As an autistic daughter myself, I can relate to this on another level. I am 14 years old rn and I'm not allowed to cook, only bake. I'm definitely not allowed to touch the knife, I still have parental controls on my devices even though I was supposed to be able to decide whether I wanted to manage my own account or not on my 13th birthday. My mom packs my lunch, definitely invades my privacy and also talks about my autism in a way that gives me insecurities just like the part in the video where Lauren's mom tried to tell her why she can't have a boyfriend. Honestly, I almost teared up watching this because it's the most relatable thing I've ever seen in my life. This video is just so heartwarming. I also just feel like my mom doesn't trust me. She doesn't even let me go outside by myself unless I have to walk home from my coding class and she only allows that because my little brother walks with me + she makes me text her to assure her that I am ok. Honestly, even though this is just a story, I'm so glad that everything turned out well for Lauren because I don't know if it will be the same for me. Me and my mom had a talk today and she is definitely ok with me going to college once I graduate hs but I feel like she wants me to stay near home and start with community college before transferring. She said that I would need to stay and "grow up more" because I can't do my laundry, I can't cook and I am terrible at cleaning (I wonder why). Also, I would need a job which is a big change. At this point, this video just reminds me of my mom and I'm scared that she might stalk me like that too. Honestly, I don't know anything anymore. If you're not autistic then pls don't judge us. I feel overwhelmed constantly because of having to worry about not only what my mom would say but what other people would think. We are aware of our condition because we hear a lot from our parents. I know this is messy but If you actually read up to here, then thank you for reading my tedtalk.
I’m so sorry you have to go through this please talk to your mother and ask her to respect your personal space and tell her that you are more capable of doing things
A good idea might be to show her this video then or at least tell her about what happens in it then link it to how she’s been treating you, hopefully she can learn from that?
And I got my own helicopter parent and that exact parent is always so bothered by my interests of cats and how I wanna keep him or her safe from dangerous household everyday products like perfumes and things like that but I’m just trying to make sure my kitten child will be safe before I get to having him or her on the flip side after graduating I always thought to work at an animal shelter then from there a cafe with cats but since I’m autistic I’ve been held back from such a thing
bro i get the ick everytime she calls her honeybunny lmao😭💀 Edit: Hi guys just wanted to say thanks for all the likes I've never had this many before it genuinely surprised me😅
As an autistic (High functioning) and epileptic daughter myself, I can relate to this on another level. I am 13 years old now and I'm not allowed to cook, I don’t like things that are mine to be touched or breathed on and It’s very difficult to make decisions most of the time. And when my mum talk about my autism I feel a bit shy/embarrassed that I’ve got autism. This video is so beautiful and heartwarming
I understand how you feel. As i became an adult I've actually been less embarrassed and more open about the fact that i have autism but I'm also aware that it is and will always be a factor in my life. It's especially prevolent in social situations, and all my previous "friends" have abandoned me for one reason or another. It's hard, but it's who i am and i don't want to feel bad about it anymore. I hope you get to a place where you feel the same way.
@@Aroaceenby I had the same problem with friends too! And as my 3 other schools wouldn’t except me for who I am I’ve had to move schools 5 times. But I’m more open for my autism than I use to be. Have a magnificent day and weekend!
35:50 'So often in life, i feel like a caged bird struggling to break free and take flight and even when i managed to escape from my cage, someone burns up my wings and I'm stuck on the ground.' Girl that was supreme. 🔥🔥🔥
My mother suddenly became like this when I got diagnosed with autism at 15, she was never like this before the diagnosis. I was lucky that my parents were divorced and I could go to my dad's house and ditch her. It's incredibly uncomfortable to see others treated like this with no escape, even just in a UA-cam video.
@@mayyace in rare cases, there are people who would apologize. It may be due to not being well informed. They see just the types of autism where they would need to be taken care of. They don't see the other types where they can live a functional life if given proper guidance and learning what works for that person. I am sorry you had to go through similar with your mother though. I hope all is going better for you. ^_^
I'm autistic myself and in the past I've had issues with the way Dhar Mann has portrayed autism in the past. Far too often he would rely on stereotypes, portray the characters in perfect at everything, or it would come off as tasteless like the case of recreating the incident of Myka and James Stauffer rehoming an autistic orphan. Yeah, still haven't forgotten that one. But this video though. Oh boy this video. I really have to speak my mind on this one. This video was really good. I really got behind this story and I really appreciate how Lauren was portrayed here. I found her struggles very relatable to the first time I moved out of home, when others would tell us it was a bad idea. And my god the emotion with the scene of her Dad really tugged at the heartstrings. The autistic elements wasn't perfect, like that line "I'm more than just my autism". But at the very least it's showing how much Dhar Mann has improved since he first started doing these videos.
I agree, I’m autistic myself and I’m glad their was a video that was so close to home in the fact of others treating me different at school. The others wasn’t really close to home to me as people suffer differently with autism! X
I am not autistic , but seeing Dhar Mann create videos including autism and other disabilities it’s extremely heartwarming ! We need more videos like this 😊
I can’t believe her mom controlled her life like that. I have autism too my mom never did anything like she did to Lauren. I bet she was the one that found away to reject her from the art college. I can’t believe she talked to Bradley and told him and Lauren to go their separate ways. All because of Autism?! I have autism and everyone treats me the same way as they do everyone else. So yeah Lauren is like everyone else we all are. Disability or not we are like everyone else everyone of us. If her mom was that upset about Lauren leaving her after her father died because she felt like she was going to be alone why didn’t she tell her that before? You should always talk with your kids if you feel that way but don’t keep them back from their dreams. Kids will always visit their parents and never be gone forever when they leave. At least they were able to talk and forgive each other.
Literally manipulated her daughter. What a physco. She didn't give up I cant believe I'm so mad over acting but yea this was an amazing message and video I'm glad everything worked out cuz she and many other autistic ppl are capable of so many things and their dreams ❤
The message of personal growth and overcoming challenges despite having autism is inspirational. It encourages everyone to live their life freely beyond the limitations imposed by others.
I have autism myself. Us autistic people are not perfect at everything. However, people don't know what we're capable of doing. They will soon realize the strengths, abilities and positives autistic people. I don't speak for one autistic person, I speak for every autistic warrior right round the world. It will take more than autism to stop us.
39:42 listen I know you want to protect your daughter because her father passed away but this is not what the father wanted he probably once his daughter to live her own life
Even the number ‘18’ itself screams responsibilities. The reason why Lauren was so disorganised in the first place was all her mums fault for not letting her do anything. Just because someone is autistic, doesn’t mean they should take any less responsibilities. I’m an autistic 16 year old and my parents have let me make my own decisions for years now and rarely ever hold me back from doing anything, proof that having an autistic son/daughter IS NOT AN EXCUSE
as an almost 15-year old, my mom does my hair every morning, my parents cook for me, the other day when i started crying about having 1 pimple on my cheek, my mom helped me put on some kinda cream while i was IN TEARS😭 i really love my parents, sometimes i forget how grateful i should be to have nice parents
32:29, that’s literally breaking and entering sweetheart. Also can I just say how relatable Lauren is in this? Like I have autism and the mood swings, miniature “panic” attacks, negative thinking & isolation are just some of the things that people, especially me, can relate to.
Same! I feel like one thing goes wrong, and I feel like there's a curse over my head. It makes me want to sink into full on meltdown mode. Spending time in nature really helps to keep me grounded.
This mom is extremely manipulative. She was telling her daughter she can’t live a normal life because of the autism. And tbh, autism makes life better in some cases. It’s not always a downside. I’m glad the daughter came to her senses and decided to spread out her wings and not stay cocooned.
8:38 I’ll look OÆFTER you and Lauren is such an INCREDIBLE actor her facial expressions oml gave me shivers and the way Bradley looks at her is true love SUCH great acting oh my lord
29:36 JUST BE QUIET FOR ONCE WOMAN AND FRICKIN LEAVE LAUREN ALONE AND STOP BULLYING HER IF YOU WERE HER MOTHER AND ACTUALLY THERE FOR LAUREN LIKE LAURENS SISTER IS SO KIND AND THERE FOR LAUREN THEN MAYBE YOU WOULD CARE ABOUT LAUREN AND SUPPORT HER OF HER DREAMS THEN DIS THEM AND BULLY LAUREN ABOUT HER DREAMS!
I’m a 30 year old autistic who’s struggled with depression and anxiety for six years, but I have a job, a bus pass, a bank account, I know how to cook, clean, tidy up, do chores and everything by myself, but I have never been mollycoddled in my life. But I often have my own dreams too, but most of them died with covid and the loss of my grandfather and other friends. I struggle to hold myself together, but o have friends and family to help me. I feel sorry for you in every way, Lauren, I know what it feels like. Besides, that dummy who badmouthed should have gotten a kick up the backside.
Her mom shouldn't be shutting her in like that, and the girl should make her own choices. (Edit) ty for 88 likes yall didnt really need to do that but ty.
I'm an autistic young man myself, and I kinda deal with the same problems as Lauren, but my parents give me enough respect it's just that I have so much passion to do the stuff I want to do like being an actor and animatior and to achieve that goal I have to do some stuff and yes it's stressful but sometimes the hard goals in life can be done if you take it one step at a time. With my Autism I could get nervous over things, deal with high blood pressure, have anger issues, and sometimes overthink stuff but I'm still going today thanks to my loving family and my grandfather who's unfortunately not here today. I love you, Grandpa. ^^
she should an 18 year old girl is crazy she will get pregnet in a blink shes just making sure here daughter is okay. shes just worried 98% of art grads fail shes a good mom .
@@Bss_gummyman your supposed to let the girl go off the college and this woman literally is breaking into her daughters home and the daughter doesn’t like it if anything the mom needs a restraining order against her!!
I’m autistic and my mom is protective of me. She refused to let me to go university cause she thought people would take advantage of me which wasn’t the case. Now I’m older and do things on my own. I proved her wrong. For all the autism parents: you’re doing a lot more damage than good when coddling your special need kids.
@@anonymous-s5y3 good! I’m glad he didn’t hold you back from pursing your dreams. You can do whatever you want to do, if not better than anyone else. Remember that.
As a person with autism, I know what you're saying. In my childhood days, the lab scientists said that I couldn't make it to education, but I proved them wrong. I'm an adult and able to learn and work hard.
I was literally in tears at the end. This is such an amazing Dhar Mann video. I really love it how at the end Lauren and her mom see each other after 3 years and she comes back to her to apologize after what she’s done❤🥲🥺
Fr. My school lunches are actually pretty good. But it’s the fact that we only get like 22 min to eat. PLUS, they almost NEVER shut up in those mics at lunch.
I'm 23 years old, and my mom never got this overprotective when she found out I had autism when I was a baby. She didn't do parental controls on any of my devices, nor did she ever do the whole gps tracker thing. She, thankfully trusts me to limit myself on my phone, which is why I set timers on my apps. and when the timer is up, it's up. To anyone who has been treated like this, I am so sorry. Here's something that might make you all feel better: Psalm 94:18-When I said, my foot is slipping, your love, Lord, supported me.
"I am not holding you back, honey bunny, I am holding you together." 34:02, Whoa! You're doing this without your daughter's permission. UNBELIVABLE. No, you're tearing her apart from your craziness! I love these videos, Dhar! Keep doing them!
That mom's crossing boundaries with her daughter. No wonder she moved out. Just because you have a child with a disability, that doesn't mean you get to make his or her life any harder.
for the first time, i respected how Dharr Mann potrays autism with no typical stereotypes ❤ This video is close to my heart and ease my soul that i am more than my spectrum❤ good job!
I have Autism and my parents have taken care of me since day one. My dream is to start a family and one-day start a business and have a future in life. I always hope to have my own place but with everything going on in the world. It's pretty much impossible to live where there is danger around you. I Always believe that if you keep trusting in God for guidance and protection It will eventually lead to hope and success. Thank y'all so much for all that Likes I am very much surprised about How y'all subscribe I didn't expect this many subs
I have Asperger's syndrome and I always was taught that the best way for us to thrive is to expose us to the real world (with company, of course, but still)
I could relate. Whenever my family has a social gathering, I couldn't mingle with 1 person without my mother looking over my shoulder, at dinner, she's always staring at my plate, and when I accidentally burp and say excuse me, she always gives me that dirty look.
I don’t think I’ve seen a more relatable Dhar Mann video. My name is Olivia, I’m Autistic, I just graduated this year, I have never had a job before, never dated, although.. my mom and dad want me to go back to high school for an extra year instead of college. They think I have so much more to learn. I am dreading going back because my one friend that I had at school got in a fight and she was 2 years behind me. So she’s going to be there. I sobbed yesterday because I just cannot see her or talk to her again… but I really don’t wanna disappoint my parents. I’m stuck between 2 predicaments… and school starts in like a week.. I’m so panicked, I can’t make up my mind, they say it’s fine if I don’t go back, but when they told me that, they sounded very angry/disappointed. I don’t know what to do. I just can’t go back… Any advice please?..
It’s a disability. Source: autistic person here. If I am mistaken and you’re not neurotypical, it’s fine to see your own autism that way if you feel that way but don’t state it as a fact because as you can see I’m the third autistic person to tell you no.
This is literally how narcissistic moms be, just straight up demons, don't wanna see anyone else happy and just care about nothing but dragging others into darkness with them. I may not relate to having autism but ik what it's like growing up with a controlling mom(especially when they take advantage of their disabled children) I can go on and on but this video is merely scratching the surface, super relatable.
It's bad enough to be unlucky enough to date a controlling partner , & worse still if it happens to be one of your family members. Unfortunately, even your family members can be controlling, Isolate you, Treat you like a child, Doesn't let you have any freedom & independence, Controls the purse strings, I've got some of my own to add , Yep, Controls who you associate with, & the kind of people to associate with, Controls your hobbies, (eg sketching, like, dictate what kind of people you have in your artwork), Controls what you buy, (e.g. your family member or partner gets mad when you buy , say a 100th pair of shoes for example), Checks your phone or emails, Tells you what to eat, wear, & when to eat, wear, bathe, & sleep, & wake up, With a toxic family member/partner , you're way better off without them. All they do is make you miserable, & drag you down in to their toxic little world. That's what Lauren's mom did to her in that storyline.
Her Overprotective is to blame for her daughter being so unorganised . Not to mention being so shy, insecure, & unsure of herself. Her Overprotective mom has a lot of explaining to do. That story is so triggering to me cause my mom was just like that in my school/cherry orchard years too. I live in South London The U.K., not the USA. My mom wouldn't ket me go to mainstream discos when everyone else was, & still makes me feel very bitter about it even now!. I feel very sorry for lauren in that storyline.

They will soon realize the strengths, abilities and positives autistic people. I don't speak for one autistic person, I speak for every autistic warrior right round the world. It will take more than autism to stop us.
Correct. It's not about disability, it's about Ability. That's our saying at my work. I am high functioning Autism myself, have an MBA, and a success.
Amen ❤
Hi, I'm not an autistic child but I love you guys,you all are special ❤
I agree we are more capable than what people think
HELL YEAH!!! HELL YEAH!!! So am I under the spectrum, fellow warrior.
Being autistic doesnt mean parents need to be so overbearing. If they treat you like any other child you easily become independent
This isnt a protective mum, this is a manipulative and abuseful mum
Narcissistic as well, she tries to cut off her daughter’s resources and connections so she can stay in control
@@leonghongling9842 yeah
I’m pretty sure the word is “abusive”, not “abuseful”.
@@StormyTheFairyHD it got the same point across
@@leonghongling9842and she's an abelist
39:42 listen I know you want to protect your daughter because her father passed away but this is not what the father wanted he probably once his daughter to live her own life
Its a script..
@@RyannDiamond yea its not real...
Even the number ‘18’ itself screams responsibilities. The reason why Lauren was so disorganised in the first place was all her mums fault for not letting her do anything. Just because someone is autistic, doesn’t mean they should take any less responsibilities. I’m an autistic 16 year old and my parents have let me make my own decisions for years now and rarely ever hold me back from doing anything, proof that having an autistic son/daughter IS NOT AN EXCUSE
Fr!
Frfr
Real
Frrrrr
This!! I have 4 on the spectrum and they are not allowed to use it as a crutch. Exceptions but no excuses
13:06 That stare caught me off guard
😂😂😂
frrrrrrrrr
Read ma name
Frr 😂
FR 😂
as an almost 15-year old, my mom does my hair every morning, my parents cook for me, the other day when i started crying about having 1 pimple on my cheek, my mom helped me put on some kinda cream while i was IN TEARS😭 i really love my parents, sometimes i forget how grateful i should be to have nice parents
32:29, that’s literally breaking and entering sweetheart.
Also can I just say how relatable Lauren is in this? Like I have autism and the mood swings, miniature “panic” attacks, negative thinking & isolation are just some of the things that people, especially me, can relate to.
Finally someone points out that she broke into her home (twice). Gotta love that she also tracks her phone without her consent too :D
Me too.
Same here!
Same! I feel like one thing goes wrong, and I feel like there's a curse over my head. It makes me want to sink into full on meltdown mode. Spending time in nature really helps to keep me grounded.
Same I have autism too and I always want to do things and I'm always hyper
THE REACTION ON HER FACE EVERYTIME SHES AROUND HER MOM😭😭😭
SHE LOOKS SO TRAUMATIZED😭
@@Sienna_Ella757 IKR
This mom is extremely manipulative. She was telling her daughter she can’t live a normal life because of the autism. And tbh, autism makes life better in some cases. It’s not always a downside. I’m glad the daughter came to her senses and decided to spread out her wings and not stay cocooned.
1minute
Why didn’t the mom worry about herself? Focus on yourself!
8:38 I’ll look OÆFTER you and Lauren is such an INCREDIBLE actor her facial expressions oml gave me shivers and the way Bradley looks at her is true love SUCH great acting oh my lord
Help she looks traumatized 😭 13:11

22:27 THE WAY HE SAID TANJIRO KAMADO 😭
Thank you. you get me🤣

I agree
29:36 JUST BE QUIET FOR ONCE WOMAN AND FRICKIN LEAVE LAUREN ALONE AND STOP BULLYING HER
IF YOU WERE HER MOTHER AND ACTUALLY THERE FOR LAUREN LIKE LAURENS SISTER IS SO KIND AND THERE FOR LAUREN THEN MAYBE YOU WOULD CARE ABOUT LAUREN AND SUPPORT HER OF HER DREAMS THEN DIS THEM AND BULLY LAUREN ABOUT HER DREAMS!
I’m a 30 year old autistic who’s struggled with depression and anxiety for six years, but I have a job, a bus pass, a bank account, I know how to cook, clean, tidy up, do chores and everything by myself, but I have never been mollycoddled in my life. But I often have my own dreams too, but most of them died with covid and the loss of my grandfather and other friends. I struggle to hold myself together, but o have friends and family to help me. I feel sorry for you in every way, Lauren, I know what it feels like. Besides, that dummy who badmouthed should have gotten a kick up the backside.
Her mom shouldn't be shutting her in like that, and the girl should make her own choices. (Edit) ty for 88 likes yall didnt really need to do that but ty.
Lauren does have a point.
Womp womp
In that storyline,
Lauren's mom was just a manipulative bullying cow!
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
"Wow. You're really good at your job."
"Thank you 🙂"
"Can we get some help over here? We don't have all day."
Super snarky customer.
The mother's overprotection is what make her be a little desorganized and with lack of experience
and she broke into her daughter's property which is illegal by the way
I'm an autistic young man myself, and I kinda deal with the same problems as Lauren, but my parents give me enough respect it's just that I have so much passion to do the stuff I want to do like being an actor and animatior and to achieve that goal I have to do some stuff and yes it's stressful but sometimes the hard goals in life can be done if you take it one step at a time.
With my Autism I could get nervous over things, deal with high blood pressure, have anger issues, and sometimes overthink stuff but I'm still going today thanks to my loving family and my grandfather who's unfortunately not here today.
I love you, Grandpa. ^^
'' if you keep a bird 🐦 in a cage it will never learn to fly '' honestly I've never heard that one before but I love it very much 👍🏾 👌🏽

I'D AGREE WITH LAUREN, BECAUSE SHE'S AN ADULT AT 18 & LIVING TO SEE IT, & HER MOM SHOULDN'T TREATED HER IN LIKE A CHILD OK!😢❤
she should an 18 year old girl is crazy she will get pregnet in a blink shes just making sure here daughter is okay. shes just worried 98% of art grads fail shes a good mom

@@Bss_gummyman DID YOU WATCH THE VIDEO THAT IS SO OUT OF PROPORTION IF U ACTUALLY WATCHED THE VIDEO YOU WOULD SEE SHE IS A ✨DEMURE✨ YOUNG LADY
It's a video chill
@@Bss_gummyman your supposed to let the girl go off the college and this woman literally is breaking into her daughters home and the daughter doesn’t like it if anything the mom needs a restraining order against her!!
I agree
I’m autistic and my mom is protective of me. She refused to let me to go university cause she thought people would take advantage of me which wasn’t the case. Now I’m older and do things on my own. I proved her wrong. For all the autism parents: you’re doing a lot more damage than good when coddling your special need kids.
i love you
@@RyantheMVP45 thank you soo much!
I am lucky that my dad did let me go to university and I start my last year of University tomorrow even if I am autistic
@@anonymous-s5y3 good! I’m glad he didn’t hold you back from pursing your dreams. You can do whatever you want to do, if not better than anyone else. Remember that.
As a person with autism, I know what you're saying. In my childhood days, the lab scientists said that I couldn't make it to education, but I proved them wrong. I'm an adult and able to learn and work hard.
I was literally in tears at the end. This is such an amazing Dhar Mann video. I really love it how at the end Lauren and her mom see each other after 3 years and she comes back to her to apologize after what she’s done❤🥲🥺
I really wish teachers were more like the ones in dhar mann vids. Honestly the school system is so bad.
Fr like some of my school lunches in elementary school looked liked vomit🤮
you might wanna watch some more dhar mann videos before saying this
@@GreyBeltDragon fax
Frrrrrr
Fr. My school lunches are actually pretty good. But it’s the fact that we only get like 22 min to eat. PLUS, they almost NEVER shut up in those mics at lunch.
those girls are bullying her when its literally the mom's fault. Honestly the worst mom i've ever seen
Yeah she’s way overboard!
good intentions, bad outcomes.
Ntm on the mom she didn’t know
At least she learn her lessons
She thinks she can handle it while nope my brother is like her so I understand what she needs and you are right girly pops

I'm 23 years old, and my mom never got this overprotective when she found out I had autism when I was a baby. She didn't do parental controls on any of my devices, nor did she ever do the whole gps tracker thing. She, thankfully trusts me to limit myself on my phone, which is why I set timers on my apps. and when the timer is up, it's up. To anyone who has been treated like this, I am so sorry. Here's something that might make you all feel better: Psalm 94:18-When I said, my foot is slipping, your love, Lord, supported me.
"I am not holding you back, honey bunny, I am holding you together." 34:02, Whoa! You're doing this without your daughter's permission. UNBELIVABLE.
No, you're tearing her apart from your craziness! I love these videos, Dhar! Keep doing them!

Me: who are you calling hunny bunny

You shall honey your final bunny
21:40 that guy looks 20 years older than her 💀
for the first time, i respected how Dharr Mann potrays autism with no typical stereotypes ❤ This video is close to my heart and ease my soul that i am more than my spectrum❤ good job!
I have Autism and my parents have taken care of me since day one. My dream is to start a family and one-day start a business and have a future in life. I always hope to have my own place but with everything going on in the world. It's pretty much impossible to live where there is danger around you. I Always believe that if you keep trusting in God for guidance and protection It will eventually lead to hope and success.
Thank y'all so much for all that Likes

I could relate. Whenever my family has a social gathering, I couldn't mingle with 1 person without my mother looking over my shoulder, at dinner, she's always staring at my plate, and when I accidentally burp and say excuse me, she always gives me that dirty look.
I don’t think I’ve seen a more relatable Dhar Mann video.
My name is Olivia, I’m Autistic, I just graduated this year, I have never had a job before, never dated, although..
my mom and dad want me to go back to high school for an extra year instead of college. They think I have so much more to learn. I am dreading going back because my one friend that I had at school got in a fight and she was 2 years behind me. So she’s going to be there. I sobbed yesterday because I just cannot see her or talk to her again… but I really don’t wanna disappoint my parents. I’m stuck between 2 predicaments… and school starts in like a week.. I’m so panicked, I can’t make up my mind, they say it’s fine if I don’t go back, but when they told me that, they sounded very angry/disappointed.
I don’t know what to do.
I just can’t go back…
Any advice please?..
Don't give up yet you'll push through and survive
hi i just saw this a month later and, maybe u should go to college!
Autism isn't a disability, it's a gift.
I’m gonna be 100% honest, yes it does make me somewhat smarter - as an autistic, but it is definitely not a gift.
Autism is a disability, you probably don’t know how being Autistic is, I not Autistic.
It’s a disability. Source: autistic person here. If I am mistaken and you’re not neurotypical, it’s fine to see your own autism that way if you feel that way but don’t state it as a fact because as you can see I’m the third autistic person to tell you no.
@@TheIndigoSystem I not an Autistic person.

This is literally how narcissistic moms be, just straight up demons, don't wanna see anyone else happy and just care about nothing but dragging others into darkness with them. I may not relate to having autism but ik what it's like growing up with a controlling mom(especially when they take advantage of their disabled children) I can go on and on but this video is merely scratching the surface, super relatable.
It's bad enough to be unlucky enough to date a controlling partner , & worse still if it happens to be one of your family members.
Unfortunately, even your family members can be controlling, Isolate you,
Treat you like a child,
Doesn't let you have any freedom & independence,
Controls the purse strings,
I've got some of my own to add ,
Yep,
Controls who you associate with, & the kind of people to associate with,
Controls your hobbies, (eg sketching, like, dictate what kind of people you have in your artwork),
Controls what you buy,
(e.g. your family member or partner gets mad when you buy , say a 100th pair of shoes for example),
Checks your phone or emails,
Tells you what to eat, wear, & when to eat, wear, bathe, & sleep, & wake up,
With a toxic family member/partner , you're way better off without them.
All they do is make you miserable, & drag you down in to their toxic little world.
That's what Lauren's mom did to her in that storyline.
@@juliebrickley2562 straight truth.
Her Overprotective is to blame for her daughter being so unorganised .
Not to mention being so shy, insecure, & unsure of herself.
Her Overprotective mom has a lot of explaining to do.
That story is so triggering to me cause my mom was just like that in my school/cherry orchard years too.
I live in South London The U.K., not the USA.
My mom wouldn't ket me go to mainstream discos when everyone else was, & still makes me feel very bitter about it even now!.
I feel very sorry for lauren in that storyline.
Yeah, and how did she not call the police, her mother just technically broke in to her apartment, and twice!
