It’s so obvious how hard she’s actually working! Like when she’s trying to blow a long note in the flute. She’s really trying hard.
I agree. She seemed to be getting a little frustrated there for a minute, but she was resilient and pulled through. Abby's a superstar!
I freakin' LOVED that sly little smile at 9:53.
Love her!
Yeah
I saw her efforts to say a word. She is really trying hard.
Abbie has THE most amazing team of therapist, doctors, teachers and caregivers. You guys have really given her the best of the best.
I wonder how much that's all therapies costs 😯
@@askeemee6530 Abbie receives a lot of therapies at school. Also, insurance may pay for some of the therapies at home. Sometimes there are grants families can get for respite pay too. I don't know how much out of pocket the Maass family has to pay but I do know they have done their research and have been able to give Abbie the therapies she needs.
@@askeemee6530 I got occupational, speech, and physical therapy, the school provided it for me and my parents never paid for any of it.
Askee mee I’ve also have had speech therapy and my parents have never had to pay for it. I also had a learning disability that I needed more help my parents also didn’t pay for that.
Thanks for the responses. I wish here in my country special need children could have best therapies with low cost, even free. Usually the parents have to pay a lot.
The speech path was talking about how she needs to work on breath support and using her voice and face muscles in less short spurts. That all makes a lot of sense when you see abby working. It's kind of interesting that one of her most common stims is a yelling stim
I got this herbal supplement from Dr Oyalo channel and used it on my son for 4week and within the period of using it there was positive changes which really urge me to continue and I can say my son is free from autism now.
Well, stims are involuntary. People like Abbey can often produce motor patterns involuntarily (speech is a type of motor) but they can't reliably produce the same motor pattern at will.
A lot of people with severe autism talk about how most of the few words that come out of their mouths don't actually match what they want to say. (THey speak their thoughts through writing/typing/letter boards)
Or another thing is they will perform actions through their body that don't match their own intentions, e.g. pouring a whole bottle of milk down the sink, but they might struggle to get control over their bodies to intentionally pour themselves a glass of milk.
Whether an action is purposeful or not is key. they live in unruly bodies.
when she made the m sound i nearly cried and i dont even know why. you guys touch my heart so much! dont stop doing what youre doing
My heart lit right up.
Ditto
Same 😍😍😭😭
I know why ,it sounded like she said Mommy 😪
@@Rippenhengst you make no sense. dont come here to be mean. leave.
All the fish bubbles! Our favorite stim. Have you put on her tablet a button “I want to go upstairs and yell”? Maybe if it is on her tablet she won’t see it as a punishment. This video is so interesting. Love you guys!
That's an awesome idea!
Wow I did not even think of that. Such an interesting point of view.
Jessica Smith That Is A Great Idea!!!
Or even the phrase "i need to yell"
I got this herbal supplement from Dr Oyalo channel and used it on my son for 4week and within the period of using it there was positive changes which really urge me to continue and I can say my son is free from autism now.
You can tell there is a bond between Abbie and Jill.

I really enjoyed learning about this therapy even though my children aren’t autistic
Lol me neither, I have no kids lol
Me too!! I think it was so fascinating!
Me too
Me too same more of this!!!

i mean, when you think about it, talking is a complicated multi-step process. first you have to learn how to move the muscles in your mouth and throat, then you need to learn the sounds, and then you need to string all of them together and form sentences and words. but most of us learned that process so young it seems simple. from watching the vlogs and watching Abbie learn how to put away groceries i noticed how complicated things like that actually are. all of the matching and differenciating between hot and cold, and memorizing what goes where. Personally, i believe that Abbie still has to form the connection in her brain between the thought of wanting something, and then the process of speaking it out loud. because right now, all she has to do is think of what she wants, remember the sign, and then move her hand. or she has to think of what she wants, get her ipad, and find the symbol. but to talk? she'd have to think of what she wants, get her muscles to move in a way that makes the letter sounds, and control the air flow in order to communicate. it's a lot of stuff to remember and do. i think you guys are a wonderful family and I really appreciate all of you. your vlogs and channel are amazing and you all are amazing people.
So true
Abbie has come a long way. I am happy she understands that when she does want something, she needs to communicate it somehow, whether it be sign or iPad. That is a huge step and needed to happen before adding speech into the mix as that is the hardest for her to master. I like her speech therapist. She knows what she is doing and actually cares about her students too.
Yes! You don't even realise how complicated those "everyday" skills like verbal communication, walking etc are until you have to teach or re-teach someone those skills. E.g. Abbie trying to learn the right mouth and breathing techniques to form sounds, physical rehabilitation walking after a leg/spinal injury, like how do you even teach language to a deaf kid when hearing kids pick it up innately from listening to us babbling on? I guess the teams that work with special needs clients and early childhood would know how important - and often complex - things like speech, fine motor skills, feeding etc are, and how people outside of those worlds might take those skills for granted.
@@ceekay3143 Most deaf people are not 100% deaf. They have some hearing that helps when trying to teach speech. They learn sounds and put them together for words. You hold their hand up to your face and let them feel the air with certain sounds. You put their hand on your throat so they can feel sounds that use the voice. The speech teachers do a lot with deaf kids.
The connection between the thought of wanting something and then communicating it is the same no matter if Abbie chooses to sign, use the iPad, or to speak. The muscle movements eventually become automatic.
As a speech path grad student, this is very interesting to me because I haven't had exposure to therapy for nonverbal kids!
Hi, fellow speech path grad student here. Our professor's strongly discourage therapy involving non-speech oral motor movements as a therapy to improve speech because there is NO evidence to support here. Please do your research into different therapies once you become a clinician. Sometimes clinics and employers will ask us to do therapies will ZERO scientific evidence to support it.
Here are 2 papers supplied by my professor showing why these therapies are ineffective:
Lee, AS-Y. & Gibbon F.E. (2015). Non-speech oral motor treatment for children with developmental speech sound disorders. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 3, CD009383.
McCauley, R., Strand, E., Lof, G.L., Schooling, T., & Frymark, T. (2009). Evidence-based systematic review: Effects of non-speech oral motor exercises on speech. American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology. 18, 343-360.
Agreed with the poster above. These are NSOMEs, and they have no research base :(
@A N For speech pathologists the goal is to give our clients their best shot at success, and that is MOST likely to happen for therapies that have been proven effective. There are many other therapy techniques to try and get Abby to produce speech. Therapies which have children practice speech sounds themselves have been proven more effective than practicing non-speech movements.
@A N & savstrange & sarah Jones CAN YOU PLEASE GET THE HECK OUT OF HERE WITH THAT MESS! Let a parent try & dream of possibilities. This could possibly be the breakthrough the world has been waiting for! No matter what from this families 1st vlogs until now Abbster has progressed so much it's amazing to see. She may not speak but she understands MORE than before & for her to be able to say "yes or no" whichever way she can is PROGRESS!
So, AGAIN, PLEASE TAKE THAT TO YOUR PROFESSOR SARAH JONES & THE REST OF YOU!!!
I am obviously not Abby's clinician, nor have I done a comprehensive assessment on her so I do not have all the pieces to tell you a specific therapy which would be best in her case because it varies for each person and their specific speech and language challenges. But it is always best practice to choose therapy approaches with at least some statistical evidence.
This speech pathologist is incredible!! I love how patient and caring she is working with Abigail!! Love this video :D

It's very interesting to see how for "regular" people most of these things develop naturally, but for people on the spectrum, it is just another thing they have to work on additionally in order to be comfortable or at least that will make their everyday life easier.

new found respect for speech therapists. they go into people's mouths, have to endure colds or viruses, bitten fingers, possible gagging. i had no idea what these people did until now!

Yes

This was such an eye opener! Who would have thought we needed so many muscles to make ONE SOUND much less talk? Her therapist explained and demonstrated with Abbie so simply and clearly it was easy to understand! Like with blowing bubbles-I have COPD and when blowing bubbles we are NOT trying to blow hard making lots of bubbles we need to do a slow steady exhale so it comes out as one giant bubble. For negative pressure to get oxygenated. And it is really HARD! It was so awesome to see Abbie's progress!
Abbie may never talk, BUT she is always communicating

The concentration in this vlog was amazing, Abbie nailed it and you see she really wanted to try and wanted to achieve. She's brilliant and an inspiration to those of us who give up too easily. Love you Abbie ❤️💜❤️💜
As a fellow autistic I know that persistence pays off

I swear it sounds like shes saying mom and that melts my heart
“If it was that easy I would do it” How validating!! I love her!! ❤️

I love seeing all of abbies advancements throughout the years. I feel in the last year shes definitely had leaps and bounds in learning.

I am currently going to school and studying to become a Speech Language Pathologist!
Wonderful!
Abbie: "Candy"
Therapist: "Nooo we gotta work for more candy"
So sweet and funny

This is amazing! Abbie has the kindest, smartest, and most supportive therapists, teachers, and caregivers!

I only have very short periods of time when I lose the ability to talk. But obviously my body has the required strength and movement there for me so I can’t communicate fully once it passes. I can’t imagine how exhausting and frustrating it must be to have to work so hard for such slow progress while watching most of the world do it with ease!
She’s so incredibly patient. I’d love to know what everything she thinks during the session
That chair actually exist in just about every single home in Norway. They make it over here, it's called Stokke Tripptrapp and grows with the child from they learn to sit until they are able to sit comfortably in an full size chair. They are amazing!
When he mentioned the chair I was currently on one of them. I never gave it up even though it doesn't fit me well anymore.
They are extremely popular in Germany too! Usually they are just called "Tripptrapp" :-) They are adjustable from a baby's first feeding chair to a young teenager (if you like), with very simple changes! And they are very safe from tipping over, durable & easy to clean! :-D
@@bellisperennis42 Actually, you can now get an attachment so that you can use it even for a newborn. And yes, they are awesome, we still have one!
Same here in Denmark, we have one too!
Yup, we use them in the Netherlands to. You can buy all kind of extensions to use it from born to like 10 years old.
I am normally a silent observer I have been watching for almost year! I am from Victoria in Australia and recently our government has made a stream of Autism awareness "advertisements" and it is sparking conversations for many people here and its so fantastic! I have used it to be able to educate my family and work mates and talk about your family. Just wanted to share this little bit of positivity :)

I realized so many things because of this channel. Abby is so lucky to have this kind of environment. Would love to see more therapies for Abby.
I really want to thank you so much for this video! I never realized how much goes into someone just saying mmm you can see how much Abbie is really trying. I always wondered how come Abbie isn’t able to move her mouth and hands the way we can and the way you explained it was really well!

I had the biggest smile on my face when I heard Abbie copy the "m" sound 😁 it's very interesting seeing what goes on in speech therapy because those of us that have no difficulties with it, we don't have to think about and plan how to make certain sounds cause it's just an easy thing. To see the amount of brain power and muscles that go into just making a simple "E" sound or as the therapist said getting food out your mouth is really amazing and I'm so glad that we have people like this in the world who specialize in it and can help. Abbie is doing amazing, I've been following for a year now and she has accomplished so much in that short time, her stim sounds are constantly different, her vocal communication is more clear and she's just grown into a very happy teen. I'm so thankful that we get to witness her develop these skills and watch the family grow, you've already taught me so much and not all of it is even about autism. Such a beautiful family and I'm excited to see what the future brings for you all 😁
This is honestly one of the best videos I've ever watched of yours. So amazing to see health care professionals who are so knowledgeable about what they're doing and they actually care!! Abby did a beautiful job and it's so easy to see how hard she's trying. That girl is honestly an inspiration and she wouldn't be where she is without you all as a family. Can't wait to continue to watch her thrive. Thank you for brightening my day in this horrible time. Love to you all from Liverpool, England x
Brought tears to my eyes seeing try so hard. She is such as sweet precious girl and I hope to one day get to meet her.

I've been watching you all while I've been home for the past week and had more free time to catch up on my favorite UA-cam vloggers! So much love to you all!❤️🧩
I really enjoy videos like this, seeing her progress in speech therapy. Great job Abigail!

Thank you for sharing..brought tears to my eyes.. she does really well in her sessions.. you so deserve the best dad award..
My daughter is Asperger's, I wish we would have gotten the help for her. She is a functioning Asperger's, but is still so limited. She lives on her own, but it's still very dependent on me. Y'all make ASD look so simple. Lol I know it isn't! You have such an amazing tribe! I really enjoy watching y'all.
Abby is an amazing human...I am in awe of how much I've seen her change in the year I've been watching..she def puts in the work...great job girl💖
Her SLP did an amazing job in this video and the other (I just watched) explaining and demonstrating why horn therapy, other oral motor tools, and PROMPT can be excellent ways to develop motor skills in the mouth; the finest of all motor movements! The routine and sensory component are also beneficial and are clearly evident with your Abigail. Thank you for sharing! -A fellow SLP
I wish my son had this much sophisticated knowlageble therapists ! Wishing all the best wishes and goodlucks to sweet Abbie !
Thank you for sharing Abbie with us! She is doing so well. My ASD kiddo is verbal so we don't have the same struggle, however being able to watch you guys helps me feel like I'm not alone.
Does Abbey get really tired after speech therapy, our daughters used to get really cranky after therapy our oldest always had to have a sleep. I had a magical moment when watching this and a tear or two,(it was the recognition of hands) that moment when you are doing the therapy thing, and you realize that you are not the only family doing therapy with your children. your not alone. Your so proud of how hard your kids are working you want to share it with others but the other doesn't always get the miracle that that moment was. Thank you.
This was so awesome to watch, thank you for sharing! I am a middle school SPED TA and this was really interesting to watch, it showed me what my students go through and opened my eyes to the hard work they put in just like Abbie. She is doing amazing!
Thank you for showing us an in depth therapy session! I am a second year Speech-Language Pathology graduate student and this is so very helpful. Yes, these practices may not be completely evidence based, but they also show that different techniques work for different individuals. Others can think what they want, but watching how Abbie's communication has evolved over the years is, in my opinion, absolutely amazing!! Love you guys!! Please keep posting therapy videos!
This Vlog made me tear up. I have watched so many of your vlogs and this is the first time I saw Abbie so relaxed and connected. She really likes and trusts that therapist. And the sound she made when she was working on her lips. Loved it!

This video is fascinating. My experience with speech therapists as a special education teacher has been with students who are verbal. Our therapist works with them on stringing more words together to create longer and more complex phrases and sentences, eye contact, social cues, starting and maintaining conversations and things like that. This is a whole different side of speech therapy I have never seen before. It makes a lot of sense. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. Thank Ms. Jill as well for being willing to let you film and share this. And great job working so hard Abbie!
This is incredible!!! I am a Speech Language Pathology student and it really cements my passion seeing Abbie achieve goals! I'd love to see more videos like this and maybe even more explanation from Jill about what she's doing, keep it up :)

That is amazing stuff right there. What a genius Mrs. Jill. She has great repore and control over abbeys attention. She was really paying attention to her so well. I think she understands and is trying to talk there.
That was fantastic she did great you guys are fantastic parents with everthing you do for your kids.
Almost 10 years ago I was diagnosed with mild aspergers. I can still talk normally and it may not seem like I even have aspergers. But when it comes to thoughts or feelings I don't like. I can relate a lot to Abbie and the way she communiticates. She has such an amazing personality. It's very inspiring. Thank you for your videos.
My Grandson has Autism he's 7 and he doesn't talk much he does say the odd word but I think Abby is great your videos have helped me to help my grandson Thank you.
This was very insightful and informational. I love when you guys post videos like this where we can get educated and possibly pass this on to someone else who might need it
im so proud of abbie and the work shes putting into trying to speak! you can see she gets frustrated but she doesnt give up! ofc with the help of family and doctors. but you can see shes trying hard! she came a long way. what an amazing girl

I am so grateful to you and your family for sharing your journey with the world!! I am studying to be an SLP and your videos give me a cheesy grin every time!! Abby is SUCH and absolute inspiration and your support is the BEST!! Thank you!!!
The therapists and doctors and helpers that you have in your lives are just incredible people! I adore this channel, I adore your family! And I’m learning so much!!
Hard work and dedication. "It doesnt gets easier, it gets better" You go Abigail🖤
Thanks for bringing us along and showing us what Ms Jill and Abbie do during these sessions. Some of these things I’ve never thought about in the way the mouth moves in certain circumstances. You’re a great teacher Abbie...you’re doing fantastic!!
licking an ice cream cone I have heard is a helpful way to help kids strengthen their tongue muscle by holding it far enough from her face so she has to stretch her tongue . Could be a fun way to help with speech therapy!
I’m SO GLAD you did this video! I never understood why Abbie would get the bread stuck on the roof of her mouth. I just took your word for it because you and Priscilla know what works for her. It’s amazing how much goes into working those muscles in her mouth and she cooperates AND LOVES her therapist! I’m just amazed....now back to the video
Im in the NSU grad program for Speech Language Pathology. And this was so amazing to watch something I am learning so much about and applied to a child like Abby 🤟🏻

I think this is my favorite video you’ve put out yet. It was so informative and I learned a lot. Thank you for sharing!
When her teacher said its not UA-cam time Abby had such a smirk... total teenager moment there I loved that
Abbie totally knew she nailed the mmm sound. Warmed my heart. She had a giant smile right after she did it!
Loved this video, it's making me understand so much more about speech but also Abby's language and communication. Thank you!
Abby is amazing. She has matured so much and she knows the therapist is trying to help her! Keep working Abby
1. We love ya!
This was so cool to watch! Abby’s communication skills are really improving! A family friend of ours that I nanny for has 2 daughters with autism, one is verbal, the other is non-verbal. They’re only 4 (they’re fraternal twins) but I always send them your videos about what they can learn about therapy for their girls so they can get a first hand look at it!
I'm so thankful to be able to watch something great right now 😢 I'm in the ICU with my 5 year old right now... so ty for sharing great content 💛
I never realized how much speech therapy covers. Thank you so much for sharing!! This was extremely eye opening.
As an SLP in my clinical fellowship that works with children and young adults on the spectrum, thank you so much for sharing this!
Miss Jill is so calming.. you can tell she absolutely cares about Abbie. Hearing her make that “M” sound loud and clear was amazing. Thank you for opening up about this part of her life 💚💙
Abbie you did amazing x thank you for allowing to part of your therapy x

This lady is amazing at her job and working with Abbie!! Beautiful ❤️
Fascinating! I could have watched hours of that. (Oh, and greetings & love from Arizona.)
Me too 😊
Same. :-) Sentiment and where I live. LOL
Thanks for bringing us along to the speech app! So cool to see! Great job Abbie! You are working so hard 💕
Bless abby and your whole family and everyone working with her! I love Abby to pieces and I praise her over every little accomplishment she does!
Abbie worked so hard with her amazing speech therapist today! Loved this interesting video! Thank you for showing us how Abbie is learning communication. I am so proud of her efforts!👍💖😊
Ms. Jill sparked my heart, she did an amazing job with Abbie. I haven't been following your families blog for very long but I am so thankful I found y'all. ♥️ I like M&Ms but would have asked for Smarties anyway like Abbie!!! She gets me.
Thank you for allowing us to watch Abbie working so hard.. Jill is a wonderful teacher for Abbie.
Great job Abbie!!! So proud of you girl!!!! Love it!!!!! She is doing awesome as usual!!!
That was amazing! My heart feels so warm. Hearing her make that sound was so exciting. You go girl!
So awesome! I remember these days with my boys when they were younger. I'm amazed how Abbie is still able to grasp new skills at her age. We were constantly told we had a small window of time to get my boys verbal and functioning at a higher level. True to a point but obviously not seeing Miss Abbie. Keep up the great work guys!!

Asa, thank you so much for sharing Abbie’s speech therapy session. It was so interesting and informative. Abbie’s therapist is great!
Wow. 👍👍👍Thats really impressive! I think Abbie will totally master this, & hopefully learn at least the bare minimum to communicate with. Her patience was on point too.Practice, practice, practice Abbie! U go girl.👌👌👌
My son worked with a wonderful speech pathologist for his stutter, we also got outside help, as well! Both women were amazing ❤️❤️
Asa thank you for educating us on all different parts of Autism. I can't tell you enough how thankful I am that i have learned so much from this channel. Abbie has come such a long way due to you and your families dedication.

You do such an amazing job with Abby! Loved watching the matching colors lessons. I am a special education teacher with a classroom of 8 students (ASD, Anxiety, Social and emotional disabilities). I miss my kids so much!
We started virtual teaching three weeks ago. There are 5 live 30 minute sessions a day. I couldn’t be more impressed with them throughout this whole new way of teaching! They need the structure, as you know, and look forward to seeing me, other peers and my 2 paraprofessionals. I am amazed by them everyday!
Not sure how they are going to handle the latest news from today though. School is out for the remainder of the year. The morning meeting should be interesting!
Keep up the great work, stay safe and healthy ❤️ Kim. Hanson, MA
Love, love, love this video! I feel like I learned so much and smiled so big when Ab was successful. Love you guys ❤
I just found your UA-cam channel through your Facebook page and I am so excited to keep up to date with your lives. I'm currently been really bored with an extended spring break with college and have been using my spare time to watch some of your videos. Keep it up! 😊
I love this video!! Thank you for sharing this!! I cried and cheered at her successes...and cried and felt her struggles. Please hug your sweet little girl from me!! XO
Very interesting. Even though Abbie doesn’t talk and she has her way of communicating, we have learned it by you sharing and I feel we know what she’s saying and how she feels about different things. So educational. Thank you. Knowledge Is Power♥️
My son absolutely adores watching all of you & has since he was about a year old. He’s now three & today for the first time EVER he started copying Abbie. I felt a small urge to stop him but then stopped myself & asked him, “Buddy, what are you doing?”. He said, “I’m making happy noises! Abbie happy mama. Lyric happy too!!” 😭 I hope he never sees people differently. He loves everyone SO much!
Abbie your soo smart and brave and strong and I will NEVER give up on you!! I love you sweet girl..your making mad progress on Sooo many things!!!
Thank you for sharing the amazing process of Abbie in therapy. It was absolutely fascinating, touching and just beautiful watching this beautiful soul. You are truly blessed and the smile she gave you just fills my heart! With all the negativity in todays world, Abigail Maas is a shining light of pure love, joy and candy 🥰🥰
That quote at the end you said about verbal communication being an action rather than vocalized really gave me a sense of relief helping a young boy I work with. Thank you
Awesome! I’m glad to see her progress it’s really cool! No matter how she does it working toward better communication is always great!
As a behavioural therapist i have leant so so much, this is an eye opener.
I have just leant a new skill to work with my client A . thank you so much for shearing
I really enjoyed this video. It's nice to see how Abbie is challenged and learns.
This is a very interesting video. I have noticed Abigail making new sounds lately that sound like words. Abbie is so extremely smart and full of surprises, I think she will one day surprise us with a word.. 😲🙏❤️
