    Just FYI you need to be resident in the UK in order to take a UK driving test. You can't take one when you're on holiday there. Izzy would need to take hers in Dubai now, seeing as that's where you're resident.

    It's wrong to call people autistic and assume they have autism. But for future reference, the way that you phrased it with the "there's nothing wrong with Isla" is a bit tactless. There is nothing wrong with autistic people full stop. We're just a little different :) Not hating though
    EDIT: Also, the problem here isn't really Isla being called autistic, as there would be nothing wrong with that and I'm sure you'd love her just the same if she was. But, there is a problem with the fact that people are calling her autistic as an insult, as a teenage girl at school, I often hear the word "autism" get thrown around as an insult and online and it is so incredibly hurtful. Perhaps with your large platform, you can discourage people from staying stuff like this, not just for Isla (although she's such a sweet girl and you have every right to defend her), but also for the autistic people who do not want to be thought of as these strange aliens. :)

      not display external symptoms. My friend was diagnosed in her 30s and not even her family suspected. A lot is traits that go on internally. Theres so many people in 40s/50s in media who have diagnosed later in life. In my experience unless you’re at the severe end
      of the spectrum you wouldnt know.

    Hey Sarah, I was just watching the birthday day out video for Esmé’s bday. I was commenting on the baby and even think of Mila with the heat. I looked up some ideas on how to monitor a baby’s body temp and they sell little stickers that you can get to put on to indicate a fever but would also indicate id she’s just way overheated and unable to cool her body down. And I was thinking it might be useful to keep a forehead scan thermometer which would avoid waking any baby up but allow you to keep an eye on their body temp so they don’t get so hot they are harmed. Also thought two things might help for diaper bag as well as a portable thermometer scanner. One is just a simple small spray bottle with water in it so you can mist her and help her have more evaporative cooling, and maybe for an urgent situation keep one of those first aid ice packs or a couple that if the smaller three got too hot you could have a fast cooling option. Might even be useful for you there when it’s so hot and sometimes plans change or lines and traffic and all mean you are in the heat longer than planned. You might want to keep a method to cool down in case a car broke down for everyone in the car like some water, dry electrolyte powder sticks in your diaper bag or first aid kit, ice packs and a small pop up umbrella in case you got emergency stuck somewhere. I know it’s a city so there are many available services but sometimes weird things happen and you find yourself stranded . Def get a cheap temp scanner for Aura and Mila and keep some water in the car when you go out even if you don’t need it and some form of shade. The hot there seems kinda scary for a baby. I know you do your best. Just wanted to offer some ideas to keep Aura sage. ❤

Let the child speak for herself sarah you dont have to speak over isla and no one has ever said you’ve made you isla autistic cause that not how it works. You dont get autism from neglect. You can still be presured when your homeschooled, you put your kids all over the internet wheres there billions of trolls and preverts and people who will pressure your children more than school ever would. Maybe school is good as it teaches childen how to grow up and how your meant to act in society which these kids will not understand

    I just want to comment, I dont think theres anything wrong with what Isla said about being autistic, she actually worded it very well and I appreciate her sensitivity around the subject however, Sarah, please dont say things like 'there's nothing wrong with Isla' because having autism doesnt mean theres something 'wrong' with you, you are just different and percieve the world differently. I just want to give you the opportunity to understand that it can be damaging to use connotations such as 'wrong' or 'bad' with autism, autism can be a really cool superpower like Jace's eye superpower, it doesn't mean there is something 'wrong' with him and I noticed you reworded that question I suppose because the question was 'is there something still wrong with Jace's eye' and if thats the case, I hope you can see that by you wanting to reword that question for Jace's sake, then it would be nice for you to not use such connotations with autism or learning difficulties. There would be absolutely nothing 'wrong' with Isla behaviour if she did or didn't have autism and you being so defensive over those 'assumptions' can also be taken negatively as if its offensive to be asked if you are autistic. Another way of looking at it is if someone asked Isla if she was homosexual and then you said 'there's nothing wrong with the way Isla behaves, shes not gay! It really irks me when people ask that' If someone asked me if I'm gay when I'm not, I just say no and leave it at that, because its not offensive and its not a bad thing or wrong thing in any way. I hope you understand how this can come across. Btw the specific part I'm referring to is said at 52:57. Just a heads up for when future referring to developmental disabilities.

      @@laylaheneaghan1331 I really do agree! I think it probably helps that being a female and autistic is more commonly seen on tiktok and so maybe she's had some exposure to autism that doesn't look stereotypical, and therefore can see that being autistic doesn't make you an alien, also the fact that their friend they go to theme parks with is autistic is very worrying that Sarah can make such statements online regarding that something is 'wrong' with autistic people and therefore, maybe Isla also is sensitive and more educated on the matter having a friend who is on the spectrum makes her less judgemental and hold stereotypes against autistic people. I think Isla is fantastic at conveying her emotions and really appreciate her sensitivity around the topic. She's a very wise young girl.

      @@CharlotteIvyI completely agree with you! However considering Isla is the next generation for our young people and that she handled the topic so maturely and sensitively makes me think our future generations will beat the stigma. Unfortunately, Sarah still seems to have the mindset of the 70's and therefore still sees autism as an insult and offensive. Those generations won't be mainstream for much longer though! Just look at the acceptance for LGBTQ+ communities. Young women like Isla are going to propel the acceptance of everyone and it's amazing to see such a young person be so wise around sensitive topics.

    I do understand the defence for Isla and the comments around autism. But I'm going to come at the comments from another angle. So I've got a 13yr old, who in my eyes I've never thought she had any sort of alternative needs, never saw any clues of being on the spectrum etc, but let me tell you now, its such a massive variety of things that can all add to being neurodivergent or on the spectrum. My girl has small things throughout her life that I would of absolutely said we're just normal quirks. Turns out after hormones hit she saw a few struggles (minor things that all added up to become overwhelming things to her) and she's been with a therapist for anxiety, who's put her forward for autism spectrum diagnosis and adhd. So it's very often no way near as big of differences as we once perceived... she's absolutely a normal 13 year old x

      @CarlieMaria28 I mean she's not asked for the check, as she had no clue about it either. It was more she was struggling with anxieties a little and after in depth talks we found she has many little traits of both. It's honestly no way near as obvious as people once thought, nor as obvious as TV and movies make out

      Sounds a lot like me growing up, I was just seen as a bit different or “quirky” and I ended up struggling a lot once I hit my teens, I left school early and never successfully returned to education. In my late teens autism was mentioned to me but I never pursued a diagnosis until my daughter was going through the process and I decided to after realising how much she was like me as a child. The understanding of autism in women and girls we have now is only very recently discovered about 10/15 years ago it was believed autism was very rare in girls. Now we know it’s just as common for boys and girls it just presents differently. Not to say that Isla is autistic, only a professional could make that decision but there’s definitely still a lack of understanding of what autism looks like in girls

    I love Isla, always have done, but one thing I LOVE about her is she’s not in a rush to grow up. Isla, I’m almost 16 years old and have the same thought. I still dress like I’m an “8 year old” as what other people like to say. I’m also homeschooled and when I was in school I felt the pressure of being like all of the other girls in my class to “fit it” , but since leaving school I’ve seen my true colours. I act how I want, I dress how I want, why? Because I CAN and YOU CAN. It’s so crazy seeing how much peer pressure school has on children, even as young as Isla. Isla, you’re perfect just the way you are. And don’t let ANYONE change that. And I also had an eye patch when I was Jace’s age too. I had a lazy left eye, but never wanted to wear my glasses. But for some reason I just grew out of it and don’t need glasses anymore 12-11 years later.
    Love you guys so much, been a fan since 2017 ❤

    I applaud Isla for being her own person & doing her own thing. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with still wanting to play with dolls or toys at the age of 12! There is no reason to rush growing up because speaking from experience, it isn't that great. I honestly wish I wouldn't have been in a rush to grow up. I remember getting together with my younger cousin to play with her dolls when I was 12 & I loved it. A plus to homeschooling is not having the pressures to fit in & grow up at a faster pace like I experienced in regular school. Isla, you are perfect the way you are! You are a sweet, kind, all around lovely girl. Don't pay attention to the haters.

    I have always enjoyed watching your videos and actually felt bad that you have felt so judged for your life choices, which I genuinely thought were inspirational . However today my opinion changed, when I watched this video.
    You don’t like being judged yet you thought it was ok to air a video using the word ‘normal’ to describe neurotypical! My 13 year old was diagnosed with autism at the end of last year, there is nothing ‘wrong’ with her, she sees the world differently to a neurotypical person but that doesn’t make it ‘wrong’. She is a very intelligent child who will go along way. What is wrong is that people use language to make her feel excluded or not accepted in the neurotypical world. You didn’t like when you thought someone was being critical of your child, I don’t like the language you used to make my child feel like she’s ’not normal’! You have a platform to promote a positive change in the world yet you’ve used it to make autistic children feel like they are abnormal. Think about the language you use, you wouldn’t like it if it was directed to one of your children!
