Wonderful to hear such a positive outcome. My little grandson is nearly 3 and is non verbal, he clearly understands language but doesn’t say anything yet. Your video is comforting to those of us who worry for our little loved ones ❤️
Hello, Speak oil, Smoothies with dark leafy greens and veggies, vitamin D, kefir for healthy gut it has probiotics and Empowerplus powder supplements by Truehope, ABA one on one therapy and much prayer. Constantly talk to your child and explain what is occurring. What this gentleman is saying is what I do with my granddaughter. Shalom
Is he able to use signs with you? Lovely peaceful way to communicate x
@@emilyb5557 we’re all learning how to sign. I was at Legoland with my grandson yesterday and he signed to me that he was “finished” for the day. My heart melted and I took him straight home. I find him a fascinating and beautiful little boy, his gentle nature and the way he copes with the world is humbling 😘
@@emilyb5557 I wish I would have been taught sign language as a kid
Frankly I think there's zero valid excuses for not teaching it to kids as early as possible in the school system (obviously kids with disabilities that impact their ability to learn/use signing should be accommodated appropriately and individually) it's far too valuable and I'm certain a lot more people would live their lives nearly if not entirely mute if this were the norm
@@dorothyronan8220 yall supporting him by learning/teaching sign language is incredible he may not realize how massive of a move that is in society as of now but as he gets older and encounters situations where people have to get translators in order to communicate with him properly he'll start to see how much love went into the decision to learn communication his way
Great job! ^.^
What a great mom.Thank you and God Bless you.
You are so kind! Thank you!
God bless you...Lot of love from India 🇮🇳
Thank you so much. I'm going to try this with my daughter.
Let me know if it works!
Great testimony. Songs helped motivate me as well.
Thank you! Motivational songs motivate me to work out o
Excited for this….
I hope you enjoy it and learn something from it!
Intensive interaction is important to learn . Videos free on line
Oh now I have it, as my aon looks to where i am pointing i can teach him in this way thanks so much
Very inspiring 🤎🌞
At that time ur mom done therapies.. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much for sharing your experience and helping us understand more. I am so grateful for you.
How can someone read twenty new books everyday? We don't live in a palace or library. Thank you for sharing your story
My son is 9 n still doesn't speak. He just repeats certain words when he feels like it or gets upset
Mine is almost 22. I’m scared he will never learn. He used to talk then he stopped😢. What can I do???
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I am trying to learn all that I can to help my granddaughter who has been categorized as level 3 Autism. My question is, when you say nonverbal, does that mean you didn't speak at all? My granddaughter does udder some words like "Mommy" and "Stop." Her vocabulary for the most part, going on 3 years is still non existent.
Always knew non verbals were faking it.
How does one know if speech is possible? I care for an 8 year old autistic child. She can point to her nose to tell us she is thirsty or her lips if hungry. As her nurse, I would like to help her gain other signs or speach if possible. Her grandmother has told me she has attempted words in the he past, but as of now, she's locked into a world of grunting, howling, etc.. she has no concern for proper behavior and could be a danger to herself or others. I have only worked with her for 2 months, so it's relatively new for me. I am trained in psych, but not autism.
She recently moved to this are of Florida, and her caseworker hasn't done much of anything to get her ABA services. I think she needs ABA, OT, ST at the minimum. Any suggestions that could help her are welcome.
Hello, she may be two old for some ABA services but you can call. They provide grants to pay for services. Watch Dr Berg video on autism. We used Speak oil, Empowerplus powder by Truehope a vitamin mineral supplementation designed for the central nervous system. If she likes smoothies, leafy green veggies/ fruits and kefir for probiotics. My granddaughter liked Blippi, nursery rhymes, coco melon on IPad. Start with her copying you making noises like lala, ah, then move into words. There are videos on UA-cam that can help you or call an Autism center and ask a therapist. Shalom
Thank you for your advice. I have a son that is almost 4. He isn't considered non-verbal, however, he doesn't conversate very well. He really tries though.
have fun with that.
Hello, Dr Berg video on autism is very informative. He gives recommendations on vitamins that help the brain. Speak oil helped my granddaughter along with Empowerplus powder by Truehope a vitamin mineral supplementation for the central nervous system, smoothies with leafy green veggies/ fruits with kefir for probiotics, and much prayer. If you live in the United States ABA Therapy is an awesome program and they provide grants to pay for services. Shalom
@@CM-sd1rw have fun with that? 🤔 Whatever that means.
@@thewordrappergma7713 I've heard of Dr. Berg. I love his videos.. didn't know he covered autism. Definitely will look into it again. I was told that my son really didn't need ABA, but speech and ot. I've always been hesitant about it. Thank you for the info. 💜
If your mum is able to it might be really interesting to do an interview on this with her? Very useful positive video and what a fab dedicated mum 💕
1. Study how language was/ is acquired
2. Pointing practice- books, pictures, objects, people,...
3. Teach me language curriculum
4. Let child find things
5. Sing songs. Fill in the blank in nursery rhymes
6. Read lots of books
Great note taking!
You missed one.
A MOTHER who sacrificed a part of her life for her child.
Thank you so much. I have a nonverbal 7 year old who understands so much and used to have about 5 words that weren’t clear, but now only says 1 word ‘mom’ when frustrated. It’s very difficult to find verbal people who were once nonverbal at the typical speaking age to share their stories. I appreciate it so so much. ❤️
Thanks for your sharing your story. You have provided positive autism learning hope for many autistic children and even adults. I'm a struggling verbal autistic and like that you are helping those people from your direct experiences.
What a wonderful mom!
The key point here is definitely your mom. A lot of moms with Autistic kids rely so much on others for their child's education.
Thank you for sharing this! As a father of a "non verbal" autistic 8 yr old son ( with lots of work from him his mom and I and aba and speech therapies and he can say roughly 13-25 words now and continuing to be able to say more. Ive subscribed and shared you channel on our non profit page aatap as well :) thank you for doing this videos and im going to look into the learning curriculum that helped you 😊
Where are you located
@joselinemukandama8022 north east Ohio what's up?
Hi! Will, Thank you so much for sharing this. I feel, I'm on the right direction. My son has slowly becoming more communicative. I love how much you appreciate your mom. Your mom is truly proud of you!💛🌞
@Wesley Hinson : thank you for your comment! What type of herb helps? Would you mind to share?
@@USCmusic2008 only therapies work no herbs
I was non-verbal until I was about 5 years old. But I was and still am highly intelligent. Although I couldn't speak, I noticed and learned where my father was driving when we drove to my grandma. He always drove the same route. Then I once tried to do it myself on my little bycicle. But a 4 years old boy at a busy road? That is very frightening! Something could have happened to me. I was taken to the police and I came back home. My father built a fence, so that I could not do that again.
At 5 there are many things that I learned in a very short time!: speaking, writing and reading. I think I already could listen, that is: I could understand spoken language. I learned reading and writing, before I went to school.
I am Dutch. At 8 I learned a few German words, at 11 I learned Russian. My development went extremely fast! I also played organ, although I was a little boy, so that was dificult, until I became taller. I was considered as a gifted child.
Now I am in a situation that I am still gifted, almost 57 years old. But quite a lot of people considers me as developmentally challenged. Especially my employer limits me. He doesn't allow me to develop and I am not allowed to ask things about the organisation where I work.
Outside my work my development doesn't stop. I can still learn things I want, also on the social area. I am no longer socially challenged, can communicate very precisely and I love to make jokes with colleagues and family. I love traveling, either by flying or driving. I can drive everywhere (I have been driving at the right side and at the left side of the road). I speak Dutch, English, Esperanto and German fluently. At a lesser degree I speak Afrikaans, French, Russian and Japanese. I love languages!
God bless you! U give me hope.
I love these stories, thank you. Gives me hope for my 3 year old.
I try to sing sons and my autistic son just covers my mouth 😂 like songs on UA-cam he’s enjoying, I’ll try to sing along. 😂😂
My son is 5 but still non-verbal. He has level 3 autism. How can I help him?... 😢
Mine is 11 still can’t say basic words 😕
Have you tried to see a homeopathic doctor for consultation? They might have him go through heavy metal detoxing and other things. Many parents claim that it has helped their children. I just started about a month ago so nothing to report yet.
Detox and keep stimulating brain growth
Were can I get Dr oyalo harb
You may look into Nemechek protocol, it works well for my son.
This gives me so much hope for my baby. These are the same things, me and my son father have been doing with my son since he was born. He is 3 and knows his abc and 123 in spanish and in english. He is finally able to say some words.❤❤❤ Thank you so much for this video. It feels good to know I'm doing something right with my baby for his autism
Don't lose hope, and keep up the great work!
I understand how hard, and heartbreaking, it can be - my Son was non-verbal until he was almost 5.
The key for us was early intervention, speech therapy, music, reading, art therapy (especially working with clay/play dough, those products had a wonderfully calming effect for my Son, making it easier to transition into concentration-based activities and learning), Lego, and sight prompts (pictures with the descriptive word underneath).
Every child is different, so I obviously can't say what would be the most beneficial for your baby and family, but I really do wish you the best of luck, and I hope any of the suggestions above provide some help.
Oh! And reach out to the online Autism community, too - parenting is difficult, parenting a neurodivergent child can be especially difficult, so please know that you have a community out here, ready to help, or even just to listen when you've had a rough day 😊
@@christyzeeaquarianated2600 Thank you so much. I wish you and your family the best. Happy mothers day as well.
I was actually nonverbal myself when I was young, and it was a pain for me and my mom. Thank god I can speak full sentences nowadays. But still, I cannot thank you enough for the knowledge you bless us with, and that my fellow autistic compadre, is commendable.
Sincerely yours,
Arséne Lupin
Hi Arséne! Thank you so much for the wonderful comment! I'm so happy that you were able to overcome so much as your grew with autism! Keep up the great work!
@@williamwehrli7486 Merci, Monsieur William.
@Dr Yuching Lee
Thank you so much for your suggestion.
What is the name of that herb again?
My screen is narrow, so it presented the name in two parts. So not sure.
And how is it prepared and taken?
Thanks so much. My grandson is on the spectrum.
@Dr Yuching Lee
Thanks for the link.
I checked it out, but I am skeptical.
Can you please give me a quick rundown of your child’s autism healing experience.
Including the herbs, and how you used them and how your child is doing now.
I would be very grateful, thanks.
My sister started talking late but did.
This truly works, my was son is 7 now but was non verbal until around 4-5 years old, so i understand
Thank you, William. I have a 6 year old boy who’s going though the same thing. I appreciate you sharing your experiences.
Many thanks William for highlighting your personal story and sharing your experiences with us. We need more awareness and thank you for sharing your personal content. Keep up the good work as you continue to spread hope and faith for a lot of families 🙌
Thank you will for your courage to share your experiences. My nonverbal autistic daughter is 7 now and we have been through every therapy know to the ASD community. She is smart and can read, meaning she comprehends just fine…and can write and spell anything new you give her. But, no speech yet 😢. All of the things your mom did with you are things we do, using “site words” in day-to-day activities to help with the child’s development. My daughter understands them, just won’t speak them, won’t attempt to. She regressed around 15 months old just when she was saying her first words like “dada, mama”. Haven’t heard dada since 😢😢
That’s apraxia probably. She has a high chance of speaking I thought if she gets good training. Based on a video of a kid on UA-cam.
Could be apraxia, where the person can not form the words with the mouth, even though they know what they want to say and can comprehend language
Apraxia
Investigate the child's diet. Remove gluten and dairy for a 3 month period as an experiment. Look for the hidden sources in prepared foods. There are probably whole channels that can assist.
My son have apraxia, he had to learn to make even "a" sound. He didn't start with "mama", just puting the mouth into right shape was hard enough. But gradually he speaks better and now at the age of 7 he's speaking very good.
That's amazing your daughter can write at this age, she can communicate. Motivation is extremely important, my son didn't want to even try to speak, but if he wanted something he needed to ask. Even if he couldn't get the right sound, he had to try enough. At first he was speaking only at the kindergarten and not at all at home, because I wasn't demanding that and he didn't feel the need himself. Now he's the most talkative kid in the class, he's attending local public school with some support,it probably wouldn't be possible if he was non verbal.
Some people never will develop speech, no matter what, but there's always possibility. I've read about nonverbal 17 years old who learned to speak and even finished university, became an educator, so there are a lot of possibilities we don't know yet
How can one think without words? I know animals do, but do nonverbal autistic people understand all that is said to them? How involved are their thoughts?
Why are these unbelievably important videos on this specific topic so damn short and vague?!
My son is non verbal he scripts me, can identify things, he is slowly becoming more communicative but it’s taking time.
Any suggestions about having my son diagnosed?
He’s almost 30, born with Down’s Syndrome, used to LOVE his Sesame Street Search n Learn game, and used to have about 350 signs… before our world turned upside down.
We’re slowly becoming more stable, and I hope to work with him again. He had learned mostly because of Thomas the Train and Curious George - still his favorites. I helped George do what my son needed to do, then he would copy his buddy. His PCP didn’t want to add a label on him, and he was sick so much that I finally home schooled him, so school didn’t give him an autism diagnosis either. A heart surgeon was the first to ask if my son was autistic when he was 12.
me too i cannot speak properly till i was 3-4 yrs old
- 3 yrs old ( word by word only )
- 4 yrs old ( full sentences and full phraces but cannot pronounce or roll my "R" sound till i was 7 like: Instead Cairo i pronounce it as Caiwo something like that )
8 years old ( I can pronounce or roll my "R" sound already till now )
btw i have mild autism and im 26 going 27 this yr
Sounds like you developed well! That’s close to me. I was 6 when I started speaking properly. You’re doing amazing!
I feel like you are telling my story . Only the last part of the story tells us missing. I will do that
Thank you so much for sharing! It’s really amazing you talk beautifully now. My 3 years old son is non-verbal Autism. Your story gives me so much hope and I will follow whatever your mom did to you to my son. Hopefully he will talk soon. Many appreciations! Pls keep sharing more videos
Don't give up hope! My son has Autism and was also non-verbal, but he started talking by the age of 4. He is now 6 and his speech is constantly progressing. Just continue to talk to your son normally, read to him, sing with him. If you're able, get him into center based ABA therapy, he's at that age where he qualifies for early intervention help. ❤
Hello, try Speak oil, smoothies with leafy green veggies/ fruits, kefir for probiotics, no gluten, Empowerplus by Truehope, or a vitamin mineral supplement designed for children on the spectrum, ABA Therapy, Dr Berg video about autism. Shalom
@@JazTheeno, ABA is abusive dog training (badly) for autistic kids.
Hi William, thank you for sharing your video. You are truly amazing. My son is 5 and non verbal. Watching your videos gives me so much hope! I have a question, the exercise your Mom do with you is it “Teach Me Language” by Dr. Sabrina Freeman? Thank you again.
Thank you so much Kristen! I'm so happy that my videos give you hope! Yes it is by Sabrina Freeman!
My son is 4 and he non verbal, he diagnosed When he was 2 and half years old.
My boy doesnt read books he refuses to look at them. Doesnt copy and doesnt pay attention unless its on tv so its different for every child. He never liked books his body is very sensory seeking and he needs to regulate it alot .
How old is your son if you don't mind me asking. Our daughter is 5 and she's the same way. She really doesn't care much about the books. She rips them apart sometimes. She likes to destruct everything and see how it works.
@@Felon_With_A_Gun 3
@@mattersfingers ours turns 5 in couple months
The ABA propagandist doesnt like being challenged huh
Very interesting. I dont think that we should assume that all non-verbal people with autism can learn - but it certainly goes to show that we shoudnt give up.
All those non-speaking cannot be assumed that they can get to become speaking, but that isn't the same as them being unable to learn language, to read and write it or use it in a different mode expressively like sign language.
If my neurology had been just a bit more different for dyspraxia, and/or auditory processing, I'd likely have been effectively non-speaking, because I wouldn't have been able to make it sufficiently intelligible. It doesn't mean I'd be unable to learn language, but the speaking and audio processing of it would put a damper on things.
My speech still isn't perfectly clear, as an adult, even though I had several years of speech therapy. You can't reliably control that which you cannot reliably sense.
At what age you have proper sentencing speech???
How do you get them to sit in the classroom.
Great story. Thanks for sharing that william. Your mom is indeed a super hero.
I don’t have learning ability and because I have autism
Thank you so much for this video.
I love this video. Im a speech language pathologist and this is a great motivation for me..
Aww well I’m so glad you like it! Thank you so much!
We read book after book after book and always sang songs and nursery rhymes and actually now one of the things that my 18 year old son loves the most is to come up to you and insert the wrong words into a sentence or wrong lyrics into a song, then we react as if this is absolutely terrible, he starts giggling and then corrects himself, its turned into a fun game
This is so adorable thank you for sharing!! ❤️❤️❤️
@Amina90982could I have Dr Oyalo’s address please 🙏
I could use all of your advice
For all parents of nonverbal level 3 autism. I’m a psychologist and I used NeurOptimal on him with attachment therapy and in one week he went from 2 words to sentences now after 30 sessions he is having complex conversations. I have only this one story to tell as I don’t normally work with autism but as a parent it’s worth looking at. I told the mum the beginning I didn’t know if it would help so I’d give her 3 free session. It’s been life changing. Also I stopped all discussions in front of him as if he wasn’t thee or if he was a problem. Thi also had a dramatic affect . The mother has also used diet which ended fits and calmed outbursts. The amazing woman in England who does intensive communication. Entering into their language helped enormously.
Hello, maybe this is hopeless, maybe someone has suggestions.
I have a 7yo stepson who's non verbal. He will say yes, no, come on and other small phrases and words, but he doesn't speak per se. He seems to understand everything we say though, but cannot be reasoned with.
Do you have any tips for dealing with a child that you cannot explain things to? He also doesn't seem to understand or care if he hurts people physically. He finds it funny to pull hair even if we've stated calmly and many times not to do it because it hurts and we don't like it.
All of the resources we have access to are only available at school, so when he's home we're left with no help and no guidance.
I really wanna be a good parent to this child, but feel like I'm lacking the right tools to help him.
His needs are getting more complex, and thus he's getting more frustrated, has trouble sleeping and still isn't potty trained. Though that is something we're setting a plan for in the coming weeks in with the school so we can make a joint effort to help him through it.
Hello, thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. Raising a child with complex needs, especially when they are non-verbal, can indeed present unique challenges. It's clear that you care deeply for your stepson's well-being, and your willingness to seek advice and help is a positive step.
Firstly, it's important to acknowledge that every child with autism is unique, and what works for one child may not work for another. Here are a few suggestions that might help in your situation:
Visual Communication: Since your stepson seems to understand some words, consider using visual aids like picture cards or a communication board to help him express his needs and understand instructions. Visual supports can be particularly helpful for non-verbal individuals.
Positive Reinforcement: Implement a system of positive reinforcement. When he engages in desirable behaviors, offer praise or a small reward to encourage repetition.
Behavioral Strategies: Work with professionals who can provide guidance on behavioral strategies. A behavior therapist or a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) can create a behavior intervention plan tailored to your stepson's specific needs.
Social Stories: Create social stories or visual narratives that explain social situations and expected behaviors. These can help him understand how his actions affect others.
I recommend focusing on your stepson's immediate needs and exploring resources available in your community. If you believe your book could genuinely benefit others, you can mention it separately, but it's essential to prioritize the specific needs of your stepson in this discussion.
Remember, raising a child with autism can be challenging, but with patience, love, and access to the right resources, you can make a positive impact on your stepson's life. Continue working closely with his school and seeking professional guidance to provide him with the support he needs to thrive.
Oh I don't HAVE a book, I'm wondering if anyone can recommend one I could read to educate myself, just to clear that up :)@@williamwehrli7486
❤
Thank you kindly for sharing this🤍
Thank you so much William! So helpful and give parents some insight into how we can advance our children’s speech and development ❤
What a blessing to have such a dedicated mother ❤️💕
My 10 year old is verbal but she is not fluently speaking as you. She stutter, stammers ot just uses the same vocabulary or sentences to speak.
What to do to make her as fluent as a normal person like you.
I did many of these methods when my son was growing up. He now fully understands about 95% of what is being said. When it comes to speech he knows te words but does not want to use them . He will repeat if i prompt but will not say them on his own unless its something he really really wants. Any suggestions on how to et him to talk over using gestures. Thank you
your mum is awesome!
hi will just to say thanks as a nanny of asd child for all the informative content not only in yt but also in tiktok I remember one day you have video that you said "AUTISM IS LIKE A WIFI,YOU HAVE GIVE A GOOD REPSEPTION IN ORDER TO HAVE A BETTER CONNECTION" and it's true now I can easily train and teach the asd child that am taking care of he can now wear his clothes little bit alone, eating by himself and go to bathroom when he needs to pee and poop more power and God bless
Aww that means so much to me to hear! Thank you so much for sharing that with me! I’m glad that you found my Wi-Fi “to be helpful and agreeable! That’s amazing that your kid is improving a lot and that you are forming a good connection with him
That's just lot of hardwork in backend.Very easy to hear from you but practically only your mom knows.
Thank you so much William! Subscribed!!
Thank you for your help really appreciate. Love your videos
I hear of people going from non verbal to verbal autistic a lot. But never the other way. Do people go from verbal to non verbal, or verbal to semi verbal? :)
That's very helpful. I'll try that. I've got a 13 year old non- verbal daughter.
Let me know if it works!
How did she get you to have the joint attention to sit down long enough and engage with her to do it?
According to my Mom, the lesson was short and she would do them 3-4 times a day. So in total she probably did 20-30 minutes max. She made them fun for me too and she used things that she knew would hold my attention. She made it a routine and I liked the routine.
Essentially like teaching ESL to kids. Makes sense, as being autist is like being a foreigner in a foreign country, and living among a foreign family, where nothing is intuitive. We must learn everything as if we're foreigners.
William you're awesome. Massive respect and love.
My stepchild is 8 and is nonverbal , I feel very hopeless I dont believe she will be able to speak .honestly I just wish for her to learn how to communicate , whether that be an AAC device or sign language .
Thank you sir
Lol, thumbs up! It took a deep personal effort to learn, it took me years to speak too. Nicely done
Thanks for the inspiring video! My son is 3.5y and nonverbal. Does anyone know if a nonverbal child will have difficulties to write?
That’s a really good question! I always communicated better by writing
I taught my 4 years old autistic son new vocabulary using books and educational video ..and I try my best to name items we see when we ride in the car or go to somewhere new really helpful but needs patience and repetition.
You’re doing a great job! Pictures are very important. When William was little he saw words in pictures so an apple wasn’t a p p l e it was 🍎
Thank you iam doing the right thing for my 4 year old son my son can now pick up things like nappie he lays down bath he starts to get u changed i tell him eveyday what things are and he really loves it ❤
aw thanks for sharing!!
I have autism and learning difficulties and learning disabilities and learning disorders and ADHD
Thank you so much for your insight. As a speech pathologist that works with Autistic children, it’s great hearing about what worked for you.
Therapeutic LSD might work. Seriously.
My niece went from non verbal to verbal through speech therapies.
That’s so awesome that speech therapy was able to help her communicate verbally!
@@williamwehrli7486 yes, she is bilingual can speak English as well as Urdu (our national language) fluently and can read and write both languages as well. Now she is 11 now.
Thank you so much! You should continue updating your channel!
That's the plan! Or I may start from scratch
Thank you I am going to have my daughter watch this ,, 3 out of her 4 are nonverbal …
Its very frustrating when my little one doesnt understand what im saying to him
I had to slow my sons speech down. He started talking when he was over 3 yrs old.
Thank you for posting this video Will! I actually potty trained my son with a potty song so I can see how songs helped you! My son is 5 and half and loves it when I identify items in his baby books. But he has a hard time understanding that cups can be different but..still a cup 😆 I guess practice makes perfect. I would love to hear if you had/have any feeding or eating issues/preferences and how your mom helped you. I know everyone is different but you give me hope.
Oh nice! What song did you use? That's awesome how you have that connection with your son when it comes to identifying his favorite things. I can see how he can have a hard time differentiating cups since we autistic people are black and white. According to my Mom, I was actually one of the easiest eaters. I still do hate squash and cream of wheat.
@@williamwehrli7486 We used the Daniel Tiger songs "when you have to go potty" it would snap him out of his little bubble if he was playing and hadn't gone potty in a while. Wow that's awesome that you were a good eater. She was lucky!!! My son hacks and gags when I present him with new foods. It's sad because if he would just try it he might like it. I wish I knew what is causing him to limit his diet.
Hello, ABA therapy, your child qualifies for grants if you live in the United States. Also, Speak oil, smoothies with leafy green veggies/ fruits, kefir for probiotics, Empowerplus powder supplement designed for the central nervous system or one that you choose that provides nutrients for the brain. Dr Berg video about Autism and talk explain everything to your child. Find other children that will play with your child and do some roll playing. Pray, pray pray. Shalom
@@marielaavila9182 you are whats causing it because the second he gags you take away the food so you have taught him that to not have to eat all he has to do is gag
She did an excellent job with you! You are doing well.
Thank you so much! She really did!
Good information
Thank you
Thanx William for sharing. my son is 4 yrs and non verbal. he was diagnosed early this year. im trying to find ways of helping him with speech. Does the Gemiini speech work?
I think that it would be a good tool but it might not motivate language as well as a good ABA type approach. That system of introduction, presentation and use system that William describes in his above video is an ABA model. I learned it from the book Teach me Language by Sebring Freedman. I made language fun for William with sing songs. Happ Palmer has some excellent videos called baby songs and toddler songs that model social stories to music and pictures. Children books like Dr Seuss help because they rhyme and are silly. All kids love hearing them over and over and learn to memorize them which builds their vocabulary-even if they’re not speaking them. I also used catalogs (which I don’t know if they even make anymore) because they had great pictures of easily identifiable items. Hugs and best wishes for your family!!
Hello, watch Dr Berg’s video on autism. Also, we used Speak oil, Empowerplus powder by Truehope a vitamin mineral supplementation designed for the central nervous system. No gluten. Smoothies with leafy green veggies/fruit and kefir for probiotics. ABA Therapy, if you live in the States grants will help you pay for services. Talk, explain everything to your child. Sing songs, recite nursery rhymes. Also there is a stuffed animal ( dog) name Violet by leap frog that you program to say their names etc. On UA-cam Blippi, Coco melon, Juny/ Tony and much prayer. Shalom
God bless your loving mom. 💕 She worked so hard to do her best to bless you, now your working hard by making this video to bless others. May Jesus bless you both.
I'm so ignorant on autism but lately I really am trying hard to learn more on this topic, so thank you for your video
Thank you for sharing your story! Your mom is obviously a Rock Star and so are you!❤
Thank you so much! I think so too!
Amazing
Hi William, thanks for your videos! I have a nonverbal 26 month old who only speaks jargon and I’m hoping he will be verbal at some point so your tips are very helpful … thank you!
Nice to meet you Liz! Thank you so much for watching my videos! Remember that everybody develops at a different rate than others. Just give it time, patience and consistency!
@@williamwehrli7486 thank you so much 🙏🏼 yes I’m definitely going to take your advice. I appreciate your content as it has been so useful 🤗 and will continue to watch it so please continue posting!
@Accra Terminal agency it’s a neurotype so there is no cure.
He's got plenty of time to develop :) just use it well, there are different speech therapies, you may also look into Nemechek protocol, especially fish oil for Omega-3 fatty acids
Great ideas , thank you! My 3 year old daughter is considered non verbal (says about 20 words) I’m going to give this a try with her.
Glad it was helpful!
It has. Thank You. God Bless You!
Same to you!
Thanks for sharing
BRAVO.❤
