My 5 yr grandson has issues with clothing. He hates to wear clothes, and prefers to be naked. One question I have: How do you deal with people (strangers) who are offended when they see a naked kid.

My daughter hates sweaters but her hands get really cold if she doesn’t wear live in San Francisco and it gets cold in the winter

Guys if your parents drink alcohol or smoke when your pregent the smoke and alcohol make the birth baby brain like boom boom and there don’t smoke womens or alcohol

Thank you so much ma'am

One: When applying for a passport (U.S.), get TSA “Pre,” “Clear,” and “Global Entry.” These make going through security faster and easier- shorter lines, fewer crowds, you don’t have to take off your shoes. Two: When making reservations, request seating in the bulkhead section. This is usually located directly behind first class and is usually at the front of business and economy sections. It has more legroom and is usually the quietest place on the plane. Three: ask to be first when boarding the plane. It will give more room, more quiet and more time for you to get settled in on the flight. I am an Inward (Autistic)- officially diagnosed as a kid but was not told about it. I only learned about this 6 years ago (I’m now 61)! The tips mentioned above have really helped me!

thank you very much

Both of my children have disabilities, I'm a single mom & they won't give me ssid for them

I heard some people claim that alcohol temporarily reduced their autism symptoms, but as an autistic myself, I don't share this experience.

I had never considered that getting off, would make it harder to get back on. I have an adult family member who is autistic and has a seizure disorder. She does work part-time but has disability payments to cover necessary medication (the part-time job does not have such insurance, and switching to full-time, would still involve a probationary period without insurance unless it's out-of-pocket, which she cannot afford). The medicines are necessary for her to stay alive. She is in a trap. At age 40, she cannot afford to live on her own. She has managed to live with another family member and buy a used car, which is amazing, but it has been hard. She has to track work hours carefully, so she doesn't go over the limit and disqualify herself for benefits, risking her life. My wish is that businesses and insurance companies would support people with serious conditions, who really want to be productive in society, but still need support to live. I would like to see insurance plans offered more for part-time work, or other supports like that.

My 12 year old child did not take international aeroplane @ the age of 7. Shortly after that incident, we did go for a 1 hour trip same year 2018 - now we want to take him to Singapore from Australia and I am stressing about the unknown

As a trans autistic woman. This really helps me understand that it’s NOT just the hormones. It’s a STIM that helps regulate. I can also speak that when I was an adolescent. I was chronic as well and practiced my sexuality, very unhealthy. I felt like a monster. I’m much more sex positive/smart now in my later 20s. Just took learning, with a very late autism diagnosis

I just need a reminder to do the task and the step by step instructions. I want people to say directly you stink. If you don't say you stink like body odor I won't know. Then tell me to shower. If I stink like I fart just tell me I fart and go to bathroom. If I poop my diaper say you poop your diaper lets get clean up. If you don't tell me I am wet diaper then I won't know like today I wet through my diaper today because I didn't know i was wet. Just say as is. I won't be upset because you are saying the truth and you help me with my hygiene and it makes you happy and me happy so I don't have skin issues or body odor. Including in social skills and behaviors and many other skills with multiple steps. I like to feel clean and and I don't like the smell and my skin feels yucky if I don't shower. The sensory issues of the shower is hard to cope with. The part with shower with too much pressure like after they fixed the pipes down the street at dads house made it hurt a bit. The sun or bright lights. The small space so having a shower chair was helping me and the Ballance. I wish to God people saw that before and got me a chair. I thought it was for people who can't stand or walk. Then to have the shower head come off and to have a way to turn off the water to soap up. The best part is the flower scent stuff is the part I want. The hot water bothers me. The steam bother me. Them hot water to cold air in winter so hard for me. I hate water in my face and ears. The part is bubble bath I am in water and more comfortable for me. The thing is I can't get in a bath tub.

Is it common for a 6 year old old girl to do it??? I don't know how to deal with this.

Thank you for being so open about the topic. 1:20, I’m also a chronic masturbator. It helps me regulate, and calms my mind. I think it’s the dopamine that I’m after.

We just got approved for my sons disability. In the letter I received there was a long list of rules about what it can and can’t be used for. it seems I can’t use it to supplement the income. I’ve lost having to stay home with him. Is there any chance you can make a video to clear that up?

Not meltdowns are the same as the tantrum

It’s 2024 do you have any updated information

Thank I work with 20 yrs she doesn't like bras

Awesome, thank you for sharing!

Thank you. I need to have this conversation

I live in Virginia and my son is autistic we get Medicaid but I am about to start working full time will he lose his benefits

I just here to say we own the spectrum

Subscribe and "like us below"! Well, ok! 😊

Now my son is 18 coverages have changed?

I would like to know more about Autism.

Is the parent Restricted from working because of the daughter on social security.

I am a 71 y o who adopted my grandchild who is on SS disability and will turn 16 soon. I would like for him to work part time in the summer for experience. I do need his SS income for our home budget. Will working part time affect his SS amount?

weirdo perverts. talk to your kid as a once a day and you clean it up. just tell himm to use a sock like normal kids. wow.

My daughter with Down syndrome has zero benefits ..

Disgusting!

Masturbating only one time a day seems crazy? I'm lucky if I even have the.... to enjoy it once or twice a week. All I want to do is have sex with a wife. This makes me feel like life can really leave you feeling crowded in a void.

For many of these children, the question has literally never been ‘should you get’ but ‘could you even get it?’

My son was diagnosed with autism at two years old, and my youngest daughter was diagnosed with syngap 1. It has been over a year and a half since I applied for SSI for my son and we barely got approved last month and we are still waiting to receive the backpay and monthly benefits so in reality it takes anywhere from one to two years to receive the benefits.

Just eat your own sperm after ejaculation to not lose oxytocin

My daughter is 8 yrs old and is autistic I am taking her on her first plane ride to Philippines, oh boy I’m a little nervous but I am staying prepared and positive :)

If you have a child who qualifies for SSI when they turn 18 they must go through recertification process as an ADULT and most will NOT qualify then anyway. So just know parent what they don’t tell you and what she’s not saying is 8 times out of ten your child will lose SSI at 18. If they can be a greeter at Walmart then they don’t qualify

Why are so many girls with as smashburger syndrome becoming transgender. I understand female's join cults 7 to 1 over men. Buuuut trans isn't a cult right. Statistical analysis is a son of a stitcher.

I was told to apply now because it hard to apply when their older?

thanks so much. we're having trouble figuring out how to teach it. the male autistic child is 10yrs of age and having erections. But recently this has gone beyond just the physiological reaction of getting an erect penis, but he's clearly having urges. but he doesn't know what to do. how to actually teach him what to do? should you try to teach "it" at all, or wait a little longer, perhaps a couple of years more? it's very hard to know what to do. edit: also I should add that a lot of the information in seeing is relating to verbal autistic kids. but in our case (my nephew) is minimally verbal (understands but doesn't speak fully except in segmented sentences and words mostly, sometimes fill sentences, but can't have normal conversations. affirms something by repeating and that kind of communications)

The way things are going u can’t count on what programs are around 20 yrs from now

The good thing is they can work full time and the federal government not need to know.

I have a nonverbal, autistic 6 year old son. I attempted to get a disability benefit for him but was told that my income was too high. So, I went another route for his benefit later. I opened up a custodial brokerage account for him(3 years ago). I intended to deposit his full amount of disability benefits each month in to his brokerage account had he qualified. That way later in life he would not have to worry about income.

I’m autistic and telling every autistic person (even though your not autistic) that parents should treat there kids like there special needs when not all of them are and not all autistic people are the same.

I wish, i could tell you, what is going on.😂🎉 Bi polar RS, ASD, ADHD I'm stopped rly early to go to school. Germany is awful 😅

So helpful

I usually wear a utility kilt which works well unless cold weather.

I don’t mean to be mean, but Ai think it’s deeply screwed up that you mentioned your son’s masturbation habits in this video knowing full well that he would be deeply embarrassed, and I stopped watching the video at that point. I would be furious if my parents saw me masturbating and then decided to announce that fact to the entire world.

The young adult can do volunteer work and see it they can handle it. No point in sacrificing almost 20 years of SS income. come on now.

I got denied Social Security disability, after acquiring footdrop from spine trauma. They just told me to switch careers and go find something else to do. So I can only imagine how difficult it is to get assistance if you are slightly autistic. It’s gotta be rough.
