- I HATE not being in control of a stressful situation! That's the worst part about being 8 hours away for sure. Everything was fixed and I didn't even need to be there...my wife was right again.
For as long as I can remember Abbie has been working on identifying people by name. It's certainly something she has struggled with although it doesn't really hinder her life so there probably isn't any real motivation to learn it. I have always thought the confusion stemmed from comprehending that people have names and most of us have more than one name (for example: dad, husband, Asa, pops, insert expletive)

People ive longer when they take naps?! Challenge accepted! I'm gonna outlive all you suckers.
Haha
I have raised 2 daughters... 2 grandchildren one who is on the spectrum and have cared for my parents palliative care in my home. I have NEVER been able to afford a holiday nor will I ever. I have not even been able to put anything aside for retirement and I am 60 yrs old. My 2 grandchildren are now 20 and 22 and are still living with us. Money isn't everything. I have no regrets. I would sacrifice it all again
I became disabled at a fairly young age (30s, am 37 soon to be 38) and will never have any retirement since I cannot work anymore. Life happens and sometimes you just have to do the best you can. One of my brothers is severe, nonverbal autistic. My parents are caring for both of us in their 70s. It sucks, but it is the best we can do at the moment.
Beautiful ❤
Two successful grown adults can do whatever they want with their money. It's nobody's business. The world is different now.
Not sure if you realize, there are Day Services for your parents to attend during daytime hours. And so goes for your grand daughter on the spectrum.
I have a UA-cam channel, I discuss special needs,and what it's like living as a special needs family.
@@marcellagamble6633 I live in Canada. Yes they do. All at a cost.
As a renter most landlords dont' fix things until they are at their worst, as most landlords don't believe in upkeep until they forced to. Most renters can't afford repairs, so they have to wait till the landlord finally responds to them, and once the landlord does the repairs, they up the rent.
I think most people talk about the horror stories with rental properties and don’t talk about the good landlords. This for example is the opposite case. The owners couldn’t get ahold of the renters so they could get into the place to fix the leak. The renters never called the landlords. The owners/landlords fixed the leak and sent a crew to my place to repair the drywall and water damage.
@@fatheringautismThe issue here is the regulations that stop an owner/tradesmen entering a property to do essential/urgent work when tenants refuse to be available. It's a nightmare here in Ireland, the 'wrong' rights are given to both landlords and tenants and it just leads to endless problems and disputes.
@fatheringautisAw that was nice of the landlord to do thatm
@@conceptacasserly1360Not good
Since I been a home owner for 3 years. I have learned alot. One being, most landlords have home warranty insurance, to repairs items inside their tentants homes or apartments, if something gets broken.
I have 2 home warranty insurance for all my appliances, if anything get broken.
Far as Asa ceiling was damaged, due to water leaks,most home warranty insurance paids for replacing ceiling damage, if they have to break the ceiling out.
I believe that what happen to your situation Asa,the landlord had the crew from the company,repair yours,cause it's in his contract
Dad = music
Mom = cereal
Lol Isaiah should be wrestle 😂
The landlord of the upper apartment needs to get the bill for all the repairs!
There are also laws against being an absentee landlord.
Asa “It’s for you, it’s a floor mat.” Is the most dad thing I’ve ever heard you say 😂
Asa with the plastic couch cover 😂😂😂 I was dying 😂😂😂. Abbie great job with the photo book 🎉❤ Don't stress Asa that's like sitting in a rocking chair 😂 My dad used to say 😂
Wouldnt it be easier to take the folders out of the binder and ask her to match them that way? Maybe add Summer and nanny and her other grandparents and friends as well
Yeah I think she's confused and dosen't know what to do
I think your idea is much better for her to understand
I had a aunt that had plastic on her furniture, before u enter her house u have to take your shoes off and take her piece of newspapers and put it right on the plastic before you sit down on the couch.
I like how Abbie is associating her favorite things with the ones she loves.
I understand your wife's feelings on your health in 100 degrees. My dad and step dad both died at 46. We all held our breaths when our brother and husbands were that age. We love you boys so much! Just taking care of you!
I'm surprised it would cost you anything to fix the damage. That happened to my home in Australia and it was covered completely by the other persons insurance.
@@simoneletzbor5102 How is 'covered by someone else's insurance' more expensive than 'pay to do it yourself'?
I would have been there on day 1 of the leak. Water causes so much damage. Make sure you get a claim number from the other owner so you can get your cost and labor paid.
I love my naps and take them as much as I can. I will live forever then lol. My son graduated from highschool today. He did great walking the stage and we got to leave as soon s he got his diploma. He wanted the cap and tie off of him lol. He also won an award as well. I'm so proud of him.
I'm stressed too. I am the president of my condo association. We got what we believe was straight-line wind for 5 minutes on Saturday. About 1/3 of our property has extensive tree damage. We got the estimate today. $35,000. Ouch. The tree guy believes we have over 40 trees that were damaged, down, or need to come down. Of course, insurance covers zero of the cost. Luckily, the trees all blew one direction and away from all but one building. We have very little damage to our buildings.Just 2 spots of siding.
What about photo name and sign language of dad s parents and moms parents abbeys grandparents And my other idea is dad and mom learning sign language like mom dad bro abbey yes no basics so abbey sees it and learns to do it too and maybe dad and mom asking the therapist on how to do sounds. Like mmmmm mom da da da dad and maybe being in therapy sessions with abbey where u both get taught things to help abbey. Just ideas for you. As I notice she sees a lot of maybe signing things to her as well as having pictures and that in iPad is all part of it maybe the sign language for break time And useing numbers in sign language or she uses her iPad but my idea is there be times when she not have I pad and needs to sign language what she after.
First of all, never wait until afternoon to do work if the temperature is high. It will only get marginally cooler. Instead, you need to get up early (6am) and work in the early AM until 9-10am at the latest. 5-6am is typically when the daily temperature is at its lowest and mid-late morning is when the temperature increases rapidly, only descending slightly until sunset.
I’d ditch the ball cap and wear a head band to keep the sweat out of your eyes) or some kind of wide brimmed hat with ventilation.
Asa, loved your hair on the sofa. Loved Abby managing that box and just shut the door on passing.
The cat looks so fluffy on the back of the couch
In an emergency he can turn the water off
Honestly: how profitable is owning an AirBNB that is so far for you to travel to? The fact that it is a MFH (multiple family home) that is rented out in sections by two different owners is in itself a problem IMO which is perfectly illustrated here. Perhaps your neighbor can buy you out and save you future headaches and expenses like this?
It’s actually pretty good. This wasn’t an expense because the repairs were handled by the upstairs owners. We are coming up on a year of having it as an Airbnb. After all expenses, mortgage, repairs, cleaners, etc we ended up at $8k profit for the year. The real profit is the property is essentially free. My only goal was that it pay for itself and it has out performed that metric. It’s a wise asset to have in the trust when we are dead and gone. The condo’s value has done nothing but increase since we bought it. Im sure we will sell it at some point but immediately invest the profit into a higher value property, rinse and repeat.
I hope the repairs were done by trustworthy, qualified professionals.
Asa thanks for showing Abbie doing the pictures of people. I find it so intriguing that some people with Autism &/or developmental delay can struggle with recognising faces. I personally have hydrocephalus & it affects my memory, organisation, planning & decision making so people I know well such as family I can remember faces but new people I might not recognise them until I've seen them multiple times. 🤔
Sell it! Too stressful being that far away…
I remember my grandparents had plastic on their sofa and chairs. When as a little kid when I would try to sit on the chair I would slde off. 😅😅 They were smokers and their clear plastic started turning yellow. That really brought back some fun memories when I was a kid......😊❤
Why isn’t the condo association taking action with those owners?
You should contact the association immediately.
I recommend you ask condo unit owner for their insurance info and whether they've started a claim. Be sure and save all receipts for anything related to the leak to try for reimbursement but ideally speak directly to their claims dept about repair coverage and potential loss of income in the interim.
Priscilla said “we” when he said getting old 😂😂😂
Asa no no i'm older then you ..
.😂😊😂😊😂😊.
It’s 83 here in Chicago and our high today is 85. We get 71 tomorrow and 79 on Saturday.
Thank you for this information
You could also put the picture on colored paper in the beginning when they are younger to help match them and learn faster .
Great job Abbie, with the photo matching book!
Glad the condo got fixed.
What would you do if Abbie ever got lost she couldn't talk to police
The look Abby gave you when you were having her match up the pictures, was like are you kidding me I know all this stuff.
lol I’m so confused. I guess I’ve forgotten the set up of the NC house. I thought Isaiah’s house was 2 story, and I didn’t realize there was a house on top.
Our unit is 2 story but there’s a single story unit on top.
@@fatheringautism I guess I’ve never paid attention. That’s so crazy. Glad everything worked out with the leak
Abigail, It is 140 degrees outside! Girl, aren't your feet on fire?!
That's funny you say that about the Plastic Couch Cover. When I was 10 yrs old, my friend's Mom, our Neighbor had a Plastic cover on her couch. I felt the same way. 😂
Wouldnt it be easier to move the cars while you do it
Smells like a negligent situation…hoping you won’t need a lawyer and the upstairs owners do what’s right 🤞🏻
Can you possibly contact the landlord of the upstairs neighbour ..´? They may be on vacation and don’t know …lbut if someone else is caring for the house .,they could be of help?
She doesn’t seem to understand how the filing photos works, without you doing it for her. What’s the goal in doing that? Just curious. You always have a goal in mind and I’m even confused why this you feel is an important task.
Grab a cooler put in fruit and snack pickup a sandwich at subway and some cold drinks and ice then you can eat anytime while driving or working…but Asa you must take care of yourself and your health and nutritional needs.please….you are very important to your family…
My step grandmother had the plastic on her living room furniture. I hated it because you stuck to it if you had a dress on.
water damage is so frustrating...our neighbors house flooded into ours and ruined our wood floors. we were out of hourse for like six months while they repaired everything.
I'm glad everything worked out at the rental. Transitioning from summer to school year is so tough! Every year!🥰🥰 Have a great Wednesday everyone!!💚💚
Abbie so funny, she looked at that box like You expect me to lift that?😂Maybe its hard for her to distinguish the difference in You"ll looks because y"all look so much alike.😄
boy do i know about a leaky ceiling. you have NO IDEA how i SO know about a leaky ceiling. and with my place, it was the roof leaking somewhere and the water building up in MY apartment before opening up. the ceiling had to be cut open, wood and fiberglass insulation replaced, the new gyprock and plaster and painting. took the workers three solid days. what a mess.
She clearly doesn't understand nearly as much as they think she does. That entire activity with the binder was completely beyond her.
❤❤❤❤❤
Hey beautiful family and Abigail beautiful girl I love you sweetie and I love you too baby girl
You will have to replace drywall and maybe more.
Sell
Your not getting any younger Asa and the heat can be very dangerous for us …she cares
Do you have a P.O. Box I mailed you a card and letter
love abbie is doing good! i love watching her grow !
❤❤❤❤❤
I napped a lot in my 28 yrs of life 😅
If I was you do dry walls
We have Weather Tech floor covers in our vehicles. We love them!
Asa I can understand the landlord of his tenttants,not knowning about the water leak.
He needs to find a way,to make those tentants of his,pay for that
Hello
Sell that house, Asa, Cilla!
Asa- if water was leaking for several days, you'll do well to prepare for insulation and drywall replacement! Think about this: if it's not flooding, like a burst pipe, it had to be very waterlogged before being noticeable in your unit. Not trying to stress you worse. Also, if the damage is from the unit upstairs, it may be up to the landlord to cover your costs. I'm not sure about in that state, but it was the liability of the owner where the water came from. Your insurance agent will be able to tell you more. My ultimate advice, get a water damage experienced contractor! You want a licensed professional ensuring that there's no residual water or mold issues.
In the therapy family picture book you need to print different pictures of each of the family members. She know y’all but it different pictures of y’all. Make where she has to focus more on pictures. After letting her go thru the book to let her know where each family member is the gradually add different shots of each family member.
Those are different pictures of us
No, they are all color photos
Likely Abbie is Assimilating Music with you Asa because It's something common she asks you for?
The person who owns the unit upstairs is responsible for the cost of repairs to your place. Send them the receipts and anything else associated with the fix.
Man. I wish I could go but my work conference is Aug fifth to the ninth. Hopefully there will be another one that will work better. Enjoy yourselves.
I’m so stinkin proud of Abby. She’s so smart and so sassy. She has the cutest, funniest personality…grinning at herself when she doesn’t want to do something etc. she’s doing better on stairs, she’s made so much progress and that’s thanks to her support team (family, friends, carers). I can also tell when she’s “complaining” now too. 😂😂 Like when she got the box inside. She had to figure it out and got impatient 😂. So she let everyone know about it. I love that girl. (And Isaiah too)
Get someone to do it for you
I think you're doing a great job. Abby is such a good sport in all this. So many different tasks for her to do.
Treat for 5days
she's so cute
I love that Pic book
U guys still receive mail to the PO box
They shut it down a while ago. There was a vlog about it: I think the title was something like ‘have to shut it down’?
Is Abbie being home schooled again? You guys do a great job with her. 👍
It's 91 in Tennessee
Water
🌸 💙💙💙 💙💙💙
Love you Abby
How do they not know I remember those days it would be 90 out I would be sitting on the couch and I would be so hot 😊
Evening
Water...why we sold our condo! I'm sure you understand.
Not only that... But if you get mold... That will be a mess
if its upstairs flat that has the leak its there responcibily to do all the repairs not u
Hi abbie and family,abbie you did amazing job matching im so proud of you and keep it up,hope y'all are having a wonderful wednesday and stay safe out there❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗
Time to go swimming 🏊♀️ and cool off
105 in Mississippi today🥵
I like your show
Could just be as simple as them over filling the bathtub. From the overflow… I had that in some apartments I rented. Residents thought that was a drain
Hmm, then your tub wasn’t plumbed correctly. The overflow is a secondary drain that leads to the regular in drain.
@@fatheringautism that’s apartments for you lol
Abbie is so smart😊
Insurance
Yooooo!! What’s up Abby!!! And cilla, you are a whole vibe girl, just saying
Hi Abby
Hey Abbie
From where the original leak sprung from = = = that is the cause - if it extended into yours - It is their responsibility. Their Insurance. But IF they contest - Your Insurance will claim from them. And grab back that money for you but also make them claim responsibility.
Love you all so much Moss family all the way and I just love how Priscilla says I'm so excited
Seems like the owner of the upstairs unit should be liable for your costs, especially since they haven't done anything about the leak in their unit. Maybe call the HOA?
Can't you ever just leave her alone!?
Absolutely not.
Don’t watch the videos
I love Abby❤ and I love the family
Next time have Cilla come help
She mever does anything
@@vickiyoung5651that’s just rude. Of course she does! This channel isn’t about Cilla, it’s Fathering Autism. It’s about Abbie and Asa. We actually don’t see you do anything either … does that mean you just sit in front of your screen all day making silly assumptions?
Next time you should keep comments to yourself
@@vickiyoung5651actually she does. But keep hating 😂
