Recently found you guys a few days ago. I don't have anybody in my family who has autism, but we have a little boy in my church's preschool room who is non-verbal and has autism. Your guys' videos have really helped me. Thank you for teaching me more & more everyday.

[@iLUVmyADIDAS]

Literally just found your channel a couple of days ago and im so happy i did!!! Immediately subscribed. Im an IA in a pre-K autism classroom and i always try to learn more and more everyday to make my students learning fun. Thank you guys for sharing your lives with us. Also you should call us Abinators :). I look forward to future videos

[@fatheringautism]

I like that...Abinators. Glad you found the channel. Thanks for watching!

[@jillrosenblum3504]

I love y'alls channel. Everyday a vlog is up my day becomes instantly better. You are such a loving family. I love learning more about the ups and downs of asd. Your positive attitude and outlook of life inspires me. When I grow up my goal is to be able to impact those who have autism, and create awareness. Please never stop making videos❤️

[@mariahnicole1474]

Recently came across this channel and you guys are rock stars. I'm not connected with anyone who is autistic or related to the autism community, so you guys have been really insightful into something i was kinda ignorant about. I've totally subscribed and I think you guys are awesome. God bless you guys!!

[@yadielnieves2894]

Mariah Nicole me too i came across them yesterday and I totally agree with you.

[@asde81]

[@cecor6116]

We can be called Puzzle Pieces or something like that

[@NoelsBIGfamilylife]

We are a large family of 8 and our youngest is autistic and hyperlexic

[@Peach_hindu]

Puzzle people. Puzzle Family. AU fam. AU squad

[@debbiejordan5154]

I love y'all! Can Priscilla show us more of her cooking 😋 I love cooking videos and everything y'all make looks amazing 😉

[@ffchic18]

Especially the healthy recipes... salads and stuff get boring when trying to lose weight lol.

[@gourmet2276]

ideas art is beautiful.

[@Peach1021j]

I am in love with your vlogs! I am a single mom to a 5 yr old Autistic girl. It's just her and i against the world and your videos are a positive means for me to view another family going through similar things. You and your family are wonderful! I just have a question, is it possible to know the songs you use in your vlogs??

[@meanttobe3872]

I've not seen atypical yet but I've noticed that a lot of young people with autism were getting mad at it while others saying that although it has it's problems they like the series generally and they feel that the characters are relatable.

[@curtbrown4101]

I enjoy it very much

[@jackiet1716]

Lol do I gotta ask about the blue clock in the background. For some reason...it just made me laugh hanging up next to these very cool looking Star Wars stuff. Lol is it from a particular show/comic book?

[@adrianasala2780]

Great video again guys

[@Diwondermum]

How about the jigsaw pieces?? Pieces for short!! That's my suggestion for a name for us....many pieces make up a life picture!!

[@heated_ttv5596]

@ 7:00 i thought they were going to eat sausage for lunch

[@marinka529]

I am not sure if you know of this or are interested in it, but there is a show that will be on ABC either Fall 2017 or Winter/Spring 2018 (I think Fall) It is called "The Good Doctor" about a doctor (surgeon) with Autism and Savant Syndrome.

[@fatheringautism]

+marinka529 I saw the ad for it. Looks interesting.

[@jessicakennedy4333]

Love you guys ❤

[@sofiastons4589]

We could be called the Puzzle Family or something like that. I feel like it should have something to do with the puzzle pieces of your channel and on your glasses.

[@melissaarkell4510]

G'day guys, just wondering where we post things to you guys? Cheers Mel

[@rb290182]

Love love loved this vlog... such an awesome family. I get notified too but coz of the time difference I get a bit behind. Your biggest fan from India.

[@matthewsmith5655]

I just found your video on potty training just brilliant about counting down. My daughter has Down syndrome and she is 6 I have spent almost all summer to get her potty trained but got no where. I'm just feel sad and like I failed her but keeping my head up and keep trying. Ps my name is Sarah I'm on my boyfriends account. Love your videos keep them coming.

[@smallcinema2010]

Diets are hard to follow. I'm on one too

[@tonisiordia5087]

I have and I like it

[@TAMZYTAM]

Yeah I watched that show on Netflix I liked it it was funny

[@momzillainnova]

I was curious if Abagail enjoys Disney World?

[@staceyruwoldt9158]

Absolutely I do find your vlogs very enjoyable always!! Seeing what you get up to in your everyday life, your channel is so real and heart- warming who would not love that!? 😁😊😄💓💕💓 This is rather late as only found this vlog today, and joined in only six months ago=) The show Atypical I think it's a super fun show, as you really get to see autism from that young man's perspective, and anybody who's being barely exposed to asd would learn a lot, and really feel empathy for the character 💖💖 Not that Autism is a burden it's not, or any reason to pity somebody on the spectrum, I just mean they'll learn the many ups and downs of it all, like how he doesn't understand things, that are just second- nature to neurotypicals, and dealing with ignorance, people using that dreaded 'R- word' that short of thing, but also how beautiful and wonderful he is, like we all are on the spectrum 😊❤💙💜 xoxo

[@callumsk8rboy]

Ooh! I watched all the episodes of Atypical the day after it came out! I liked it! Some bits were better than others, but overall I think it's a good show! :D EDIT: What i mean is that as a show it is good, but it doesn't necessarily portray things properly, but I still liked it

[@WXLM-MorganNicole619]

Rock on Abby family

[@rileyadams4589]

FatheringAutisim I know a name! Abby's army

[@karlenekadra5555]

Maas Minions!

[@GoingGorbett]

Can't get enough of you guys lol! Can I get a kiss! 🤣🤣 have not seen Atypical yet but plan on watching it. Let us know what you think too! Priscilla I'm with you on the Mike 🙈 maybe it's the cool guy thing to do lol XO

[@jillrosenblum3504]

We could be called the puzzle peeps because of puzzle piece meaning in your logo

[@SchizophrenicCathy]

Priscilla DOES bring cool to the channel!!! (And just FYI, my last name rhymes with duck or muck or luck or f... Nevermind! Keep it clean, Cathy... Keep it clean...)

[@emilyhicks6265]

we long your long vlogs

[@1medic2]

You guys should do a live with your followers doing snapchat video questions

[@alohacountry4556]

[@abigailgrubbs1967]

[@The1Dmitri]

Puzzle family? for the name?

[@Cre80s]

The Maas Mob.

[@mamag2245]

We love your channel and end our evenings watching your videos. We are an autism family also. How about Abbie's Army for your fans?

[@barron10acrefarm89]

Asa you need to spread some awareness on my radio show

[@jrueful]

#vloglife Asa need a t-shirt that says this. I'm a new subscriber. My son is going through the testing phase for autism. You guys are very informative but hilarious at the same time.

[@NickyMarie83]

Just completed watching Atypical I really enjoyed it and can't wait for season 2. A lot of people are saying it has over stereotyped autism but I don't feel that you can really put a stereotype on autism to be honest, it's to much of a broad spectrum to be able to put it all under one hat! At least it's bringing awareness to mainstream media though✌️ and I think you could refer to us You Tubers as Abby's KZbin surfers 🌊📺🇦🇺 ☺️

[@feliznavidad4846]

thanks.

[@ravendudra9477]

Hi

[@ffchic18]

I just started watching Atypical yesterday too! Im only on episode 3 but I think it's pretty funny so far. There is another show that will be starting in the fall i believe called The Good Doctor (it looks pretty good from previews). :)

[@Anneaventures]

Hi guys we have 12 years old

[@ednaeverhart4398]

I wonder if Abbie really love you and Priscilla and Isaiah

[@barron10acrefarm89]

Thank for all the fun videos and for sharing the hard days and the great triumphs.. Feel like we know you guys lol.. Much Love Barron 10 Acre Farm

U guys should watch supernatural or the walking dead on Netflix there Awsome shows

[@IndieAndy]

#thestruggieisreal :)

[@G4RA]

Are you guys going to see the eclipse?

[@BeautyHairLife]

just finished Atypical and really enjoyed it, had some good laughs. There is a new show coming this fall to local tv called Good Doctor of a young man that is autistic and a medical surgeon. looks very good.

[@Brynwyn123]

Every autistic person I know thats seen it has thought Atypical is either offensive, inaccurate, stereotypical or just generally a bad show. Surprise surprise, no autistic people worked on it. At least they acknowledge that autistic people aren't all asexual, that's cool.

[@fatheringautism]

+Al Funcoot It’s also TV. I’ve never seen a show or movie depicting something that people face in real life that hasn’t offended someone. We are a society of offended people. This character is “too stereotypical”, Julia from Sesame Street “doesn’t show real autism”... It’s always something. I’d put money on it that you could have an autistic person play an autistic person on a show and people would still find a way to complain about the accuracy in which autistic people are portrayed.

[@feliznavidad4846]

fathering autism has the best videos.

[@shelbyntil1046]

i think all autistic people are different just like all humans. i think atypical was a good show to depict the bases of autism and show another children how and why someone with autism acts a certain way.

[@Tintenfischchen]

"We are a society of offended people." - Well said, Mr. Maass. A few days ago someone on the internet called me an uneducated racist because I wrote 'coloured people' instead of 'people of colour'. Like... seriously?!? It means exactly the same thing! And guess what... the US is not the only country on this planet. In South Africa, where I'm from, we use 'coloured people' all the time. It's an official term, used in official statistics and in everyday life. Most coloured people I know don't have a problem with the term or are even proud to call themselves 'coloureds'. It's the same thing with 'he/she is autistic' and 'he/she has autism'. Some people get so offended if you say the first one, it's crazy... What happened to 'sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me'?

[@amazingautism5644]

I can't watch Atypical. To much mentions of things my mother says "Her level 3 daughter shouldn't be watching". Like jeez. I watched "Bones" At 8 and and "Criminal Minds" at 10 HOW BAD CAN THE SHOW BE?! I'M 13! Can you tell me how inappropriate the show is?

[@fatheringautism]

+Missprincess 908 There’s a few cringe moments with Isaiah watching and he’s 15. I would probably agree with your mom. Bones and Criminal minds are on regular cable and rated accordingly.
