      @@jessicag630 there's a tonne that he uses, positive reinforcement, repetition, etc. This is a good man using good techniques, he built a relationship with this girl and never pushed her to deliver more than she could offer. He identified parts of her personality and tailored his technique to suit her, not to suit any theories or scientific school of thought.

    This is insane: The 60s we’re a lot more efficient than now, I was 3 when I got my therapist and when I turned ten, I am still misbehaving meanwhile that girl who has low functioning autism and induced by trauma went from literally a cute and chaotic girl to a very obedient, angelic and behaved child at age 10!

    There is emotional development happening here that I haven’t understood until quite recently myself. I’m 26 but I’ve only started going under my blanket as a means to feel secure because security is comforting. I mean I can ask for hugs too now but self soothing is a very good skill to learn and that’s what I believe that amazing doctor is fostering in that little child. An allowance of emotions and space when needed. Letting them set their own pace so they can make choices for themselves independently

    Oh, my niece... I can see my niece in this video, although the parents have never taken her to get properly diagnosed and "treated", if possible. There might be some denial involved, however I think is just neglect, and she is 7 years of age. The reason that my niece is more functional than Josie, and this is something that I think to myself, is because of the environment she's a part of. She has another almost 9 year old sister living with them all times, goes to school and has a community around her, like grandparents and aunts. The girls also has a 12 year old brother, and an almost 20 years old brother but from my brother's first marriage. They all get along really really well. I also believe, which something sad to say, is that she and her sister had been somehow neglected and not properly cared by the mother (father too, he is my brother), which is something that brings a lot of pain to us to have to admit it, but there is nothing that we can do about it. The mother simply carries them around like a bag, do not have any basic routine like meals or bed time, no discipline or order, and on top of that, she constantly yells, gets mad and blame them for their "misbehavior", although the girls are begging for order, routine and proper care and attention. The mother cares only for herself, to the point of serving herself food first and letting the girls hungry until she gets tired of the crying and so something about it. Not to mention that she spends all day on the phone too :-(
    The girls are pretty much raising themselves at this point. We feel helpless and at loss. In Brazil, the law will never take the kids away from the mother. Believe me, my mother has consulted with a lawyer but they have discouraged her in face of the bureaucracy and the complications of the case.

      She wasn’t there 24/7; the previous episode mentioned she got to see her family on the weekends.
      He’s actually a great therapist and it’d make more sense to try to understand and influence more positive behavior from an earlier age while under the care of a professional. Just because the environment would be “familial” doesn’t mean it’d be better, this kind of thinking is why so many people are diagnosed late in life if ever. And by then it’s very hard to change your behavior.

      @@lonnaproctor9547 Mothers and fathers don’t have the same understanding as a therapist such as this one. That’s why many give up their children as soon as they learned they had problems, physical or mental.
      Also, if the therapist just visited on the weekend, the therapy wouldn’t necessarily stick because it could be undone unless the family completely supported his suggestions. And as for the tolerance and patience; that’s what the therapist had. YOU don’t know how the family would’ve reacted and treated her, either. There are many cases of familial neglect because the child couldn’t conform to their standards.
      And yeah, maybe I don’t know exactly what would’ve been the absolute best for this particular child but as someone who does have autism I could genuinely say I wish I had a therapist at a very young age as opposed to being targeted by my own family.

    Placing a child into care would not have been easy for the family, but a child like Josie left in the family home would have either been left to her own divises and recieved beign neglect, or punished, when everything became to much and had a meltdown.
    Offering Josie's family hope that she could return home with tools to interact with her family and be somewhat independent would have been a God send.

One twin can have a learning disability when the other doesn’t. Identical twins are one egg that split into 2 and once split they are no longer one person ..they have the same dna but 2 people even with identical dna are not clone copies who are the identical in every single way.

And the answer is drugging her, aged 6. She practically tells her therapist using charades! Acts & sounds out her own abuse taking place. And like all, too good father figures, would rather ignore all these blatently obvious signs - than face the truth.

    I watched video 1 and none of what that child was doing was abnormal..many infants/toddlers have issues with not wanting to chew. I have seen many kids who gag on the texture of certain foods and only want to eat things like yogurt or soup. Babies can have sensory issues that are not considered abnormal for that child.
    Child develop at different rates even identical twins. It’s when the sensory issues start to hinder their learning…some kids like to make messes. I’m not saying this child isn’t Autistic because I’ve never seen the child obviously but I’ve seen so many kids do these things and they weren’t/aren’t autistic.
    My son hated writing couldn’t color he scribbled I also have a similar issue with my hands/grip..I don’t like to write it hurts..my son hated shoes, tags in his clothes, couldn’t hold his pencil properly until 3rd grade but was advanced in every other area. My niece would chew anything and would gag and throw up when fed foods that to her had a gross texture and she is extremely smart and not autistic..I’ve noticed on UA-cam suddenly everyone is autistic ..I find it odd that someone would suddenly be diagnosed as autistic at an adult age..if a person is shy or displays any kind of self soothing behavior they are now autistic? Someone told my friends daughter that because she plays with her ear when upset that she is autistic..i think it’s ridiculous..I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have some type of self soothing mannerisms..we aren’t robots. It’s just that some self soothing like thumb sucking is seen as babyish and children are encouraged to stop but something like humming or playing with your ear is not as noticeable and so parents don’t encourage kids to stop ..even adults engage in self soothing
    I have seen kids crying hysterically over stepping on sand..when they first realize that it’s different than grass or cement or the floor it scares them. Some kids are afraid of water..I have seen kids terrified of car washes..kids will be kids..sometimes people expect all kids to develop at the same rate and some kids just need extra attention, extra playtime, extra reassurance..they just need more than other kids. I have seen so many adults maybe video calling themselves autistic..that they just figured out at age 29 they are autistic..I think if someone is autistic..you probably would have known before age 29

I've seen the behaviors in my children that people with autistic children saw as autistic behavior...it's just children's behavior, it's normal. Although that one mom who told me my kids might be autistic has an autistic child but he is very intelligent. He loves music.They are merely exploring the world around them at their own pace. As long as it's not interfering with school or any relationships like for example being able to make friends.

Watching Josie being able to eat a more balanced diet IS crucial for her development. Were the side effects worth this? Only Josie can tell us.

    She needs her mom. She's showing signs of abandonment issues and the inability to connect with others in addition to the autism. How sad mom abandoned her and her sisters.

      A good parent with good education of autism is much better of course. She may or may not have had any abandonment issues, perhaps depending how bad her disconnect was. I can tell you however that her inability to connect with others isn't separate from her being on the spectrum. That is definitely a symptom for "some" with autism, some to a worse degree than others.
      I am wondering if how she was treated "off camera" didn't cause some of her issues seen in part 2, which is as far as I've gotten. See, they used to and God help some still do, use punishment as a means to stop their "stimming". Stimming is how they self regulate and shouldn't be stopped unless it's harming them. In this and some other cases, other safer, calmer, etc ways to "stim" can usually be taught.

    I'm sorry for her that they don't try to find out why she is for example picking up the cigarettes. Why not respect her needs and help her crate an environment that fits. Also she clearly wanted to do something with the paper scraps on the floor and he didn't let her. Why? I wanted to know what she planned

    Why can't she bite, I know she has a "texture issue" or something with the cookies & yogurt. Was that because she can't bite?

    • @ohrenata
      @ohrenata 3 роки тому +4

      I guess for her is more soothing to feel the texture of the food. Must be the sensory input or she doesnt enjoy the feeling of biting into the cookie.
      I myself dont like to bite a lot of foods, it makes me anxious tho so I just cut it or take pieces with my hands. Its not sensory or anything I just dont like it. I get anxious thinking this or that might break my teeth.

    • @navioconnell6938
      @navioconnell6938 3 роки тому +12

      An anxiety over the texture. The fear of firmer things in the mouth and against the teeth "freaked" her out, and her brain had no way of explaining it to her. So refusal of biting was her coping mechanism. I experienced the same til 5 years old. She knows HOW to bite, she didnt like the way it felt or the results. I am lucky to be extremely high functioning, through 30 years of therapy. I still refuse certain foods because of texture.

      Sometimes children need some pushing to do things, otherwise this girl might just hide in her bed all day and do nothing.. which is not healthy for her. Her family seem bad and she might have been neglected or abused if she stayed with parents who did not want her.

      While I agree that shots can cause this I also know that there is another factor. I'm not sure if it's a genetic factor or environmental or both.

    • @catlinboy
      @catlinboy 3 роки тому +1

      I mean, surely it's more likely that autism is a combination of genetic and in utero conditions, as well as environmental factors, with lots of things making it more likely but no one thing being a definitive cause.
      I saw on another video of the twins that they were two of four girls born in three years, and likely suffered some emotional and physical neglect in their first year, and the mother left the home when they were still toddlers. That's not to say that their environment caused Josies autism, just that it may have left her more isolated within herself and less able to garner attention from her parents who were suffering themselves. The parents also commented that she was withdrawn and noticably different to her sister from birth, which just goes to show, that if they even did get vaccinated, then it didn't cause autism.
      Also, vaccines can't cause autism. And considering how many different vaccines there are and have been over the years, don't you think that it would be odd if they all happened to cause the same neurodivergent condition? It would be like if diarrhoea meds, and pain relief, and cough meds all happened to cause epilepsy or something.
