    Your family is a miracle. I am humbled by the emotional intelligence of your other three children. I watch this channel when I need to see God working in this world, bc believe me: He is right there in y’all’s videos.

    I love seeing Simon talking into that microphone attached to your phone, like how you use the iPad for Ezra to communicate what he wants. My cousin Trey may have Autism but I still love him, anyway, growing up he only had a problem with his behavior and how expressing how he feels. You're doing a wonderful job raising your two young boys as a mother and certainly can't wait to see the next video you post.😊😊😊

    A helpful tip my son’s therapists have shown me is to stop asking him to “say (insert word)”. So instead of saying, “say ball” just simply play along and say “here comes the ball” or ask “you want the ball?” And then my son will either sign or verbally try to say ball. But if I constantly ask him “say this” or “say that” it stresses him out.
    This is more for kids like Ezra than Simon who is more comfortable being asked to say something.

    This is such a helpful and awesome video! It’s amazing how helpful technology can be for helping anyone with autism. Simons speech is getting so good. He says his letters very clearly. Him and Ezra have come a long way with communication❤ I didn’t start talking until I was 3 and my mom would pick every week to try to get me to say and would use it a lot to help me learn it

    Lovely family! Could I ask, what app are you using on the phone to motivate Simon to using and recording his voice. Seeing the green bars go up and down is definitely a creative and fun way to make them want to make sounds and speak. Want to give that a try! Moreover, if you have a suggestion for which microphone to buy that attaches to the phone, that would be appreciated too. Thank you for sharing your family's journey. It has been incredibly helpful, so thanks a lot :) Blessings!

    • @7Aheadfamily
      @7Aheadfamily  Рік тому

      Thank you so much for watching and commenting. ❤️ Yes, you can download the app for free (MOTIV Audio), the mic that we use is the Shure MV88+, which is a great Mic, but probably overkill just for a child to see the bars. :-) You could just use the app with your device, but if you have a need for good audio quality as well, that Mic works well.

    When unable to speak, I use Google Translate on my phone just English to English which allows me to have it read out loud, although I recently got another app specifically meant for non-speaking people to be able to communicate effectively. Or if unable to use the phone for any reason, I also have pen and paper usually nearby even went out and about that I can use.
