According to this I am autistic. This was particularly apparent when I was I child. I was just considered shy and introverted. I am now 61. I have never been diagnosed.
How you guy wd see the rest of life now since you realise late that you are autistic ? Is there anyway for you to get some help somehow or is too late ??
I was started schooling at age 2.5 I was shy and introverted but I was very intelligent and started talking very early . I am 16 and I feel difficulty in socializing and communication
Autism is not always that bad. I am getting freaking mad because of people making fun and insults of it. They should be thankful they don't have any illnesses to be insulted with... Imagine yourself at a place of the person you are insulting... Would you like it? Doubt it. Ah those rude people nowadays.
As a person with autism who gets harrassed online about it, I'm so done with people using it as ammunition to bully/harass others. It's so bullshit that nobody does anything about it. We live in a society where people think its okay to bully disabled people because "Well, people say it on the internet, so it must be okay!" Someone needs to put a cork in this bullshit; I'm looking at you, Biden, POTUS. Make a speech or something. Anything to stop unwanted harassment against disabled people over the internet. I may sound like a whiny snowflake, but I've dealt with this shit long enough to complain about it.
Kind of shocked that the people acting as professionals in this video seem to be untrained in any aspect of Autism. You do not repeat loudly at an autistic person, you wait, silently until they answer you. You do not invade an autistic person's space or put your hands on their faces - once or twice they actually pulled a child across the floor. This is ridiculous and I'm VERY disappointed that I was made to watch this as part of my CPD course in Ireland. I'm fully trained in the TEACCH approach to Autism Spectrum Disorder teaching and this video is terrible.
"You do not repeat loudly at an autistic person, you wait, silently until they answer you." YESSSSSSSS Precisely! I need to rummage through my mind to find all the info I have!
Aoife Nic Sheain I think this video is just to point out Autism, not to show how amazing these professionals are in solving Autistic problems. I know it seems like they aren't doing their job... but it might just not be the point of the video.
These therapists appear to simply be part of the diagnosing process It doesn't look like they are even demonstrating treatment. The successful retrieval from an autistic who is trapped in the circle is far more detailed than that. A successful therapist won't try to "rip the child" out of the circle, but rather wil attempt to work his or her way into the child's circle, perhaps by communicating in a manner that the child is capable of. If the child is capable of only silence, the therapist better get real good at communicating via expressions. The shit these therapists do would only make it worse if they kept it up through out the treatment process.
My story of Autism: I was born in the week before thanksgiving in 2001, I never remembered what was like after that, especially when I try hard to do so. Math is my greatest strength, I became good at it since third grade, and made 💯 in precalculus (a hard math subject) during my senior year. But as for my weakness, I was silent until I was 5. I felt scared to speak, as if I feared that whoever speaks bad about me, would always win. I would feel the nerves inside me that’s placing a lot of pressure into my brain and my muscles. I always feel nervous when eventful things happen (such as tests, quizzes, activity decision, etc.). As of now, I wasn’t scared of the Coronavirus pandemic, but what I’m scared of was people who would put lives in danger by threatening other people who are not in curfew that can make the virus even more worse. Math is my strength, speech is my weakness.
My 6 years old has autism and I love him very much with all my heart and thank's for my family and friends for their continually supporting us... # love u son Miguel rex tearle
Glorious learning of my 6 year old son who has Autism and lives with his mom. I will always assist my son with his autistic life ;-). God bless, Gustavo Ceja
This entire thing was such a flashback to my childhood. My parents saw all the signs when I was little, but didn't want me to grow up with a "label." I never noticed it till being diagnosed two years ago, but if I had seen something like this, I would have known immediately how it connected with me.
Am a special needs teacher in Kenya who work mostly with Autistic children and its so sad how some of the comments are mean here towards autistic people. I mean people with ASD are one of the most wonderful people to be around, they are not different from us,they are the same,just wired differently.please Take time to know them before you judge them.
Edwin Okoth Yoga thank you for your encouraging words. I live in china but just realized my daughter might be autistic. But it’s hard to handle it because of communication I wish we could connect with each other. You might help me. Your words are so kind
My brother is autistic and mid to low functioning. Unfortunately, he’s not able to talk and he needs a communication device. He was luckily diagnosed when he was very young so he is getting help and he’s improving a lot 😊 I also have a bit of it but very little.
Interesting that when the teacher was interacting with the little boy, he kept trying to engage her to discuss fire trucks. He even tried asking her a question to engage her: all to no avail. SHE seemed to have an obsession with speaking about one selfish interest: her own long over-with school experiences. This boy seemed to be an Aspie (takes one to know one!). He has a passion for this subject. An astute teacher would've met him where he was & not ignored his efforts at socializing.
I reacted the same way you did, these are not learned, professional teachers... Just look at the way the teacher at 1:35 forces the childs head to move "you will look at me when you say hello". Blows my mind they even show this lack of knowledge and above it all try to teach it to others. A lot of red-flags in this video.
I had a lot of these symptoms when I was young. My parents almost sent me to locally mental hospital. However, I have grown up normally. There's a catch. I used to had a fantastic memory and an unbelievable concentrating skill. As I continue to grow, I completely lost those skills.
I have autism myself and I am 22 and a half years old! I used to hate life all the time because I never felt accepted. I now feel more accepted and I enjoy myself more.
I think it was unfair to the little boy at the beginning to be forced to give eye contact! People with autism get a lot of sensory overload so it's hard for them to give eye contact. And forcing it just makes the sensory overload worse! It's hard to believe that was in the video/being done!
Autistics have different levels of behavior and ability to do things such as speak and communicate. Some can be very social yet not function if lunch not same dish or at same time. Or can't speak but can do sign language or understand hand signals. Some don't like to be touched and others are very touchy feely. It depends on the person.
It's sad that some people are so ignorant. There is nothing wrong with people that have autism. Their brain just works a little differently than that of "normal" people. Many autistic people are far smarter than most of us could ever hope to be.
This problem with children does seem to be on the increase. There are claims that it is being deliberately being given to children via injections so as to deliberately dumb down the kids of future populations.
Sardine, I don't think you understand...Programs are made to help increase the quality of life with those on the autism spectrum. Are you saying there is nothing wrong with a child who engages in 1000 self-injurious behaviors in the form of hitting their own head which serves a social function? People need to red rid of this "Accept their behavior" attitude....the behaviors that we might "accept" could be harmful to themselves and their quality of life. I'm not talking about small, self-stimulating behaviors here. Think and do a little research, please.
When the boy was talking about the fire trucks, all I wanted to do was have a conversation with him about fire trucks. Like, yeah, school’s whatever, let’s talk about the important stuff here.
Thank you SO much. I've been searching for the last hour and literally all I got because everyone's afraid of hurting someone's feelings is "Autism exists on a spectrum" Literally it. What does that mean!? What are the symptoms? How do I know if I'm autistic myself?! So thank you to the creators of this for breaking it down and actually explaining the spectrum WITH EXAMPLES! I actually understand now and actually do sympathize.
It's how they help them it works really good my little sister has Autism and they do this to her now she looks at people for at least 10 seconds it's really good
If we dont want to look at you, dont force us. It's that easy, we can still hear you so why do we have to look at you. Thanks for listening to my ted talk.
@@puffy77 because that is how people communicate in the world. If you don't, then you will be closing door to you. They will think you are weird and prejudge you, that is why. Therapists want you to navigate the world to your advantage and not to change you
@@sunsand7062 No. There are many cultures where it is very rude for a child to make eye contact with an adult and woman or girls are not to make eye contact with boys or men. Eye contact is not the way "the world" does communication. There are many ways to illustrate attention is being paid to someone speaking and eye contact is only one. Stimming is also a necessary coping mechanism and unless it is self injurious or destructive or harming someone else it is cruel for programs like ABA to stop it. Instead redirection to "safe" ways for self regulation is preferable for a lot of autism specialists now.
GOSH people are so ignorant. I am quite surprised to see people arguing against the existence of autism. Autism is clearly real and clearly affects a person significantly, making many areas of life most find easy and enjoyable near impossible. Like anybody that is different, a large part of acceptance is understanding them and knowing how they think and how to interact with them. if you're a mature insightful person, you should take away from this some information; how to spot it if you have children of your own, and how to better understand somebody you may come across that has autism. It is embarrassing, ignorant and dismissive for people to say autism is just a label given to people that are different. Clearly it's very real... How stupid do you have to honestly be to think otherwise? Sure in a perfect world, we could accept everyone as they are, but to operate and function in our world today, some people certainly need much more help, guidance and UNDERSTANDING than others. Clearly people don't have much sympathy for people that suffer and their families.
Techno Creeper literally to me I would NOT dispute it. I went to school with a severely autistic child, that was more than proof enough.. My god, he was hard to manage this boy.........
lalala kieran Well I went to a school with a child whose mother said he had severe autism. He was basically an ape in the classroom that could talk. No one was friends with him, and every time he tried to get someone to play with him they would drift off like a normal person would. And on top of all that, he was the dumbest person in the school. Notice how I didn't say grade. Because in the second grade I knew most of the things he didn't know like how to read past level M and simple division. I was at fourth grade at the time.
Honestly, I absolutely LOVE autism children. They may be hard to understand sometimes, but they are so love-able. I would adopt all the autism children in the WORLD if I could! God bless there cute little hearts!
I have just been diagnosed with autism and half of these comments have made me think that no likes me anymore I don't make friends easily and my friendships never last long I,ve been bullied all my life I'm only 11 years old and most of these comments make me sick.
You look very young still, don't worry! Life is a lot less stressful after school is done, you can choose to only have wonderful people in your life. Just focus on working on your social skills, push yourself past your comfort level and remember its okay to make mistakes, because that's the best way to learn from them
The school years are tough, Evie. Once you get out in the bigger world, you're going to meet so many different, interesting people. And many of these people WILL want to be your friend. You just have to make it through the school years. Trust me, they won't last forever, and all those idiot bullies will be a distant memory.
evie mirgaux Its ok. im not autistic but ive been through a lot. most people always think they are the definition of "normal" or "good" but thats completely wrong. id rather be me than being those ignorant human beings. Be happy with what you have, seeing the world from different perspective is not curse, its a gift. :D
I completely disagree with the actions of the adults in this video. If a child doesn't make eye contact with you, don't fucking force them to look at you physically. That is completely inexcusable; especially if you actually have autism like me and avoid eye contact because you perceive it as an act of hostility and superiority rather than being courteous.
My reaction was an extreme one and it was NOT just because of the autism. I don't want anyone to think i was inferring that. I was abused, and i reacted in a manner to make the abuse stop. it worked. Getting back to the point I was trying to make, it is very important to take great care in stimulating the autistic in a manner so as to be able to look into another's eyes.
Some of these signs of autism seem perfectly normal to me... Like parts of an object? I'm sorry but is it not normal for kids to wonder how things work?
Roger Avati its not a disability at all u dont have it so dont try to bring BS into it unless u know the feeling of how it feels.. disgusting little child how DARE u.. u clearly have SOMETHING wrong with u but defo not autism wat u do need help with is getting some RESPECT ''Autism is a lifelong developmental disability. On its own, autism is not a learning disability or a mental health problem. But some people with autism have an accompanying learning disability, learning difficulty or mental health problem. Autism is a spectrum condition.'' from google so GET UR FACTS RIGHT
What is autism? Well, from my own experience I can tell that it is fucking anything but a blessing... It just gives so many struggles in life, including finding a partner and getting along fine with other people.
Many autistic people have sensory processing disorder (also known as Sensory Integration Disorder), which means that the brain underreacts or overreacts to certain stimuli. Here are some examples. Sight-Becoming overwhelmed by bright colors or moving objects, not noticing things like road signs, attraction to the sight of hustle and bustle Hearing-Covering ears or hiding from loud noises such as vacuum cleaners and crowded places, not noticing when people are talking to you, missing things that people say Smell-Feeling disturbed or nauseated by smells that don't bother others, not noticing important smells like gasoline, loving strong scents and buying the strongest-smelling soaps and food available Taste-Preferring to eat only bland or "kid food," eating extremely spicy and flavorful food while disliking anything bland, or disliking trying new foods Touch-Being bothered by certain fabrics or clothes tags, not noticing when people touch you lightly or you are injured, or constantly running your hands along everything Vestibular-Getting dizzy on cars or swingsets, or constantly running around and climbing things Proprioceptive-Constantly feeling uncomfortable movements of your bones and organs, bumping into things, or not noticing when you are hungry or tired
I'm autistic and I have am very imaginative it grinds my gears when people say you cant have it because you have an imagination what about all these authors
Probably because when they grow up, those quirks of theirs can, but not always, exponentially increase. I agree, it shouldn't be called a disorder, but instead just a personality quality.
I wish she wouldn't force him to use eye-contact. They're clearly making an effort, but it's so disheartening to see the lack of empathy in the way these care-takers are treating their autistic charges and the way they characterize the disorder.
I fully agree!! :( The language & the way some of these behaviors are described really bothers me. Playing with a toy kitchen "appropriately"? Not responding because someone's speaking loudly & in your face? And yes - don't even get me started on the forced eye contact, or doing/saying things just the way the "teachers" want them to. (And trying to eliminate all stunning behavior, not just that which involves self-harm or harm to others.) I'm not denying there are challenges associated with autism (particularly if other comorbid physical or mental conditions are present), but autistics are no less intelligent or aware than NTs. (In fact, sometimes a shutdown or hyperfocus occurs due to overstimulation, not from a refusal to cooperate.) :/ And there's nothing in these behavioral interventions that looks at the ways in which autistics can and do contribute to the world - because of their autism, not in spite of it. :( Okay, soapbox done.
my brother have autism my brother cant speak he's now 10 years old..... i've tried many therapy for my little brother,but fail.....how to cure my brother... please help me... thank you
+ASD Academy Yup, she makes me so annoyed...turning kids face toward her, "What do you want? What do you want?" If he could verbalise I bet he'd say, " I wan't you to stop trying to force me to look at you!"
Interesting this explained it better, I guess I don't have autism, I often hear people explain it and they do so poorly where the symbols seem more general or wide ranging. This showed some great visual examples
I’m so happy a video like this exists! Yes I am a child, but I’ve found that u had things that were different then everyone else an what do you know! I have 2 traits from each one! This was extremely helpful and I’ll use it in the future for times when I need it!
I was born with autism but grew out of it. This was due to 3 reasons: 1- my autism was mild 2- I was given good quality therapy at a young age. 3- Luck
Autism is not a disease. It is groups of traits that tend to appear together. People don't get them, people are born with them, and they will never go away. And that's pretty nice. We don't always learn things in the same order as most people. Encourage autistic children to do what they enjoy and are good at. We might have very different ideas about what would make a person uncomfortable, and because of that we seem to switch between emotionlessness and overreacting, even though we don't. Encourage non-harmful stimming, like flapping, jumping, spinning, singing. Discouraging it leads to more harmful stimming, like scratching, head banging, hitting. If we can't relieve our stress and express ourselves, we get tired and miserable, we can develop illnesses, we can lose our appetite for days. When autistic children seem to be doing nothing but repeating some little thing, they are not asleep or unconcious. Maybe they're thinking about the things that fascinate them. Maybe they're observing the behaviour of other children. Maybe they're observing the behaviour of the teachers. Maybe they're re-analyzing some event that happened years ago and learning something new about others and themselves. I'm going to keep doing this, no matter how old I get. Whatever we're doing with our minds, we're usually enjoying it. For us, looking people in the eye is not connecting. It is hostility. Don't force us. Don't touch us without permission, it's disgusting, invasive, and for some of us it is basically sexual assault. If you want to know the truth about autism, find blogs written by aspies themselves. Search sites like Tumblr and Wordpress. Don't Google anything autism related without advice from an aspie. If your child has autism, find aspies on the internet. Only we can truly speak for ourselves. TLDR - We know more about ourselves than the professionals. Read our blogs
Absolutely agree in regards to the forced eye contact and touching. Accept our differences and stop trying to "cure" us and make us fit in by forcing us to be social or talk about irrelevant and mundane crap like "how was school?" If the kid wants to talk about firetrucks, ask him about them. To autists, small talk is basically the same script that people just repeat mindlessly to each other over and over again. We don't care and don't see any point or advantage to being fake and disingenuous in our conversations. If that makes us appear socially inept and unpopular, so what.
I'm 21 and got the official diagnosis over a decade ago. Most (if not all) of the things mentioned are me in a nutshell, as I did (and still do) the things mentioned.
I mostly have problems in the social area. I stutter and I have often have difficulty forming a complete sentence, describe a story, or explaining things to people without pausing to think. I usually avoid eye contact when speaking, because somehow, it's like a pressure to me. I usually look down.
Same. I had to go to speech therapy when I was younger since I couldn't speak that well and even now I struggle to form long sentences. Apart from that I'm as normal as they come.
I've always had this problem but I have social anxiety disorder. I was diagnosed in preschool with social anxiety disorder and selective mutism. Some of the symptoms of social anxiety disorder are similar to a few of the possible signs of autism
Exactly and that's why some children aren't diagnosed until later in life. Especially higher functioning children on the spectrum because ppl don't think they have autism
Well i have some of this things.The eye contact thing and looking up in the sky a lot.Social behavior is also very hard to me i prefer to use the internet in order to socialize.My verbal comunication skill is pathethic but i comunicate in a more visual way.I like to use my face a lot and have different facial expresions.
My concerns and curiosity brought me to this great material im proud to share. I hope anyone who has concerns or thinks their lil one may be autistic, for the childs sake and a fair chance in life, ask a dr. to diagnose if any , and just read and watch great material like this!!
I have a sister with autism....about 12 years we thought that she couldent talk, but than a women who had many acspirians with autism found out that she teached herself how to read! I'ts crazy cause she knows bigger and more words than i do! Im sorry for my bad english, i'm not american :)
autism does not give us a bad name nor it defines a person character. lack of understanding and indifference of people is the cause. I wish people could educate themselves. if you can define normality you can define autism too. I can proudly say that I am autistic and I consider myself more normal than any human being on this planet.
you know what!. i'm not to here cause debate or argument . this world is full of ignorant people. no bodys perferct. we are all different and unique in our own ways. accept people differences. that's all i have to say.
in general, people like to blame others for their mistakes and flaws, because it's good way to amuse themselves and it makes them feel good. not that they care though. if you live your life trying to be perfectionist, life wouldn't treat you any good.
that's okay, that's your opinion and you are entitled to it. it really doesn't bother me anymore. regardless I am proud of who I am. and Do NoT wish to continue this discussion further. have a nice life. BYE
Ever since I was a kid I knew I was different from others, but I didn't know why. until recently I found out about autism, I must say other than this disorder itself the most thing that bothers me about it, is that people perception and how they labeling us. when i hear people labeling me as Special case i just wanna beat the crap out of them. is it safe to say autism never wins?
wow! I must say I used to be bothered by the fact that people labeling me but these days the only thing bothers me is to deal with close minded people like. we live in 21 century with this kind of thinking the stigma of mental disorder never ends. I wish people could be more understanding and less judgemental of mental disorders by offering their support. you seem like an ignorant person. bad mouthing others will never make you more superior than the rest of us. over the last few years, i promised myself to offer my support and assistance to people suffering from any sort of mental disorders because the majority of those that are affected by mental health issue can not be an advocate for themselves. I'm not going to follow up with this conversation or reply back to you. I'm sure one day when you reach the maturity of someone your age. you will understand what I'm talking about. people need to educate themselves. without it the stigma of mental health issue will never ends.
I'm in the same boat, just learned i was Autistic this year. but I have always felt like my family's never understood me and I may understood why now but it's still hard at times being around people who never get you
My nephew didnt talk until he was 3 and he never paid attention to us until he was 4 and now hes interactive social and overall an active child why is everything treated like a disorder nowadays
James Cogdell no you dont grow out of it...i'm 29 and still have autism....my grandmother had it right up to age 86 when she past away....you can learn to cope and funtion to appease "normal people" but no it doesn't just go away and no you cannot cure it and yes people that hate us for being who we are should read more and talk less about things the understand nothing about.
Pj Jolene you don't grow out of it, I know that, but what I meant is do u you know how to act like a normal person. I usually use my autistic abilities as an advantage rather than a disadvantage.
so do I, I do not let Autism stop me being who I am, I explain to people that though i dont look at you, I am listening, once they gain my trust....not time specific...then i'm able to make eye contact....the only conceptions are with younger people, my nieces and nephews..and other Autistic people, when forced to make eye contact I shut down and become non verbal and display tick...or stims to compensate....yes I do act like a normal person..stressing on the word act...I am like an alien trying to be human ...sorry best comparison i have...to the extent that people i meet for the first few times think i'm totally normal. but around people who know me and accept me i'm gifted to be able to have them to share in good and bad parts of autism...and as you can tell I have a vast grasp of social skills and communication ie i can make my self understood with out a problem and no autistic person is stupid, just struggles to find who they are and where they fit in.
i have 2 classmates with Autism one of them flaps his ears repeatedly and talks a lot but he's cool and my other classmate is so smart he rubbs his thys repeatedly and he also talks kind of loud they're both cool
Recently I have been interested in discovering what is Autism ? what are its causes ? and how can it be solved or cured , thank you for posting this phenomenal video which provides a lot of essential information about Autism , Now I realize that Parents also should observe their children as I will do when I have kids in the future , three major areas to observe:1- Social , 2- Communication ,3- repetitive and inflexible Behaviors , I know that Autistic People , students or children can succeed .
is it possible to have autism and then lose it because this reminds me of me in early elementary school but now I don't act like this although I am very weird
The video clips are relevant and great examples of autistic symptoms and behaviors. It would be great if these video clips could be updated with a presentation overlay from DSM-5 with the revised diagnostic criteria. Looking for such a video with no luck to date.
A lot of this happens with my friend. He never pays attention, he talks a lot, makes a noise, and stays on one topic. He is a smart guy though, and I think he will grow up to be a great man!
For heaven's sake. So much cruel things in the comments. Man, some people need to do an entrance exam before using the internet. It would stop all that unneeded hate speech and idiotic trolling. Congrats, you got somebody mad! Now you're happy? Okay? Now go troll elsewhere. Okthxbai.
never EVER force an autistic child to make eye contact....why are people so intent on making us "normal" its causes a psychical problem to make eye contact, this unit thing is great at labeling but really bad at showing parents/carers how to interact with an autistic child.....I am 29 and I dont make eye contact unless I trust you, when people tried to force me....it made me worse....let the child decide if they want to look at you and when.....forcing them is child abuse...
For me my diagnosis was Asperger syndrome I was diagnosed with it aged 7 and now I’m 24 as of 2021 and the condition is still here within me and it’s not gone away
I'm asian and my heart goes out to that little asian kid, he seems to not be as bad as the others, he can do it with our innate IQ being higher onto recovery. Good luck little guy
yuch1102 I'm not making fun of the fact that he has a small penis at the age of 6, I'm just pointing out the fact that his penis will still be the same size when he's an adult. Which will cause problems for him on the relationship front.
I was a clever little fucker when it came to escaping out of the house. I was very expert at unlocking all locks. I was only three years old! Man, for all the shit my mom went through. I don't think I could ever take care of an autistic kid, especially knowing that I have it myself.
same story ...hitting my g pro vape and thinking that same shit ...im sociopath too but i had scziophrenia OCD when i left weed for 2 months ..like weed induces some sort of psychosis but man now im stoned 24x7 and im the happiest chillest functional nigga haha
Underrated God wow you know what this reminds me of franklin vs trevor rap battle when you watch it tell me and as you are watching remember you are franklin
And to back you I would like to add that my daughter was developing great up until her 12 month needles, even some of her development were told prior was advanced. Now here I sit almost two years after those vaccines awaiting a three hour assessment to find out exactly where on the spectrum my daughter is. I'm not saying vaccines were the cause but after those one she regressed in most of her physical progress aside from walking.
According to this I am autistic. This was particularly apparent when I was I child. I was just considered shy and introverted. I am now 61. I have never been diagnosed.
Same here
How you guy wd see the rest of life now since you realise late that you are autistic ? Is there anyway for you to get some help somehow or is too late ??
Unless we are all of us a bit autistic sometimes ???
I was started schooling at age 2.5 I was shy and introverted but I was very intelligent and started talking very early . I am 16 and I feel difficulty in socializing and communication
@@dontwastetimeyouarelosingr8172 I guess that is social anxiety then.
Autism is not always that bad. I am getting freaking mad because of people making fun and insults of it. They should be thankful they don't have any illnesses to be insulted with... Imagine yourself at a place of the person you are insulting... Would you like it? Doubt it. Ah those rude people nowadays.
I guess every kid has autisum
I’m autistic and I’m sick of the bs from people.
Like we aren’t crazy we are people. We are just different.
We live in a *SOCIETY*
As a person with autism who gets harrassed online about it, I'm so done with people using it as ammunition to bully/harass others. It's so bullshit that nobody does anything about it.
We live in a society where people think its okay to bully disabled people because "Well, people say it on the internet, so it must be okay!"

These therapists appear to simply be part of the diagnosing process It doesn't look like they are even demonstrating treatment. The successful retrieval from an autistic who is trapped in the circle is far more detailed than that. A successful therapist won't try to "rip the child" out of the circle, but rather wil attempt to work his or her way into the child's circle, perhaps by communicating in a manner that the child is capable of. If the child is capable of only silence, the therapist better get real good at communicating via expressions. The shit these therapists do would only make it worse if they kept it up through out the treatment process.

My story of Autism: I was born in the week before thanksgiving in 2001, I never remembered what was like after that, especially when I try hard to do so. Math is my greatest strength, I became good at it since third grade, and made 💯 in precalculus (a hard math subject) during my senior year. But as for my weakness, I was silent until I was 5. I felt scared to speak, as if I feared that whoever speaks bad about me, would always win. I would feel the nerves inside me that’s placing a lot of pressure into my brain and my muscles. I always feel nervous when eventful things happen (such as tests, quizzes, activity decision, etc.). As of now, I wasn’t scared of the Coronavirus pandemic, but what I’m scared of was people who would put lives in danger by threatening other people who are not in curfew that can make the virus even more worse. Math is my strength, speech is my weakness.
Stay strong. You got this!
If your birthday is 11/15, then that's cool because that's my birthday!
We’re you diagnosed as autistic?

This entire thing was such a flashback to my childhood. My parents saw all the signs when I was little, but didn't want me to grow up with a "label." I never noticed it till being diagnosed two years ago, but if I had seen something like this, I would have known immediately how it connected with me.
Am a special needs teacher in Kenya who work mostly with Autistic children and its so sad how some of the comments are mean here towards autistic people. I mean people with ASD are one of the most wonderful people to be around, they are not different from us,they are the same,just wired differently.please Take time to know them before you judge them.
I work with an autistic child.
Edwin Okoth Yoga it's I'm not Am
Judging is one thing. Denying that there is a problem another...
Edwin Okoth Yoga thank you for your encouraging words. I live in china but just realized my daughter might be autistic. But it’s hard to handle it because of communication I wish we could connect with each other. You might help me. Your words are so kind
Edwin Okoth would wish to meet you and learn a thing or two
My brother is autistic and mid to low functioning. Unfortunately, he’s not able to talk and he needs a communication device. He was luckily diagnosed when he was very young so he is getting help and he’s improving a lot 😊 I also have a bit of it but very little.
57 years ago damn that got me 😂👌
I hope he gets better
My younger brother is autistic as well but he can talk albeit not that well. I hope your brother doing well because I know they're hard work at times.
I have a friend that’s a Boy he's Autistic he is hard to understand at times but is a really good friend if you understand his needs
Interesting that when the teacher was interacting with the little boy, he kept trying to engage her to discuss fire trucks. He even tried asking her a question to engage her: all to no avail. SHE seemed to have an obsession with speaking about one selfish interest: her own long over-with school experiences. This boy seemed to be an Aspie (takes one to know one!). He has a passion for this subject. An astute teacher would've met him where he was & not ignored his efforts at socializing.
I reacted the same way you did, these are not learned, professional teachers... Just look at the way the teacher at 1:35 forces the childs head to move "you will look at me when you say hello". Blows my mind they even show this lack of knowledge and above it all try to teach it to others. A lot of red-flags in this video.
I had a lot of these symptoms when I was young. My parents almost sent me to locally mental hospital. However, I have grown up normally. There's a catch. I used to had a fantastic memory and an unbelievable concentrating skill. As I continue to grow, I completely lost those skills.
Hope you find the skills again. You got this!
Wow ! Nice to know that one can outgrow it
My brother has autism too, and we really love him
I have autism myself and I am 22 and a half years old! I used to hate life all the time because I never felt accepted. I now feel more accepted and I enjoy myself more.
Jesus Christ loves you! He created you for A reason.
I think it was unfair to the little boy at the beginning to be forced to give eye contact! People with autism get a lot of sensory overload so it's hard for them to give eye contact. And forcing it just makes the sensory overload worse! It's hard to believe that was in the video/being done!
really I didn't know that a stupid chicken knows that but it helps the kid grow out of it.
@DLA 92 Your comment is ableist.
Autistics have different levels of behavior and ability to do things such as speak and communicate. Some can be very social yet not function if lunch not same dish or at same time. Or can't speak but can do sign language or understand hand signals. Some don't like to be touched and others are very touchy feely. It depends on the person.
I have some of those problems like continuing a conversation and socialising, but I’m not autistic, I might need to get tested for it
It's sad that some people are so ignorant. There is nothing wrong with people that have autism. Their brain just works a little differently than that of "normal" people. Many autistic people are far smarter than most of us could ever hope to be.
yes I have autism and I'm really smart.
This problem with children does seem to be on the increase. There are claims that it is being deliberately being given to children via injections so as to deliberately dumb down the kids of future populations.
Sardine, I don't think you understand...Programs are made to help increase the quality of life with those on the autism spectrum. Are you saying there is nothing wrong with a child who engages in 1000 self-injurious behaviors in the form of hitting their own head which serves a social function? People need to red rid of this "Accept their behavior" attitude....the behaviors that we might "accept" could be harmful to themselves and their quality of life. I'm not talking about small, self-stimulating behaviors here. Think and do a little research, please.

For asking somebody if they know that firetrucks are red, that’s like asking somebody “Did you know that cows go “Moooooooo!”?”.
Some big animal that’s white with black spots where milk, cheese and yogurt come from that says that.
Here's my autistic cousin, u dont understand what he is saying th-cam.com/users/shorts768XTI3LpcU?feature=share
When the boy was talking about the fire trucks, all I wanted to do was have a conversation with him about fire trucks. Like, yeah, school’s whatever, let’s talk about the important stuff here.
Right, cause I did not know they could be yellow. I assumed they were all red
Thank you SO much. I've been searching for the last hour and literally all I got because everyone's afraid of hurting someone's feelings is "Autism exists on a spectrum" Literally it. What does that mean!? What are the symptoms? How do I know if I'm autistic myself?! So thank you to the creators of this for breaking it down and actually explaining the spectrum WITH EXAMPLES! I actually understand now and actually do sympathize.

@@isabellaowen2977 no it isn’t good it’s bloody cruel
@@puffy77 because that is how people communicate in the world. If you don't, then you will be closing door to you. They will think you are weird and prejudge you, that is why. Therapists want you to navigate the world to your advantage and not to change you
@@sunsand7062 No. There are many cultures where it is very rude for a child to make eye contact with an adult and woman or girls are not to make eye contact with boys or men. Eye contact is not the way "the world" does communication. There are many ways to illustrate attention is being paid to someone speaking and eye contact is only one. Stimming is also a necessary coping mechanism and unless it is self injurious or destructive or harming someone else it is cruel for programs like ABA to stop it. Instead redirection to "safe" ways for self regulation is preferable for a lot of autism specialists now.
GOSH people are so ignorant. I am quite surprised to see people arguing against the existence of autism. Autism is clearly real and clearly affects a person significantly, making many areas of life most find easy and enjoyable near impossible. Like anybody that is different, a large part of acceptance is understanding them and knowing how they think and how to interact with them. if you're a mature insightful person, you should take away from this some information; how to spot it if you have children of your own, and how to better understand somebody you may come across that has autism. It is embarrassing, ignorant and dismissive for people to say autism is just a label given to people that are different. Clearly it's very real... How stupid do you have to honestly be to think otherwise? Sure in a perfect world, we could accept everyone as they are, but to operate and function in our world today, some people certainly need much more help, guidance and UNDERSTANDING than others. Clearly people don't have much sympathy for people that suffer and their families.
Don't say anything unless you have a PhD in a child behavior medical field.
Techno Creeper you do not have to be an expert in treating cancer to say cancer is real, how is this any different
lalala kieran Doctors with PhDs have proven cancer is real. But doctors with PhDs haven't proven autism. Yet.
Techno Creeper literally to me I would NOT dispute it. I went to school with a severely autistic child, that was more than proof enough.. My god, he was hard to manage this boy.........
lalala kieran Well I went to a school with a child whose mother said he had severe autism. He was basically an ape in the classroom that could talk. No one was friends with him, and every time he tried to get someone to play with him they would drift off like a normal person would. And on top of all that, he was the dumbest person in the school. Notice how I didn't say grade. Because in the second grade I knew most of the things he didn't know like how to read past level M and simple division. I was at fourth grade at the time.
kid is talking about fire trucks so talk to him about fire trucks
stevoooo1989 I know right like I talk about jojo and naruto all the time just let me talk about them until I'm done

Honestly, I absolutely LOVE autism children. They may be hard to understand sometimes, but they are so love-able. I would adopt all the autism children in the WORLD if I could! God bless there cute little hearts!

You look very young still, don't worry! Life is a lot less stressful after school is done, you can choose to only have wonderful people in your life. Just focus on working on your social skills, push yourself past your comfort level and remember its okay to make mistakes, because that's the best way to learn from them
The school years are tough, Evie. Once you get out in the bigger world, you're going to meet so many different, interesting people. And many of these people WILL want to be your friend. You just have to make it through the school years. Trust me, they won't last forever, and all those idiot bullies will be a distant memory.
evie mirgaux Its ok. im not autistic but ive been through a lot. most people always think they are the definition of "normal" or "good" but thats completely wrong. id rather be me than being those ignorant human beings. Be happy with what you have, seeing the world from different perspective is not curse, its a gift. :D
I completely disagree with the actions of the adults in this video. If a child doesn't make eye contact with you, don't fucking force them to look at you physically. That is completely inexcusable; especially if you actually have autism like me and avoid eye contact because you perceive it as an act of hostility and superiority rather than being courteous.
cracked eggs no, you can help by making them force to look. maybe a whipping or a smack on the face could work
errol mcinnes you needed help with Aba not all kids with this use self stemming
My reaction was an extreme one and it was NOT just because of the autism. I don't want anyone to think i was inferring that. I was abused, and i reacted in a manner to make the abuse stop. it worked. Getting back to the point I was trying to make, it is very important to take great care in stimulating the autistic in a manner so as to be able to look into another's eyes.
that remind me of my fucking bullshit autism
I would off told her to fuck off.
Some of these signs of autism seem perfectly normal to me... Like parts of an object? I'm sorry but is it not normal for kids to wonder how things work?
Yes of course,but usually their interest before is on the car and then on his part. Babies with autism ignore the car and they focus on one part
aquia80 My cousin is 2, and does these things too. I've wondered if he is autistic, but it's not up to me to find out.
7:50 maybe the child just doesn't want to copy others and has a mind of its own?

Many autistic people have sensory processing disorder (also known as Sensory Integration Disorder), which means that the brain underreacts or overreacts to certain stimuli. Here are some examples.
Sight-Becoming overwhelmed by bright colors or moving objects, not noticing things like road signs, attraction to the sight of hustle and bustle
Hearing-Covering ears or hiding from loud noises such as vacuum cleaners and crowded places, not noticing when people are talking to you, missing things that people say
Smell-Feeling disturbed or nauseated by smells that don't bother others, not noticing important smells like gasoline, loving strong scents and buying the strongest-smelling soaps and food available
Taste-Preferring to eat only bland or "kid food," eating extremely spicy and flavorful food while disliking anything bland, or disliking trying new foods
Touch-Being bothered by certain fabrics or clothes tags, not noticing when people touch you lightly or you are injured, or constantly running your hands along everything
Vestibular-Getting dizzy on cars or swingsets, or constantly running around and climbing things
Proprioceptive-Constantly feeling uncomfortable movements of your bones and organs, bumping into things, or not noticing when you are hungry or tired

Hello, how i can improve autistic to remember the study n answer properly to other
There’s some people who have more problems than others consider yourself lucky your on the better end of the spectrum,
Brian Davis I’ve seen people without autism hurt others. Go back to sleep
Brian Davis your initial comment was less relevant than my response to yours.
I don't get this. They just look like they enjoy being quiet and focusing. What wrong with that. Why is this called a "disorder"????
beautydiva110 that’s what I thought
Probably because when they grow up, those quirks of theirs can, but not always, exponentially increase. I agree, it shouldn't be called a disorder, but instead just a personality quality.
As a child I was described as a shy introvert. Never called autistic.

Nice, helpful video, Thanks... would love to watch further more..
I wish she wouldn't force him to use eye-contact.
They're clearly making an effort, but it's so disheartening to see the lack of empathy in the way these care-takers are treating their autistic charges and the way they characterize the disorder.
I fully agree!! :( The language & the way some of these behaviors are described really bothers me. Playing with a toy kitchen "appropriately"? Not responding because someone's speaking loudly & in your face? And yes - don't even get me started on the forced eye contact, or doing/saying things just the way the "teachers" want them to. (And trying to eliminate all stunning behavior, not just that which involves self-harm or harm to others.)
I'm not denying there are challenges associated with autism (particularly if other comorbid physical or mental conditions are present), but autistics are no less intelligent or aware than NTs. (In fact, sometimes a shutdown or hyperfocus occurs due to overstimulation, not from a refusal to cooperate.) :/ And there's nothing in these behavioral interventions that looks at the ways in which autistics can and do contribute to the world - because of their autism, not in spite of it. :(
Okay, soapbox done.

I Have been Autism for many years with Socialize with other people in School
The African American child reminds me so much of my son.
Interesting this explained it better, I guess I don't have autism, I often hear people explain it and they do so poorly where the symbols seem more general or wide ranging. This showed some great visual examples
I’m so happy a video like this exists! Yes I am a child, but I’ve found that u had things that were different then everyone else an what do you know! I have 2 traits from each one! This was extremely helpful and I’ll use it in the future for times when I need it!
in some cases I'VE experienced the same thing as the behavior of an autistic child when I was much younger.
I was born with autism but grew out of it. This was due to 3 reasons: 1- my autism was mild 2- I was given good quality therapy at a young age. 3- Luck
Hi Jack what would therapy involve may I ask? Could you have grown out of it without it you reckon?
You never had autism and never grew out of it you have Aspergers which isn’t Autism there is also no such thing as mild autism
Nah you just mask it
@@doyouhearthepeoplesing2 aspergers is part of the autism spectrum though.
You don't "grow out" of it.
You're either masking it without realising it or your therapy calmed down the symptoms.
Autism does *NOT* go away
Autism is not a disease. It is groups of traits that tend to appear together. People don't get them, people are born with them, and they will never go away. And that's pretty nice.
We don't always learn things in the same order as most people. Encourage autistic children to do what they enjoy and are good at.
We might have very different ideas about what would make a person uncomfortable, and because of that we seem to switch between emotionlessness and overreacting, even though we don't.
Encourage non-harmful stimming, like flapping, jumping, spinning, singing. Discouraging it leads to more harmful stimming, like scratching, head banging, hitting. If we can't relieve our stress and express ourselves, we get tired and miserable, we can develop illnesses, we can lose our appetite for days.
When autistic children seem to be doing nothing but repeating some little thing, they are not asleep or unconcious. Maybe they're thinking about the things that fascinate them. Maybe they're observing the behaviour of other children. Maybe they're observing the behaviour of the teachers. Maybe they're re-analyzing some event that happened years ago and learning something new about others and themselves. I'm going to keep doing this, no matter how old I get. Whatever we're doing with our minds, we're usually enjoying it.
For us, looking people in the eye is not connecting. It is hostility. Don't force us. Don't touch us without permission, it's disgusting, invasive, and for some of us it is basically sexual assault.
If you want to know the truth about autism, find blogs written by aspies themselves. Search sites like Tumblr and Wordpress. Don't Google anything autism related without advice from an aspie. If your child has autism, find aspies on the internet. Only we can truly speak for ourselves.
TLDR - We know more about ourselves than the professionals. Read our blogs
Absolutely agree in regards to the forced eye contact and touching. Accept our differences and stop trying to "cure" us and make us fit in by forcing us to be social or talk about irrelevant and mundane crap like "how was school?" If the kid wants to talk about firetrucks, ask him about them. To autists, small talk is basically the same script that people just repeat mindlessly to each other over and over again. We don't care and don't see any point or advantage to being fake and disingenuous in our conversations. If that makes us appear socially inept and unpopular, so what.
I'm 21 and got the official diagnosis over a decade ago. Most (if not all) of the things mentioned are me in a nutshell, as I did (and still do) the things mentioned.
I mostly have problems in the social area. I stutter and I have often have difficulty forming a complete sentence, describe a story, or explaining things to people without pausing to think. I usually avoid eye contact when speaking, because somehow, it's like a pressure to me. I usually look down.
Same. I had to go to speech therapy when I was younger since I couldn't speak that well and even now I struggle to form long sentences. Apart from that I'm as normal as they come.
I've always had this problem but I have social anxiety disorder. I was diagnosed in preschool with social anxiety disorder and selective mutism. Some of the symptoms of social anxiety disorder are similar to a few of the possible signs of autism
That’s social anxiety not autism.
A lot of children are obsessed with wheels of their toys. This is so normal
Exactly and that's why some children aren't diagnosed until later in life. Especially higher functioning children on the spectrum because ppl don't think they have autism
@@chelsea7852 truth. I’m high functioning, and I wasn’t diagnosed until I got into high school
I will probably panic if my future child won't show theese signs.
There are more things to be paniced about ... jst pray for of a healthy child !Amen
Well i have some of this things.The eye contact thing and looking up in the sky a lot.Social behavior is also very hard to me i prefer to use the internet in order to socialize.My verbal comunication skill is pathethic but i comunicate in a more visual way.I like to use my face a lot and have different facial expresions.
Same here I sometimes feel retarded, lol.

Good grammar dude
autism does not give us a bad name nor it defines a person character. lack of understanding and indifference of people is the cause. I wish people could educate themselves. if you can define normality you can define autism too. I can proudly say that I am autistic and I consider myself more normal than any human being on this planet.
you know what!. i'm not to here cause debate or argument . this world is full of ignorant people. no bodys perferct. we are all different and unique in our own ways. accept people differences. that's all i have to say.
in general, people like to blame others for their mistakes and flaws, because it's good way to amuse themselves and it makes them feel good. not that they care though. if you live your life trying to be perfectionist, life wouldn't treat you any good.
however, sorry for imperfection. have a nice life.
just wanted to add, I studied the philosophy of human psychology; therefore, I'm so familiar with these issues.
that's okay, that's your opinion and you are entitled to it. it really doesn't bother me anymore. regardless I am proud of who I am. and Do NoT wish to continue this discussion further. have a nice life. BYE
This is educational because I have seen people in the supermarket while shopping who have children who behave this way.
My hubby has autism. Yea hes In his own world. But The smartest person i know. He knows things that normal people would not know.
Awww hugs 🤗
I think i have Autism and crippling depression :(
Me, too
Me, too
Are the two related?
Ever since I was a kid I knew I was different from others, but I didn't know why. until recently I found out about autism, I must say other than this disorder itself the most thing that bothers me about it, is that people perception and how they labeling us. when i hear people labeling me as Special case i just wanna beat the crap out of them. is it safe to say autism never wins?
your family and near friends are all you need.,
including them. i just wanna beat the crap out of them!
wow! I must say I used to be bothered by the fact that people labeling me but these days the only thing bothers me is to deal with close minded people like. we live in 21 century with this kind of thinking the stigma of mental disorder never ends. I wish people could be more understanding and less judgemental of mental disorders by offering their support. you seem like an ignorant person. bad mouthing others will never make you more superior than the rest of us. over the last few years, i promised myself to offer my support and assistance to people suffering from any sort of mental disorders because the majority of those that are affected by mental health issue can not be an advocate for themselves. I'm not going to follow up with this conversation or reply back to you. I'm sure one day when you reach the maturity of someone your age. you will understand what I'm talking about. people need to educate themselves. without it the stigma of mental health issue will never ends.
have some RESPECT FOR YOURSELF PLZ. JUST BECAUSE OF OUR DIAGNOSES THAT DOESN'T MAKE US ALL THE SAME.
I'm in the same boat, just learned i was Autistic this year. but I have always felt like my family's never understood me and I may understood why now but it's still hard at times being around people who never get you
My nephew didnt talk until he was 3 and he never paid attention to us until he was 4 and now hes interactive social and overall an active child why is everything treated like a disorder nowadays
You mean he didn’t say even a word until age 3?
You really should look Into that, that’s a sign for something whether you think so or not. I mean I was put in therapy for not talking
Very interesting and truly iinformative
Thanks for all this valuable information
I have Autistic Spectrum Disorder diagnosed at 10. And can so relate to all of these, Mostly as I never make eye contact in a conversation!
You haven't grown out of it yet? Usually these social problems go away over time, for me, it was at the age of 10
No I haven't, I'm now 14 and I swear my autism is getting more worse! Nearly all of these I can relate to you!
James Cogdell no you dont grow out of it...i'm 29 and still have autism....my grandmother had it right up to age 86 when she past away....you can learn to cope and funtion to appease "normal people" but no it doesn't just go away and no you cannot cure it and yes people that hate us for being who we are should read more and talk less about things the understand nothing about.
Pj Jolene you don't grow out of it, I know that, but what I meant is do u you know how to act like a normal person. I usually use my autistic abilities as an advantage rather than a disadvantage.
so do I, I do not let Autism stop me being who I am, I explain to people that though i dont look at you, I am listening, once they gain my trust....not time specific...then i'm able to make eye contact....the only conceptions are with younger people, my nieces and nephews..and other Autistic people, when forced to make eye contact I shut down and become non verbal and display tick...or stims to compensate....yes I do act like a normal person..stressing on the word act...I am like an alien trying to be human ...sorry best comparison i have...to the extent that people i meet for the first few times think i'm totally normal. but around people who know me and accept me i'm gifted to be able to have them to share in good and bad parts of autism...and as you can tell I have a vast grasp of social skills and communication ie i can make my self understood with out a problem and no autistic person is stupid, just struggles to find who they are and where they fit in.
That asian boy is king of adorable
i have 2 classmates with Autism one of them flaps his ears repeatedly and talks a lot but he's cool and my other classmate is so smart he rubbs his thys repeatedly and he also talks kind of loud they're both cool
they also do noises like a car or something
+BigDaddy 69 an autistic kid had diarrhea on the carpet when I was in 8th grade
Very good training to share with general education.. Any handouts available?
Recently I have been interested in discovering what is Autism ? what are its causes ? and how can it be solved or cured , thank you for posting this phenomenal video which provides a lot of essential information about Autism , Now I realize that Parents also should observe their children as I will do when I have kids in the future , three major areas to observe:1- Social , 2- Communication ,3- repetitive and inflexible Behaviors , I know that Autistic People , students or children can succeed .
it can’t be caused or cured, nor does it need to be cured
Very informative video,.thank you for posting these signs, may god bless you fod your help.,,and god bless parents going thru this,
is it possible to have autism and then lose it because this reminds me of me in early elementary school but now I don't act like this although I am very weird
Thezebraherd jo
No it is not. There are a few small store managers who still believe that autism exists.
you cant lose it

The video clips are relevant and great examples of autistic symptoms and behaviors. It would be great if these video clips could be updated with a presentation overlay from DSM-5 with the revised diagnostic criteria. Looking for such a video with no luck to date.
This is so helpful and important. Awareness is so important.
A lot of this happens with my friend. He never pays attention, he talks a lot, makes a noise, and stays on one topic. He is a smart guy though, and I think he will grow up to be a great man!
Lol he has no future
Lol, you're a fucking douchebag.

For heaven's sake. So much cruel things in the comments. Man, some people need to do an entrance exam before using the internet. It would stop all that unneeded hate speech and idiotic trolling.
Congrats, you got somebody mad! Now you're happy? Okay? Now go troll elsewhere. Okthxbai.
yeah the world is fucked up
i remember when i was a kid that i loved to watch things spin, just that.
Very nice video
Thanks for the most informative and well demonstrated and explained about Autism. Thanks for all the effort. God bless you.
I feel bad for people with this disorder
Autism isn't a good thing or a bad thing so don't feel sorry for them we are just different
I have autism and I'm ok no need to feel bad about people with autism
my daughter had autism and she is very clever than the other kids in her age
they dont feel it. i dont feel it...
SuperPuffleWade you shouldn't, it's not bad :)
never EVER force an autistic child to make eye contact....why are people so intent on making us "normal" its causes a psychical problem to make eye contact, this unit thing is great at labeling but really bad at showing parents/carers how to interact with an autistic child.....I am 29 and I dont make eye contact unless I trust you, when people tried to force me....it made me worse....let the child decide if they want to look at you and when.....forcing them is child abuse...
Ya, that's annoying for any person.
What is Reddit? Do you know the signs?

For me my diagnosis was Asperger syndrome I was diagnosed with it aged 7 and now I’m 24 as of 2021 and the condition is still here within me and it’s not gone away
So nice
I'm asian and my heart goes out to that little asian kid, he seems to not be as bad as the others, he can do it with our innate IQ being higher onto recovery. Good luck little guy
lol k
Unfortunately with his innate small Asian penis his difficulties in maintaining relationships will be increased.
Btw dude do you know what iq is??
yuch1102 I'm not making fun of the fact that he has a small penis at the age of 6, I'm just pointing out the fact that his penis will still be the same size when he's an adult. Which will cause problems for him on the relationship front.
Ryan Davies how much lower can you go scumbag? answer the question
I was a clever little fucker when it came to escaping out of the house. I was very expert at unlocking all locks. I was only three years old! Man, for all the shit my mom went through. I don't think I could ever take care of an autistic kid, especially knowing that I have it myself.
+Grassy Cobra Geez! shut up.

lol. Me too.
I'm so stoned that, whilst watching, this I started to think I have autism. But to be honest I am just a sociopath.
Really
same story ...hitting my g pro vape and thinking that same shit ...im sociopath too but i had scziophrenia OCD when i left weed for 2 months ..like weed induces some sort of psychosis but man now im stoned 24x7 and im the happiest chillest functional nigga haha
Underrated God that's not something to say to a sociopath unless you have a death wish cause he will find you
Alexander Moss I'm not afraid to die im also not afraid to kill sociopaths
Underrated God wow you know what this reminds me of franklin vs trevor rap battle when you watch it tell me and as you are watching remember you are franklin
Very good basic understanding of audit ism
Wow your explanation is so great
*shudders* still cringing over the teeth grinding 😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫😫
2:09 that girl is basically me to most people lol
lmao
so learned that I have autism when I'm high
+KittenYT fuck you
Uh.. no
+Volgarr AE, the way to truly understand autism is to get people high and note the differences
I don't think that's how it works
it helps me
And to back you I would like to add that my daughter was developing great up until her 12 month needles, even some of her development were told prior was advanced. Now here I sit almost two years after those vaccines awaiting a three hour assessment to find out exactly where on the spectrum my daughter is. I'm not saying vaccines were the cause but after those one she regressed in most of her physical progress aside from walking.
The vaccines had nothing to do with it
My little sister has autism and I was watching so that I can understand about her more
