    Unfortunately Autism is misdiagnosed a lot. However he has excelled a lot! Kids with autism are very smart . He is incredibly smart! I work with preschoolers on the spectrum and they are doing the exact same thing Jayden is doing. I love how the services are working out great for him!

    I have autism and I know the struggle of doing a lot of things. One of the biggest challenges for me is being able to communicate my emotions and thoughts. I couldn't fully do this until almost high school. It takes a strong woman to be a mother to someone with autism and for your son to have 2 mom's only makes his chances of being independent when he is my age a lot higher. He is doing great. Keep up the good work. You guys are great moms.

    I'm autistic and people debated about it my whole life. I was diagnosed at 15. You are so right that it is not negative if he is diagnosed. He's the same person either way! And autism comes with struggles, but it also comes with awesome uniqueness and strengths.

    It makes me so happy that Jayden has such loving and supportive parents and that you've been so positive about his personality and possible autism diagnosis from the beginning. Your kids are truly lucky to have that support, no matter what the label (or lack of) is. We were told that I was on the spectrum when I was 8 and my mom REFUSED to accept the diagnosis, denied it happened, and therefore I missed out on a lot of the support and services that likely would have helped. 💙

    Ebony you are ON POINT! You are the epitome of a great mom(mommy as your kids refer to you as) and are doing what every parent and person should do by seeing the child for them and not their potential/ concrete diagnosis. I resect that so much as I too have a disability and think it is very important to look at all aspects of a person and not just half or a quarter of what makes up their personality/ being. And also 💙
    Keep up the good work💙

    I love how you treat your children, both you and your wife, how you raise them teaching them at their own pace and always respecting the way they are, everything about them. As a trans boy, I have not felt much respect from my parents even to my tastes since I was really young, it is so nice you give your children space to grow and develope being themselves.

  • @IntensityOverdrive
    @IntensityOverdrive 4 роки тому +25

    I'm pretty sure I have autism and I would never have been diagnosed as a child because I would never have "needed" it; my mom probably also is on the spectrum and I did okay in places like school where they usually "catch" autistic kids because the kids start having trouble but otherwise I had my different-than-general needs met. It's all a spectrum so some autistic people will be more noticeable and some won't be, and so I think it's awesome Jayden will keep getting access to those services if they're helping him because I think all kids should have access to what helps regardless of diagnosis or not.
    I love how y'all move with each individual child at their own pace because imo that's the most important part of child raising that sometimes gets overlooked in favor of general milestones. And blue heart emoji bc I'm on laptop, but keep up the good work! I can't imagine potty training one boy let alone two LOL

    My nephew is autistic he's 5 years old and he is yet to talk and he still can't feed himself yet (other than like finger foods) but he's very smart and a loving kid. Jayden (I hope I spelled his name right. Correct me if I'm wrong.) seems like my nephew but in different ways. Just the way he acts reminds me of my nephew Dominic. Dominic is at the low functioning end of the spectrum so obviously there is gonna be differences between the two as, if Jayden is on the spectrum, no kids are the same and they may fall into different places. Just remember that his diagnoses or lack thereof doesn't change who he is as a person, in fact it's part of what makes him who he is. It doesn't mean anything is wrong with him or that he's slow or anything it just means he's different in his own way and has his own challenges he has to face. He seems like a smart and loving kid and I believe with y'all working with him he'll be able to do whatever he sets his mind to. Sorry for the long comment but anyway I just wanted to say I wish you all the best and I love watching y'all's videos! Keep on doing your thing!

  • @jamieloerts3778
    @jamieloerts3778 4 роки тому +2

    He is just like my son! My boy is 17 yrs now but he still has his ticks. Lines up his train collection, tiptoe walks and flaps his hands when he is tired or excited, ahead of kids his age, isn't a big touchy feely person, loves to talk about his favorite things ( science, math, mechanics, and trains ) , shows his love differently but makes sure he knows you know, etc..... anyway I feel like you guys are doing amazing! When my guy was potty training it did take a while. He would do okay during the day after about 3 yrs and at night he didn't fully potty train till 5 yrs. We would put cheerios in the toilet and have him practice aiming! He loved it and quickly learned after introducing the cheerios! Good luck! Keep up the great parenting!

I also love the fact that he eats different variations of the same food (chicken nuggets from McDonald’s, store bought, home made) that helps tremendously with eating different textured foods. I love you guys!!

    @eeyoreismyspiritanimal8761 4 роки тому +1

    If you feel as if he still needs care, but school is saying that he is aged out or test at standard level... Do not settle for that!!! I fought for 4years to get my daughter on an individualized education plan. The school and in particular the principal kept saying she would never qualify. I'm so glad you have a team for him now, but in my state, my kids qualified for therapists until age 3 and then they age out and the school system is supposed to step in . It was never maid public knowledge and still isn't that there are waiver programs available and check into your particular states qualification and guidelines, but the waiting list can be several years for certain types. For instance the Michelle P. Waiver is at least 3 but up to 6. You have a better chance if you get a different waiver first, and still be on the waiting list for another.

    Gosh I don't miss potty training our son.🙃 Although he caught on to peeing in the potty pretty quickly. Pooping was a different experience completely.
    What ended up working best was combination of reading potty books, a potty chart with a sticker for pee & two for poop, we'd all sing a song about having gone potty, and what really encouraged going poop (which seemed to scare him) a special sweet treat - m&m's worked great! We also had the same flushing potty that you had. So yea... We did ALL the things and they worked!
    Best of luck with training your kiddos. Cause it's so true that every kid is on their own time and can't be rushed or compared to others.🙂 PS- Miss Olivia is getting so big!

    💙 I was going to say the same thing about it really does not matter as long as he is getting the help he needs. I was the only day care that took kids on the spectrum in my town when I was doing day care. I would tell the parents to not worry about the DX and to fight more for the IEPs at school and make sure they are getting the services the child needs. That is more important then fighting for a DX. Just my opinion after helping many fight the fight for IEPs and services.

My middle child took longer his personality is stubborn. My baby who is now 3 just now "fully" potty trained. When I say fully I mean we can go out in public in underwear YAY! Just remember consistency is KEY. Make sure they go every 45 mins. Don't make them sit longer than 5 mins because they will become resistant. Go before you leave home, go when u get to where u going. As for going #2 my son goes around the same time daily! I tell him we are going to poop I give him motivation by telling him we are going to do his favorite activity when he poops. Usually it's cars, magnetic blocks, orbees, or slime lol
