  • All of a sudden she's ready to move onto the next thing after crushing her current goals. Sometimes we have a little resistance to therapy because she just doesn't want to work but then there are days like today that she knocks it out of the park.

    As a teacher, it literally hurt my heart to hear that Abbie was forced to sit facing a wall at a school. I’m so thankful that you’ve found a school that works with her and pushes her to her full potential. I’m so glad that my school and district value each child and work to meet all of their needs!

      I say the experts dont know everything...I have autism (some where in the middle of the spectrum), didn't talk until I was 3. Was diagnosed with autism and bipolar at 10, a team of state doctor specialists stated I wouldn't make it past 8th grade due to all my co-issues. Ended up only missing 1.5 semesters from graduating college with a bachelor's before breaking down and not being able to resume.

    Abby has come so far since I've started watching your vlogs! I know that you've been doing school from home since COVID-19 started (I can't believe it's been four to six months already!) and now it's the summer holidays, but she's doing so well with her bag, with her speech therapy, her orientation, not freaking out whenever she comes home and now she's wearing a mask! I can't wait until Brandy comes back and we're able to see their dynamic after not having her there for so long! Is it weird for me to say that I miss seeing her in your vlogs (though I've said it before)? I'm a girl of routine and not having her in your vlogs is breaking my routine! Seriously, though, I'm glad to see Abby so much happier and how far she's come! You go, girl! By the way, that smile whilst she was playing in bed melted my heart!

    Abbie is doing so well wearing her mask! I understand how difficult it is for her to have things on her face/head, but I also appreciate how you're not using that as an "excuse" (if that's the right word) for at least not trying/teaching her to wear one. I'm so proud of her for how hard she's working in speech therapy. :)

    Hi Maass family! Professional seamstress here. I would inquire to find out if the fabric was prewashed before the masks were constructed. Anything made of natural materials like cotton, linen or blends of either should be prewashed to avoid shrinkage. If they are 100% cotton and where not, that would explain the shrinking issue.

    • @kwaktak
      @kwaktak 4 роки тому +4

      She may be mostly mute but she is definitely not "dumb," as they used to call it the Bad Old Days. She is clearly able to understand not only others' verbal communication but their moods and nonverbal communication as well. The incessant shoulder tapping and constant requests to do something else are typical teenage behavior. I like that Asa recognizes that but I don't think it's completely helpful to compliment her for using her words but not remaining on task. It's a judgment call though. You pick your battles or risk causing defiant behaviors. I say this as a dad who would reflexively say "no" and then encounter some surprisingly devious behaviors from my own child.

    i think it's really cool that Abbie is now going to bed in "regular" pajamas. At least in the portion of what we see, she doesn't sleep in the backwards onesies with a hoodie on over them. I also think it's really cool that in most of the pictures you guys post on social media Abbie is looking in the camera. Now I obviously don't see the pictures that don't get posted, but I see old pictures and old videos where almost all of the pictures of her she was looking anywhere but the camera. She's doing really great!

      Here’s what caused my concern:
      5:40, her hand is on the bottom of her shoe as she puts them on to go in the house.
      6:02, her hand is against her mouth whiles she’s stimming, walking toward the gate to the yard.
      In 22 seconds she’s transferred from the bottom of her shoe to her mouth.

    We live at Badin Lake in NC....I have like 8 of those floats. We keep 4 at the house just for the lake and 4 in the boat for when we just wanna jump off the boat and go swimming. They are the BEST floats

    My son has “super ADHD” if he doesn’t take pills at night he will not fall asleep. He takes clonidine and a 5 mg melatonin. I think you mentioned before that you give Abbie some thing to help her sleep. Just curious what is it that you give her? I don’t know but I’m thinking since she wakes up so many times during the night maybe she could possibly have something stronger. Of course I’m not a doctor I don’t know. Have you talked to her doctor about this?

    Wow! I just learned that my son (who is 5 with ASD) does the same thing! He has messy OCD like Abbie. I have tried everything. He loves cars, monster trucks, and animals and he always wants them on the living room floor or the couches. Just in a pile.

    I’m amazed that Abbie kept the mask on at all! Great for her! I wonder if the more she sees y’all with mask on is she more likely to attempt wearing it. 🤷‍♀️

    Why is he talking to the therapist about her like she’s not there. I have learning disabilities and I’m mentally disabled. . I hate when people talk about me, instead of with me.

      I know this may seem unfair or inconsiderate, but the conversation they are having is important for her and is difficult to have in a more private manner, if you will, due to the pandemic. I am a behavioral therapist and although I spend most of my sessions speaking directly to my kiddos, I need to have similar conversations at times with the behavioral analyst I work under in order to plan the most effective therapy plan. As Abby is working on her communication it is great for her father to speak the best he can on her behalf. I always appreciate when caregivers do the same for me when talking to my none verbal kiddos because they do not always have the ability quite yet to tell me what I need to be able to help them, whereas the caregiver may be able to give me insight. The end goal will be to be able to talk directly with the kiddos for the most part and I have to say it’s heartwarming to be able to do so and as a therapist I always would prefer getting to talk with them over the caregivers and not speak as if they were not there like you said.

      Why do you assume it wasn't Abby's choice to not be involved in the conversation?
      Sure some people can exclude those who are disabled but then the parent/carer should speak up.for the disabled person & ask the other person to include them.
      Often in professional meetings or in long conversations I find it overwhelming or I can't keep up, so I focus on my tablet & my mum will talk for me. If I hear something I disagree with I can speak up or show I disagree.
