important do you think it is to encourage friendship with my Aspie kid? He usually doesn’t care about having friends, but occasionally he is sad or lonely about it. I try to explain that he should invest in friends, by making an effort to spend time with people. But usually he rejects invitation. He’s 10. Should I push him a bit to do things with kids or just leave him alone about it, unless he decides he’s interested on his own accord?
There is permanent herbs to improve autism. It’s a medicine you can get from Dr Oyalo TH-cam channel, his herbs have made my son improve perfectly in his speech and social skills.
The cotton only clothes because of heat, and I don’t wear layers of clothes if I can avoid it. It can be challenging when it is winter! But now I’m more understanding of myself!
I've often wondered this. I knew I had Synaesthesia long before I went for an autism diagnosis, and I've suffered long bouts of headaches, migraines and face pains. My theory was that, maybe, having overlapping senses was basically frying my brain when it was overstimulated with lights, noise and stress. I mean, if seeing letters triggers my brain to see colours, who knows what other random things it's doing in the background? I read about a study that seemed to show higher rates of Synaesthesia in autistic people, and I really hope more research is done on this topic.
Eeee well, I'm not a toddler. Thing is, I went to an assessment.I know myself as an adult woman With significant memories . I was told that unless I could have others memories of my behaviours then there would be no diagnosis.Ivegone through this throughout my life.I'm totally done.Not dramatically. Just tired.
My son has speech delay, he started his first word at 4. He was diagnosed with mild autism. Now he's 6. Alhamdullillah very talkative. He can read well but trouble with writing. According to his clinical psychologist his memory is exceptional. He stimms a lot specially when he is happy. He's a very sweet kid always says i love u mama.
I can't relate to anything on this list, only hand flapping and some few and soft sensorial issues, and I don't know if I used to be this way in childhood. I heard somewhere that most of these issues will not be present in asperger people, that's one of the main causes of late diagnosis.
Hello Dan, I have just recently discovered your channel, I must say it’s so great of you to explain Autism and ADHD from your perspective. I have twin Nine-year-old boys whose one is High Functioning along with ADHD, my other son is Neurotypical. I have long wondered about a lot of the topics of your discussions; stimming, anger, transitioning from task to task, communicating and you have done a wonderful job explaining such. My Son was founded on the spectrum at the age of two years old and has been receiving support since. He also is engaged in Counseling, so I am familiar with a lot of third-party information: However, you do a phenomenal job explaining these traits. Please keep up the great work you’re doing, I hope you and your family have a joyful holiday.
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect.
My son is 3 and was diagnosed with asd. He only stims and nothing else. They said with his occupational therapy, school and speech there’s a good chance he’ll mature out of most of his stimming. Have you ever heard of an autistic person only having 1 symptom. I mean his stimming is excessive mainly when he’s tired or bored. I’m very confused

I’m only answering cause I hate it when you ask a question & no one answers haha so here’s my answer for you ~ At your age I don’t think you have a need to it’s not going to help you in anyway unless you want an answer for yourself or for friends & family to confirm Wishing you all the very best xx
@@Killedbyclowns Thank you so much. I really appreciate the response. I felt pretty sure a diagnosis was not going to benefit me in any way, but I did not know for sure. Thanks again and have a wonderful holiday season.
The heat thing is a biggee.My first job at 16 i could walk from home to as i generally walked fast the moment i hit the office the most horrible feeling came over me like i was perspiring from every pore.which i wasnt really.I had to go sttaight to the bathroom and run my wrists under cold water to bring down the heat of my body and feel more comfortable.Diagnosed with HFA at 60
My son was recently diagnosed ADHD. We’ve been having behavioral problems with him since he was little. He didn’t start talking until he was 2yr 5m old and he didn’t like looking you in the eye. We thought for the longest he had a bit of a hearing problem before we’d call his name and he’d just ignore us. I just brushed it off as him being too focused on what he was doing. He would like to run back and forth in the house and twirl around and around. He’s extremely picky eater and always has been. Now he’s 6 almost 7 and his school has been saying he’s acting different from the other. He currently attends a private school with his 8yr old sister who has ADHD. But even though they both have been diagnosed with the same thing my son acts completely different. I have to pack him the same exact lunch daily and if I change anything he has a meltdown. If I pull him away from what he is doing, which is mostly wanting to play Minecraft, he has a meltdown. He throws himself on the floor and repeatedly moves his foot up and down, and gets on his knees and swings his arms back and forth crying as we try calmly him down. I can tell you 10 things my son eats and that’s it. We have to give him multi vitamins and protein supplements just to make sure he’s getting enough nutrients. When he watches tv(Minecraft) shows, he will stand in front of the tv swinging his arms back and forth and then twirls around spinning. We are getting him reevaluated because we feel like he may have more than just ADHD. his sister which has ADHD is mostly just extremely hyperactive, and acts completely differently. I just feel overwhelmed because I took my son to get checked when he was 4 and the people spent five minutes with my son, and told me that he had no issues. Now I have equipped myself with video footage of my son behaviors so I can show them. My son loves to go up to children and try to make friends, but he always comes out extremely awkward. And if he gets blown off he gets so emotional and throws another meltdown. He now looks at me in the eyes a lot more than when he was a baby. That has gotten better. But the tantrums are hard. His picky eating is hard. When he throws a tantrum because he gets pulled away from what he’s wanting to do or a change in a routine at home or in school, it can be hard. I’m really suspecting he has more than ADHD and may be a little autistic. We go in March for his evaluation. I just want to know how to help my son. My son doesn’t flap his hands though, he swings them back and forth repeatedly. When excited or upset. We just want answers and to be heard. Also he has incredible memory and knows exactly where his favorite toys are. He can name every construction vehicle. Knows about every monster truck and tells you everything about Minecraft. That’s all he talks about. I honestly believe he has more than just ADHD when comparing his symptoms and behaviors.
Sounds like he is on the spectrum. You are so right to push for answers . With the right schooling he will be a very successful person . If he is on the spectrum you will know what he need to develop early on to fit in socially. Autism is in my family. Good luck ❤
I zoned out (or in) today in a group discussion, I was thinking about how you could turn canned soda into weird grenades by supercooling them then slamming them down.
@@fundamonium - There’s a common observation about people on the spectrum - ‘When you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism’ - in other words, the neurotypical obsession with diagnoses of difference is deeply flawed. Human individuals are unique; each one is a complex and complete person.
@@elisabethm9655 which makes these videos pointless then. I ask because I was told when my son was 4 that he had Asperger’s… he is now 8 and has friends, socialises well, cares for our pets and his brother, makes eye contact, top of his class, etc. he does certain stimming behaviours and struggles with loud noises BUT no one has ever said since that one professional that he could have Asperger’s or autism. He displays certain characteristics but they have not been detrimental to his life or happiness. That one professional’s words are always at the back of my mind though.
Every time I watch these videos trying to get more understanding of my son, I feel like I’m being described as a child and as an adult instead.. my mom always told me I had ADD even though I never saw anyone to be diagnosed. I always noticed I do zone out a lot unintentionally so I thought she was right. But all these videos lead me to believe I’ve been autistic this whole time and never knew it..

I cant say its related but i very easy sweat or get hot. I forgot a lot of things other. And yeah things seriously are , idont like certain. Ya the zoning is is.
I've done every single one of these as a child and a lot of them still stick with me. I didn't talk until I started my second year of kindergarten and therapy, after that everyone tells how it was so difficult to get me to talk and now I don't shut up.
I remember refusing to take a bath if the water was too hot so my grandmother had to buy a pool thermometer just for my baths. I could not be in the house if there were strong smells and when I was really young I would freak out during fireworks. My aunt said I would freak out if I was put on grass when I was a baby too. I do not think I have really ever done the hand flapping, I have other stimming that I have relied on since I was a baby. Plus, I probably did not do stuff like that because it would have made me a target. I was taught to not to do anything that would draw attention to me and doing stuff like that would have. I had delayed speech and had to meet with a speech therapist. I remember going to a hearing doctor a lot as a kid. I was lucky and made friends with kids who were more assertive than me and they went out of their way to involve me in their play. Knowing what I do now about autism it was really apparent that I am autistic and I am sure that if the higher ups knew that females could be autistic too I would have been diagnosed with it way back when. Although, thinking on how my schools treated those with autism I am realizing that perhaps it was a good thing that I was misdiagnosed as a child. I have a cousin who was diagnosed as a child with Asperger, I always believed that he was ignoring me when I called him because he had selective hearing. I thought that like any child he was just selecting to hear me when he wanted to.
I used this doc herbs for my son and now my son is completely free, his speaking and behavior is ok. His herbs is 100% working on speech delay and ASD. I met Dr Oyalo on channel and I’m happy to share my experience about it
as a girl in the spectrum, i feel very fortunate. people always thought i was social because i played with other kids. but looking back, i never once approached a group of kids. the groups were drawn to me. i'd be off on my own doing something cool and someone would come up to be nosey, hang around, and the others would come join. i was the weird kid, but it was for some reason accepted by the people around me. i was just the weird one who was always getting into something. nobody knew how deep that ran until i faced burnout in my 20's.

I have a 3yo son who I noticed he is just not respond to his name evertime I call him,he will respond once out of 10times,he has short attention to play and hardly make eye contact,he is happy all the time,he can speak in word but not sentences. I'm going to send him to school very soon and the moment the teacher look at him, she told me to seek medical help as they notice something different in my son,maybe a mild problem,it is a dilemma for me,and after I watch your TH-cam,I see all the symptoms in my husband,and only now I realized why my husband was just difficult to communicate and always having different thought compared to others which is weird
❤❤❤❤❤❤Natural Herbal treatment helped stopped my son’s aggression and improve in speech and social skill with the help of Doctor Isibor from TH-cam here. His herbs work perfectly.
But foods on a plate are not supposed to touch! I assumed it was an unspoken rule of children. At some point, a love of curried veggies can take over, and foods touching is no longer a deal.
My son is 10 and has 2 older siblings and he only seems to do well if they give in to his wants, he has to be in control of the play like plans out what they play and can even come up with a mental script it's just something I have seen him do over the last few years other than that in other play time like recess at school he was more of a loner swinging and watching the other kids almost like a parent trys to tell them if they aren't following the rules

Infant school seems to enjoy pushing baby past safety point. Despite being told in writing from mother. Dangerously damaging practice and very dangerouse!!!
This highlights to me that its important to speak with professionals, or at least mix with other parents when you have young kids so you can get an insight into what behaviour is typical and what behaviour might not be. I'm an only child and didn't mix much with other kids. My autistic behaviour was attributed to being shy. My parents had nothing to compare me too.
My son was diagnosed ASD, ADHD, and he does have a tendency to zone out, but he was also diagnosed with Auditory Processing Disorder. So sometimes, I can't tell the difference between when he's zoning out or when the auditory processing is to blame.
From best i can remember, Everybody wanted to play soccer at lunch. I tried playing soccer but was confused or "overstimulated" by so many people, so I would go play on the swings and slides and monkey bars often by myself. Its not that I wanted to play a lone, but Playing with 20-30 other kids was just too much for me. I really wanted to play in a small group of kinds.
Hey! I was wondering if you could do a video on autism and catastrophising. I've been doing it a lot lately so I was wondering if you could maybe share some tips on how to deal with it?
My son is currently 3 years and 8 months old. A doctor recommended us getting him evaluated sense he keeps repeating himself. He has alot of ASD symptoms but the biggest problem is that he tends to have a lot of tantrums especially when we go out and are in the car. He recognizes certain streets that lead to the mall, highway, family members homes, or pizza place. He begins to cry that he wants to "go". In the last few weeks it has gotten really bad to the point he throws things he asks for ( items that would calm him down before). Any advice on how to deal with this?
If you ever figured anything out let me know! I have my first daughter on the way but I have a almost 3 year old stepson who's like this and I just want to understand how to make him stop before my daughter is born
Do you stim as an adult? Can I change my son stimming? He is 3 going into 4 and he stims badly so I want to change it to a more socially acceptable way
they're not temper tantrums, they are meltdowns. it has nothing to do with temper. for me it's usually about being being overwhelmed by sensory input-- lights, sounds, touch/tactile sensations, smells. as a neurotypical imagine what it might be like if you were standing in the center of a circle surrounded by 15 ambulances with sirens blaring and lights flashing and you couldn't escape. how long would you be able to remain calm before just losing it?
It’s called a meltdown. It usually occurs when a child has been exposed to something they have a very sensitive response to. As soon as my soon would get the least not fidgety, o knew something was wrong and that I needed to help him by changing something. Once he could communicate, it got easier to ask what was causing his uneasiness and work around it. My son deals with a lot of sensory issues and food aversions, going to the grocery store is always an adventure of challenges. But we’ve formed a good routine and I pay attention to his body language to know when I need to hurry things along and get out of there.
My son I don't remember if he ever had one, and he's the gifted student but the fifth grade teacher wanted him checked to see if he had ADHD. She thought half the boys in class had it, so I figured it was just the boys going through puberty, he's always been high energy and might be bored in school!. Now I realize you can have ADHD and be gifted so I wish I'd had him checked. I think I might be also. My daughter is the one who had what people have called the terrible two's or temper tantrums. I just got on the floor with her and held her gently but firmly so she wouldn't hurt herself and rocked her while telling her "I love you, I'm right here" over and over. As she calmed down i loosened my hold until she took a deep breath. Then she'd turn around and say Thank you mommy, and run off and play. When I get overwhelmed my brain just says No and I have a seizure, or I break a bone. If I don't slow down my body makes me. My mother had stimming behavior and I see traits in my siblings too, and their kids
MELTDOWNS, so many different versions as my son grew up, we alleviated ( some) terrible twos issues by my teaching him baby sign language, his first words came in sign …and carried on as gesturing was easier for him…and when he got frustrated ( even now at 17) he often used some symbols instead of talking as it was almost simpler..and came to him without having to think. He was not delayed in speech, however, far from it.. advanced in concepts as well as language, and an amazing gifted memory . But the one thing that was the same, definitely attributed to over stimulating, was the meltdown… we also had the joy of night terrors. It’s been an interesting ride, still ongoing 💝👍🏼I’d not change it…but I also say it’s not been easy.
@@sandk6504 ok then, so are you all saying that any child who does this is on the spectrum? My child who did NOT have these meltdowns is the gifted student who had a teacher who wanted them tested to see if they had ADHD. I wish I had now.
Awsome information, My son wasn't diagnosed till he was 8 years old because I was in denial for many years. I am glad you have this channel and parents can learn vital info from an expert who is in the know. Cheers.

My eldest died recently from drug poisoning. From 14yrs old he tried self medicating because adhd was called naughty boy syndrome and because of this we were still begging to get him help at 30. He was finally diagnosed with adult adhd, bipolar and odd. He left his kids because he didn’t want them around him if he would scream and shout. The mother added to his problems by refusing to let him have access. 3 months ago he was given 6 months to live so he didn’t want to wait around and got blood clots on his lungs then also epilepsy. The world is cruel when a diagnosis for mental health has already dragged down to an unbearable life. Now my granddaughter is Elsie showing signs as early as 2yrs old

What about if hand flapping only occurs when the child is excited or sees something they like, vs. all the time? Still a sign? Can a child have autism and zero sensory issues or no diagnosis of sensory processing disorder?
I love watching and listening to you. You are helping so many people with your way of explaining autism/Asperger’s. I applaud you, my grand daughter is 5 but I recognized something different early on. You have really helped me in a way to simplify what I see and hear when I am around her, unlike pediatricians that tell the adult how to handle a child, not educating us in what is best for the child. Thank you soooo much for what you do, and how much and how many people you continue to help!!! God bless you !!!

I find your videos really interesting and informative and fun at the same time. This is a new world for me. And I want to learn and grow with my little girl as possible as I can.

My son is 4 and has been diagnosed with Complex Motor Stereotypies (stemming), SPD, and has a slight motor delay. He has been screened for ASD, and was given the diagnosis neurodevelopmental disorder-other. He spoke his first word at 9 mos. He could speak full sentences of 5+ words by 2.5, correspondence count to 10 by 24 months. His developmental screen revealed a high IQ. He loves preschool, he's very social, he will talk to strangers and ask new kids to play with him. He invites his friends to play, he joins games with kids at preschool. On the other hand, he couldn't jump at 3 years old. He would be afraid of falling if there were a steep sets of stairs. For awhile he got really scared of swings. OT said that it was SPD with his vestibular sense causing gravitational insecurity (think activities where your feet leave the ground). He does gymnastics and OT/PT which have helped a lot. I've noticed some other sensory issues that have become bigger recently. He hates having his hair washed and always has. He would cling to me terrified in water. We started private swim lessons and he's improving and likes to play in the water now, but he's very concerned about sinking. At the pool I tried to get him to jump to me and promised I wouldn't let his head go under. He pointed to a no diving sign on the interior side of the pool that depicted a person cracking their head and said, "look at the sign Mommy, it's dangerous." I explained that meant not to jump head first. When I take his wet suit off after lessons he cries and screams my hands are cold and it hurts. My hands are definitely cold bc the Y is a lap pool which is why he wears a wetsuit for lessons. He seems very sensitive to pain. Sometimes he gets upset that something is stinky when I don't smell anything. Lastly, he doesn't seem over sensitive to most sounds, but really loud stuff like the shop vac or the leaf blower will cause him to leave and wait until it's over. He likes to play lots of different games, but he loves to recreate movies and he definitely seems to "ignore" me at times when I say his name, and I have to say it over and over or tap him, but his preschool teacher says he doesn't do most of the things I mention at preschool. Since, he didn't meet the criteria for ASD, I'm really left wondering. My biggest question is how do I help with sensory issues and if you have advice? I tried taking his wetsuit off in the warm shower only letting the water hit his body and not hair, but that didn't help. Last time I ran my hands under warm water for a long time before I took his suit off. He complained, but his response wasn't as emotional. I've tried talking to his OT about hair washing etc and she says give him control of dumping the water to wash his hair. This does not work, bc he won't dump water on his hair. She keeps saying I'm doing the right stuff, but doesn't really give suggestions on how to make taking off his suit, washing his hair, or clipping his nails easier on him. I'm wondering if you might have some suggestions?

My son at the age of 8 was just very recently diagnosed with autism. He has almost all of the symptoms mentioned in the video except flapping his hands or stimming. Perhaps he did stim, but then it was very unoticable and I wouldn't be able to notice it as stimming.

I was fortunate enough to be diagnosed at the age of 2 because some people go until they are adults without knowing. I pretty much hit all of these criteria at the age of 2 that lead my parents to get me diagnosed.
Yep, son now 7 did and still does a lot if flapping of his hands. Also my 13 year old did and still does hyper focus and not respond to their name until few mins later.
My daughter, who is on the spectrum would "parallel play". She just liked playing alone while still being near others
Parallel play was my son's life until year 2 in primary school has benefits but also so hard! I wish I knew more about it then and that they were doing it with him
I did that too :)
I used to do that too mostly because I would scare the bajeezus out of other kids with my meltdowns. So I would sit alone and look over to see how other kids managed to do anything and then I'd copy them.There was a trend among girls to write down the prettiest names from name tags,but I would write down random names.
My son is the same way
@@sandk6504same with my daughter!
RE: speech delay. It's possible to be on the opposite extreme of speech delay and be autistic. An autistic toddler could have precocious speech. My niece, who just got diagnosed as a teenager, was way ahead of her peers in terms of being able to talk when she was a toddler. She could speak in full sentences before she was two years old. On the other hand, my autistic son is eight and still nonverbal.
I was the same way.
I was like this too, plus I would often speak with an American or English accent (I'm Scottish!)
My daughter does that too but she has no diagnosis. But she's definitely not a NT ,and there are a few professionals who agree.
I just wanted to leave exactly that as a comment. Well, minus the personal information bit.
I was one of those extremely early talking Aspie toddlers. My mother tells me I started adding words up to sentences when I was around 8/9 months old. (In exchange for that I was barely able to walk at the age of three 🤷 Can't be fast with everything.)
Also as far as I know girls are often less obvious in their stimming. I never did any obvious hand motions. Maybe that's part of why I remained undiagnosed until my late twenties when I stumbled over it accidentally and by myself...
@@WeeLin 😅
I have this weird habit of "mirroring" dialects of people I frequently talk to. Which occasionally makes then think I'm trying to mock them or something.
That one Scottish guy was seriously confused when I started to sound like I'm from Edinburgh myself. (English isn't even my native language)
And no, I am not doing it on purpose and I can't keep myself from doing it.
As a parent of an Aspie (he's 10 now and recently got his diagnosis), I don't think I have replied appropriately to my son over his lifetime when he's upset from a sensory issue or upset because his routine is messed up etc. Should I strive to help him keep his routine at all costs. Do I give away the clothes that doesn't think match? When he gets overloaded and yells at me, how do I respond? If he doesn't want to go play with kids at a party, what do I say? I'd love to see a video on how parents should encourage kids with Autism, do we give into all the quirks and point out their neurodiversity as a good thing but try to get them to conform a little to the world in which they live. For example, my son will never greet adults in person, but he looks rude. Do I keep encouraging him to do that? I feel. like I never know the right thing to do or say.
I’ve been thinking a lot about this. Why am I spending so much in therapies for him to learn how to say how are you back? He’s got to the “I’m good part” but hasn’t nailed the rest and is clearly not or never will be interested in asking. So what if he comes off as rude? He doesn’t owe an explanation to anyone back that he’s autistic nor should we force him to care about asking how people are if he doesn’t care? Do people really truly care how someone is doing bc he’s capable of that. It really makes you question everything.
Sensory issues really suck, especially when you're a little girl. Clothing becomes a minefield of frills, lace and other sensory nightmare fuel. I hated wearing dresses so much!
Yes and this was so much worse in the 80s when I was a kid. My mom used to dress me in these stiff lacy frilly dresses and uncomfortable nylon type tights for church. It was horrible. I always felt so uncomfortable and itchy in church.
That's horrible that parents don't listen when a child has serious issues with the clothes you make them wear.
I have this issue still as an adult, I can’t wear uncomfortable clothes it rules my day otherwise
I think those five characteristics are correct.. In my case , I was a very good athlete growing up..I've read that supposedly we have problems with coordination ..It is thought that the phenomenal soccer player ,Lionel Messi , has ASD...It sometimes doesn't seem like all the characteristics apply 100% all the time , to all of us .There is no doubt in my mind , that the ASD helped me unbelievably in sports ..My focus and attention to detail was unreal .
I can't seem to do a high five. I miss the other person's hand. Can't dance, but I could ride a bike and climb trees. Loved badminton and yoga. It depends
@@recoveringsoul755 I used to be so bad at high fives, then someone told me to look at their elbow, game changer!
@@nicholascrow8133 their elbow? Really? That seems so weird. Wish j had someone to practice on. Mg kids used to laugh at me
@@recoveringsoul755 yeah, it sounds weird, but it works!
It's incorrect.
A brazillian journalist made up that information based in observation only, wich means nothing, cause we can't diagnose others only by what we think, it doesn't make any sense, brazilian journalism is very into football and they usualy focus too much in football players personal lifes and speculate a lot about it. Messi and his family denied this wrong information multiple times.
Walking on toes is a big one
I'm surprised this one hasn't come up. Maybe a part 2 video? I was walking on my toes my whole childhood and still do today at 41 when I'm alone haha! No diagnosis yet, though.
My brother always did this. Very NT though.
My toddler was diagnosed with ADS and he has all of these.
This is me.
You are describing the child I was,
and the adult that I am.
Thank you.
I have Asperger syndrome. I was diagnosed at the age of 6. Now I am 18.
Dan, I wonder if flapping is more common in boys. I stim, but I don’t flap. Maybe it’s just me, but I do know females tend to present a bit differently. Would be interesting to research.
I flap when I’ve touched something gross or with a horrible texture, but I have other more common stims like rubbing my hands near my ear, or chewing inside my mouth
Maybe socialisation and gender ?!
My nephew flapped as toddler, my daughter and I rocked back and forth. So it could be a gender thing.
My daughter is almost four, she doesn’t flap her hands, but she does twirl them.
Actually, I was born female and I identify as male. I am on the autism spectrum and I do the flapping when I'm hyper or anxious. Normally when someone stresses me out or I talk about a subject I really enjoy, I do the hand flapping. It's NOT just boys. I mean yeah I'm a boy now but most of my childhood I wasnt.
How important do you think it is to encourage friendship with my Aspie kid? He usually doesn’t care about having friends, but occasionally he is sad or lonely about it. I try to explain that he should invest in friends, by making an effort to spend time with people. But usually he rejects invitation. He’s 10. Should I push him a bit to do things with kids or just leave him alone about it, unless he decides he’s interested on his own accord?
There is permanent herbs to improve autism. It’s a medicine you can get from Dr Oyalo TH-cam channel, his herbs have made my son improve perfectly in his speech and social skills.
The cotton only clothes because of heat, and I don’t wear layers of clothes if I can avoid it. It can be challenging when it is winter! But now I’m more understanding of myself!
Could Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD) be linked Synesthesia?
I've often wondered this. I knew I had Synaesthesia long before I went for an autism diagnosis, and I've suffered long bouts of headaches, migraines and face pains. My theory was that, maybe, having overlapping senses was basically frying my brain when it was overstimulated with lights, noise and stress. I mean, if seeing letters triggers my brain to see colours, who knows what other random things it's doing in the background? I read about a study that seemed to show higher rates of Synaesthesia in autistic people, and I really hope more research is done on this topic.
Eeee well, I'm not a toddler. Thing is, I went to an assessment.I know myself as an adult woman With significant memories . I was told that unless I could have others memories of my behaviours then there would be no diagnosis.Ivegone through this throughout my life.I'm totally done.Not dramatically. Just tired.
My son has speech delay, he started his first word at 4. He was diagnosed with mild autism. Now he's 6. Alhamdullillah very talkative. He can read well but trouble with writing. According to his clinical psychologist his memory is exceptional. He stimms a lot specially when he is happy. He's a very sweet kid always says i love u mama.
Loud noises! My son would scream and cover his ears when I would used the blender my other kids never did that.
I can't relate to anything on this list, only hand flapping and some few and soft sensorial issues, and I don't know if I used to be this way in childhood.
I heard somewhere that most of these issues will not be present in asperger people, that's one of the main causes of late diagnosis.
My daughter is 8 and flaps when excited and happy.
Hello Dan,
I have just recently discovered your channel, I must say it’s so great of you to explain Autism and ADHD from your perspective. I have twin Nine-year-old boys whose one is High Functioning along with ADHD, my other son is Neurotypical. I have long wondered about a lot of the topics of your discussions; stimming, anger, transitioning from task to task, communicating and you have done a wonderful job explaining such.
My Son was founded on the spectrum at the age of two years old and has been receiving support since. He also is engaged in Counseling, so I am familiar with a lot of third-party information: However, you do a phenomenal job explaining these traits.
Please keep up the great work you’re doing, I hope you and your family have a joyful holiday.
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect.
Your herbs has work wonders in my family.
Thanks for the help Dr Oyalo for saving my son from autism spectrum with your herbs. Your herbs is the best.
My son is 3 and was diagnosed with asd. He only stims and nothing else. They said with his occupational therapy, school and speech there’s a good chance he’ll mature out of most of his stimming. Have you ever heard of an autistic person only having 1 symptom. I mean his stimming is excessive mainly when he’s tired or bored. I’m very confused
There is permanent herbs to improve autism. It’s a medicine you can get from Dr Oyalo TH-cam channel, his herbs have made my son improve perfectly in his speech and social skills.
Please make more video on toddlers.
i eat anything i have no sensor problems but I'm autistic if you know me and you learn I'm autistic you will be really surprised
@Sofia Mac i have no sensory issues my parents think the ly autisim i have is obsession
I am 71 years old and suspect I am on the high functioning spectrum. Is there any good reason why I should be officially diagnosed?
I’m only answering cause I hate it when you ask a question & no one answers haha so here’s my answer for you ~ At your age I don’t think you have a need to it’s not going to help you in anyway unless you want an answer for yourself or for friends & family to confirm
Wishing you all the very best xx
@@Killedbyclowns Thank you so much. I really appreciate the response. I felt pretty sure a diagnosis was not going to benefit me in any way, but I did not know for sure. Thanks again and have a wonderful holiday season.
The heat thing is a biggee.My first job at 16 i could walk from home to as i generally walked fast the moment i hit the office the most horrible feeling came over me like i was perspiring from every pore.which i wasnt really.I had to go sttaight to the bathroom and run my wrists under cold water to bring down the heat of my body and feel more comfortable.Diagnosed with HFA at 60
My son was recently diagnosed ADHD. We’ve been having behavioral problems with him since he was little. He didn’t start talking until he was 2yr 5m old and he didn’t like looking you in the eye. We thought for the longest he had a bit of a hearing problem before we’d call his name and he’d just ignore us. I just brushed it off as him being too focused on what he was doing. He would like to run back and forth in the house and twirl around and around. He’s extremely picky eater and always has been. Now he’s 6 almost 7 and his school has been saying he’s acting different from the other. He currently attends a private school with his 8yr old sister who has ADHD. But even though they both have been diagnosed with the same thing my son acts completely different. I have to pack him the same exact lunch daily and if I change anything he has a meltdown. If I pull him away from what he is doing, which is mostly wanting to play Minecraft, he has a meltdown. He throws himself on the floor and repeatedly moves his foot up and down, and gets on his knees and swings his arms back and forth crying as we try calmly him down. I can tell you 10 things my son eats and that’s it. We have to give him multi vitamins and protein supplements just to make sure he’s getting enough nutrients. When he watches tv(Minecraft) shows, he will stand in front of the tv swinging his arms back and forth and then twirls around spinning. We are getting him reevaluated because we feel like he may have more than just ADHD. his sister which has ADHD is mostly just extremely hyperactive, and acts completely differently. I just feel overwhelmed because I took my son to get checked when he was 4 and the people spent five minutes with my son, and told me that he had no issues. Now I have equipped myself with video footage of my son behaviors so I can show them. My son loves to go up to children and try to make friends, but he always comes out extremely awkward. And if he gets blown off he gets so emotional and throws another meltdown. He now looks at me in the eyes a lot more than when he was a baby. That has gotten better. But the tantrums are hard. His picky eating is hard. When he throws a tantrum because he gets pulled away from what he’s wanting to do or a change in a routine at home or in school, it can be hard. I’m really suspecting he has more than ADHD and may be a little autistic. We go in March for his evaluation. I just want to know how to help my son.
My son doesn’t flap his hands though, he swings them back and forth repeatedly. When excited or upset. We just want answers and to be heard. Also he has incredible memory and knows exactly where his favorite toys are. He can name every construction vehicle. Knows about every monster truck and tells you everything about Minecraft. That’s all he talks about. I honestly believe he has more than just ADHD when comparing his symptoms and behaviors.
Sounds like he is on the spectrum. You are so right to push for answers . With the right schooling he will be a very successful person . If he is on the spectrum you will know what he need to develop early on to fit in socially. Autism is in my family. Good luck ❤
I zoned out (or in) today in a group discussion, I was thinking about how you could turn canned soda into weird grenades by supercooling them then slamming them down.
Isolated play - 👍🏼
Zoning out - 👍🏼
Stimming/hand flapping - 👍🏼
Delayed speech - 👍🏼
Sensory ‘issues’ - 👍🏼
❤
Thank you - yes, the list helps
So I assume you would need to have all of these for it to be Asperger’s? Not just one or two
@@fundamonium not all, but a significant number of them does signify that a degree of being on the spectrum is probable
@@elisabethm9655 so you could have all of the above but not be in the spectrum? Or perhaps it’s the degree to which eCh affects your life?
@@fundamonium - There’s a common observation about people on the spectrum - ‘When you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism’ - in other words, the neurotypical obsession with diagnoses of difference is deeply flawed. Human individuals are unique; each one is a complex and complete person.
@@elisabethm9655 which makes these videos pointless then. I ask because I was told when my son was 4 that he had Asperger’s… he is now 8 and has friends, socialises well, cares for our pets and his brother, makes eye contact, top of his class, etc. he does certain stimming behaviours and struggles with loud noises BUT no one has ever said since that one professional that he could have Asperger’s or autism. He displays certain characteristics but they have not been detrimental to his life or happiness. That one professional’s words are always at the back of my mind though.
Thank you for sharing this infor. I am still learning. My youngest (3) is diagnosed with autism (Asperger's characteristics)
Every time I watch these videos trying to get more understanding of my son, I feel like I’m being described as a child and as an adult instead.. my mom always told me I had ADD even though I never saw anyone to be diagnosed. I always noticed I do zone out a lot unintentionally so I thought she was right. But all these videos lead me to believe I’ve been autistic this whole time and never knew it..
My son has been diagnosed of autism spectrum since childhood and has battled with it all his life. But recently taking Dr Oyalo herbs have helped him get rid of it completely, his speech is vital and his social skill is perfect.
I cant say its related but i very easy sweat or get hot. I forgot a lot of things other. And yeah things seriously are , idont like certain. Ya the zoning is is.
I've done every single one of these as a child and a lot of them still stick with me. I didn't talk until I started my second year of kindergarten and therapy, after that everyone tells how it was so difficult to get me to talk and now I don't shut up.
I remember refusing to take a bath if the water was too hot so my grandmother had to buy a pool thermometer just for my baths. I could not be in the house if there were strong smells and when I was really young I would freak out during fireworks. My aunt said I would freak out if I was put on grass when I was a baby too. I do not think I have really ever done the hand flapping, I have other stimming that I have relied on since I was a baby. Plus, I probably did not do stuff like that because it would have made me a target. I was taught to not to do anything that would draw attention to me and doing stuff like that would have. I had delayed speech and had to meet with a speech therapist. I remember going to a hearing doctor a lot as a kid. I was lucky and made friends with kids who were more assertive than me and they went out of their way to involve me in their play.
Knowing what I do now about autism it was really apparent that I am autistic and I am sure that if the higher ups knew that females could be autistic too I would have been diagnosed with it way back when. Although, thinking on how my schools treated those with autism I am realizing that perhaps it was a good thing that I was misdiagnosed as a child.
I have a cousin who was diagnosed as a child with Asperger, I always believed that he was ignoring me when I called him because he had selective hearing. I thought that like any child he was just selecting to hear me when he wanted to.
I used this doc herbs for my son and now my son is completely free, his speaking and behavior is ok. His herbs is 100% working on speech delay and ASD. I met Dr Oyalo on channel and I’m happy to share my experience about it
as a girl in the spectrum, i feel very fortunate. people always thought i was social because i played with other kids. but looking back, i never once approached a group of kids. the groups were drawn to me. i'd be off on my own doing something cool and someone would come up to be nosey, hang around, and the others would come join. i was the weird kid, but it was for some reason accepted by the people around me. i was just the weird one who was always getting into something. nobody knew how deep that ran until i faced burnout in my 20's.

I realized that I zoned out while you were talking about zoneing out had to rewind. Thought it was funny though
(My grandson is autistic). Thank you, thank you for helping me understand my darling Toby. xx

Thanks for covering this ~ you are so right, when I was looking for help there was none all the books started when they were older
I have a 3yo son who I noticed he is just not respond to his name evertime I call him,he will respond once out of 10times,he has short attention to play and hardly make eye contact,he is happy all the time,he can speak in word but not sentences. I'm going to send him to school very soon and the moment the teacher look at him, she told me to seek medical help as they notice something different in my son,maybe a mild problem,it is a dilemma for me,and after I watch your TH-cam,I see all the symptoms in my husband,and only now I realized why my husband was just difficult to communicate and always having different thought compared to others which is weird
Your post makes no sense. Is the husband or kid has it?
You do good stuff here Dan. Thanks! So wish I had had this channel resource when my boys were little❤️
Adorable picture of you, Dan.😁
❤❤❤❤❤❤Natural Herbal treatment helped stopped my son’s aggression and improve in speech and social skill with the help of Doctor Isibor from TH-cam here. His herbs work perfectly.
But foods on a plate are not supposed to touch!
I assumed it was an unspoken rule of children.
At some point, a love of curried veggies can take over, and foods touching is no longer a deal.
Yeah! Thank you so much for the comment! Please subscribe to my channel to see more videos from me :).
My son is 10 and has 2 older siblings and he only seems to do well if they give in to his wants, he has to be in control of the play like plans out what they play and can even come up with a mental script it's just something I have seen him do over the last few years other than that in other play time like recess at school he was more of a loner swinging and watching the other kids almost like a parent trys to tell them if they aren't following the rules

Infant school seems to enjoy pushing baby past safety point. Despite being told in writing from mother. Dangerously damaging practice and very dangerouse!!!
This highlights to me that its important to speak with professionals, or at least mix with other parents when you have young kids so you can get an insight into what behaviour is typical and what behaviour might not be. I'm an only child and didn't mix much with other kids. My autistic behaviour was attributed to being shy. My parents had nothing to compare me too.
My son was diagnosed ASD, ADHD, and he does have a tendency to zone out, but he was also diagnosed with Auditory Processing Disorder. So sometimes, I can't tell the difference between when he's zoning out or when the auditory processing is to blame.

From best i can remember, Everybody wanted to play soccer at lunch. I tried playing soccer but was confused or "overstimulated" by so many people, so I would go play on the swings and slides and monkey bars often by myself. Its not that I wanted to play a lone, but Playing with 20-30 other kids was just too much for me. I really wanted to play in a small group of kinds.
Hey! I was wondering if you could do a video on autism and catastrophising. I've been doing it a lot lately so I was wondering if you could maybe share some tips on how to deal with it?
@Wesley Hinson You can't cure autism. It's a neurological condition, not a disease. I have autism myself.
What about spinning things? My 2 year old grandson spins wheels and anything else that will spin. He will do this for hours.
My son is currently 3 years and 8 months old. A doctor recommended us getting him evaluated sense he keeps repeating himself. He has alot of ASD symptoms but the biggest problem is that he tends to have a lot of tantrums especially when we go out and are in the car. He recognizes certain streets that lead to the mall, highway, family members homes, or pizza place. He begins to cry that he wants to "go". In the last few weeks it has gotten really bad to the point he throws things he asks for ( items that would calm him down before). Any advice on how to deal with this?
If you ever figured anything out let me know! I have my first daughter on the way but I have a almost 3 year old stepson who's like this and I just want to understand how to make him stop before my daughter is born

Do you stim as an adult? Can I change my son stimming? He is 3 going into 4 and he stims badly so I want to change it to a more socially acceptable way
What about temper tantrums? One of my kids had them and the other didn't. Gender differences or something else?
they're not temper tantrums, they are meltdowns. it has nothing to do with temper. for me it's usually about being being overwhelmed by sensory input-- lights, sounds, touch/tactile sensations, smells. as a neurotypical imagine what it might be like if you were standing in the center of a circle surrounded by 15 ambulances with sirens blaring and lights flashing and you couldn't escape. how long would you be able to remain calm before just losing it?
It’s called a meltdown. It usually occurs when a child has been exposed to something they have a very sensitive response to. As soon as my soon would get the least not fidgety, o knew something was wrong and that I needed to help him by changing something. Once he could communicate, it got easier to ask what was causing his uneasiness and work around it. My son deals with a lot of sensory issues and food aversions, going to the grocery store is always an adventure of challenges. But we’ve formed a good routine and I pay attention to his body language to know when I need to hurry things along and get out of there.
My son I don't remember if he ever had one, and he's the gifted student but the fifth grade teacher wanted him checked to see if he had ADHD. She thought half the boys in class had it, so I figured it was just the boys going through puberty, he's always been high energy and might be bored in school!. Now I realize you can have ADHD and be gifted so I wish I'd had him checked. I think I might be also. My daughter is the one who had what people have called the terrible two's or temper tantrums. I just got on the floor with her and held her gently but firmly so she wouldn't hurt herself and rocked her while telling her "I love you, I'm right here" over and over. As she calmed down i loosened my hold until she took a deep breath. Then she'd turn around and say Thank you mommy, and run off and play.
When I get overwhelmed my brain just says No and I have a seizure, or I break a bone. If I don't slow down my body makes me. My mother had stimming behavior and I see traits in my siblings too, and their kids
MELTDOWNS, so many different versions as my son grew up, we alleviated ( some) terrible twos issues by my teaching him baby sign language, his first words came in sign …and carried on as gesturing was easier for him…and when he got frustrated ( even now at 17) he often used some symbols instead of talking as it was almost simpler..and came to him without having to think. He was not delayed in speech, however, far from it.. advanced in concepts as well as language, and an amazing gifted memory . But the one thing that was the same, definitely attributed to over stimulating, was the meltdown… we also had the joy of night terrors. It’s been an interesting ride, still ongoing 💝👍🏼I’d not change it…but I also say it’s not been easy.
@@sandk6504 ok then, so are you all saying that any child who does this is on the spectrum? My child who did NOT have these meltdowns is the gifted student who had a teacher who wanted them tested to see if they had ADHD. I wish I had now.

Do they also have a problem with pointing & waving?
I have autism and have never had a speech delay but had a similar issue called selective mutism
My eldest died recently from drug poisoning. From 14yrs old he tried self medicating because adhd was called naughty boy syndrome and because of this we were still begging to get him help at 30. He was finally diagnosed with adult adhd, bipolar and odd. He left his kids because he didn’t want them around him if he would scream and shout. The mother added to his problems by refusing to let him have access. 3 months ago he was given 6 months to live so he didn’t want to wait around and got blood clots on his lungs then also epilepsy. The world is cruel when a diagnosis for mental health has already dragged down to an unbearable life. Now my granddaughter is Elsie showing signs as early as 2yrs old

My toddler son shakes his head sometimes. It that a form of stimming?

What about if hand flapping only occurs when the child is excited or sees something they like, vs. all the time? Still a sign?
Can a child have autism and zero sensory issues or no diagnosis of sensory processing disorder?
I have the same question aswell 🤔
I love watching and listening to you. You are helping so many people with your way of explaining autism/Asperger’s. I applaud you, my grand daughter is 5 but I recognized something different early on. You have really helped me in a way to simplify what I see and hear when I am around her, unlike pediatricians that
tell the adult how to handle a child, not educating us in what is best for the child. Thank you soooo much for what you do, and how much and how many people you continue to help!!! God bless you !!!

DOES ASPERGERS REALLY COULD HAVE SPEECH DELAY?
I wish there was TH-cam when my son was a toddler. He was 8 years old when it appeared he has Asperger. There was only one professional who knew about this in my Eastern European country.
😢❤. Love you videos. ❤️
I used this doc herbs for my son and now my son is completely free, his speaking and behavior is ok. His herbs is 100% working on speech delay and ASD. I met Dr Oyalo on channel and I’m happy to share my experience about it

My son is 4 and has been diagnosed with Complex Motor Stereotypies (stemming), SPD, and has a slight motor delay. He has been screened for ASD, and was given the diagnosis neurodevelopmental disorder-other. He spoke his first word at 9 mos. He could speak full sentences of 5+ words by 2.5, correspondence count to 10 by 24 months. His developmental screen revealed a high IQ. He loves preschool, he's very social, he will talk to strangers and ask new kids to play with him. He invites his friends to play, he joins games with kids at preschool. On the other hand, he couldn't jump at 3 years old. He would be afraid of falling if there were a steep sets of stairs. For awhile he got really scared of swings. OT said that it was SPD with his vestibular sense causing gravitational insecurity (think activities where your feet leave the ground). He does gymnastics and OT/PT which have helped a lot. I've noticed some other sensory issues that have become bigger recently. He hates having his hair washed and always has. He would cling to me terrified in water. We started private swim lessons and he's improving and likes to play in the water now, but he's very concerned about sinking. At the pool I tried to get him to jump to me and promised I wouldn't let his head go under. He pointed to a no diving sign on the interior side of the pool that depicted a person cracking their head and said, "look at the sign Mommy, it's dangerous." I explained that meant not to jump head first. When I take his wet suit off after lessons he cries and screams my hands are cold and it hurts. My hands are definitely cold bc the Y is a lap pool which is why he wears a wetsuit for lessons. He seems very sensitive to pain. Sometimes he gets upset that something is stinky when I don't smell anything. Lastly, he doesn't seem over sensitive to most sounds, but really loud stuff like the shop vac or the leaf blower will cause him to leave and wait until it's over. He likes to play lots of different games, but he loves to recreate movies and he definitely seems to "ignore" me at times when I say his name, and I have to say it over and over or tap him, but his preschool teacher says he doesn't do most of the things I mention at preschool. Since, he didn't meet the criteria for ASD, I'm really left wondering. My biggest question is how do I help with sensory issues and if you have advice? I tried taking his wetsuit off in the warm shower only letting the water hit his body and not hair, but that didn't help. Last time I ran my hands under warm water for a long time before I took his suit off. He complained, but his response wasn't as emotional. I've tried talking to his OT about hair washing etc and she says give him control of dumping the water to wash his hair. This does not work, bc he won't dump water on his hair. She keeps saying I'm doing the right stuff, but doesn't really give suggestions on how to make taking off his suit, washing his hair, or clipping his nails easier on him. I'm wondering if you might have some suggestions?

Pls stop going after gullible,desperate parents.Honesty can go a long way
I heard from my dad that I play independently
i watch Dan on 1.75 speed it's very, very good for fast information input XD
He has slowed down recently. I think some people maybe commented that he was talking too fast.
@@cd4536 I always liked his fast talkingstyle, it fits my short attention span ^^
My son at the age of 8 was just very recently diagnosed with autism. He has almost all of the symptoms mentioned in the video except flapping his hands or stimming. Perhaps he did stim, but then it was very unoticable and I wouldn't be able to notice it as stimming.

Good x Parents!!! 🙏
I was fortunate enough to be diagnosed at the age of 2 because some people go until they are adults without knowing. I pretty much hit all of these criteria at the age of 2 that lead my parents to get me diagnosed.
