I have autism and it doesn’t make me stim but I don’t usually or ever really stim😊

[@IlllIIIIlllIIIIlIlIIllIlIIlllI]

I liked it a lot just wish u used rainbow dyed rice it’s more simulating

[@solomonrobberts1444]

That is soooo relaxing 🤗

[@Joys2cool4u]

This helped me out of a meltdown and I can’t thank you enough for it.

I have autism and normally I don’t really like ASMR but this sound is soothing and makes me want to just fill a container with rice and just feel it through my fingers

[@MxCartney]

I always loved playing with the rice bucket at my special education class room in elementary school, the sound, smell and feel is just incredible….great for anyone with neurodivergence and/or autism….thank you for making this, I usually hate ASMR, but rice is absolutely perfect! It’s tasty too

[@josettejoy6003]

I don't usually like ASMR but this actually made me feel good! It was so soothing which I did not expect. I also LOVE the wind chimes you have at the end of your videos.

[@anumch3637]

such a strong parents alot of blessings for all of you

[@crazyrainbowninja7097]

Your an ASMR artist I wish I was there feeling and playing with the rice 🍚

[@sirkredrum3406]

Satisfying Just like walking on sand or grass barefoot, or the echoes of a long hallway with no one else around. Listening to water sound efftects or having the fan turned on while i sleep.

[@Danderman888]

I had an unusual way of stimming. I twiddled the content of a pillow, bolster or cushion when I was a kid. I think I sort of grew out of it, although there are private times, when I find myself twiddling the content of a cushion or pillow. Cotton was the content of my choice, and one that has seeds and stems still in the fillings were the most satisfying. 😁

[@monicadlynn]

This. Same. So the same. I had a tag on a blanket when I was little that I still think about at almost 50❤

[@YoureMyCherryOnTop143]

Oh my god!! I remember in my old elementary days we had a rice bin in our classroom because most of us were on the spectrum & so we had that after did our work because we can choose what we wanna do after our work with the teacher. So when I saw that this video it’s just brings so many memories.

[@insertusernamehere8125]

I don't have Autism but this is INCREDIBLE ASMR!!!

[@octogirl2046]

I sat watching this mesmerized.

[@PeterParker_1218]

I really enjoy stimming and do it a lot so this helps me calm down when I feel there is too much sensory input. Also I can connect a lot to Connor in the way that he has a lot of qualities like me and they are good ones! I can relate as I have high-functioning autism as well.

[@DanielaBodoh]

It’s like ASMR! Love it :)

[@jmkosan]

This gives me the kind of calm I get from sitting on the beach and listening to the ocean.

[@darkchipz3016]

I love the sound, it's really satisfying

[@jenteale]

Yes! Great idea, which I'll set up for my 4year old granddaughter. We can both get immersed 😊😊

[@lisamcelroy413]

I love because its extremely satisfying and it makes me calm down

This is great for stress as well, have a happy new year!

I love seeing this family!

I hope you guys had a great Thanksgiving. I love watching your videos.❤

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Thank you and you as well!

[@strothelmkez1472]

That was awesome!! I'm really into the ASMR stuff. I layer the stimuli. Two screens with visual: Mandelbrot is just fantastic and pictures from the James Webb Telescope. The rice was great! added to fans, then either Pink Floyd's Echoes or someone whispering in French. Controlling each layer's sound with sound mixer. I also have a mat of fabric swatches in front of me. Stim Overload... The above getting to the point of: The rice was awesome!!🐺

[@leilag9511]

I have autism and I love this video keep up the all some work❤️.

[@robertayasir1481]

Will definitely try with my daughter very relaxing x

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Glad to hear it

[@user-yd1mz4on1k]

I stim and I’m not diagnosed with autism but I wouldn’t be surprised if I have some sort of high functioning autism. I actually just got some news about a family member that is very upsetting and this video helped calm me down. So thank you!

[@insertusernamehere8125]

You might have ADHD then if you stim without Autism

[@user-yd1mz4on1k]

@@insertusernamehere8125 I was diagnosed years ago with ADD but I don’t receive treatment for it. The stimulant type meds give me anxiety / heart palpitations and then the non stimulant ones never worked so I don’t receive any treatment.

[@marjanvermeulen9753]

Hi family! It's very nice to see this. It makes me calm. Keep going with video's like this. I hope that everything is fine with you all and had a great Thanksgiving. A bug hug from the Netherlands. 🇳🇱😃❤️🇺🇲

The asmr😭it’s perfect 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 For someone who likes sensory content and that’s good for my sensory input this is actually helpful 😮 I used to do this in reception(kindergarten ) I’m in uk so we call it reception ages 3-4

[@Healthy-sy3ty]

We have these little balls which get bigger with water. My autistic son loves to play with these. ❤ the video

I sometimes used to do something like this with sand in the sandbox in the back yard after a stressful day at school.

[@Gamer-bs7lt]

I have autism and this video is making me sign because I love the sound of the rice.

[@Roblox_GamerYT11]

I do have autism and this is just so relaxing I just want to get some rice and put it in a bowl so I can play with it😭

[@marloncondous250]

I have autism and adhd and this sort of asmr noise from the rice is great for me to concentrate or to calm down if im really agitated :DD

[@neilrocks84roblox19]

I tend to make motor sounds even while sick lol 😂

[@tineke298]

I like the video ❤😊

[@kauebotsman2676]

Hello! Nice channel. How is your son in regards to the tardive dyskinesia issue? Is he cured? I read that sometimes Abilify only masks the symptoms but over time they come back. Is he symptom-free in that aspect right now?

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

It’s back a little unfortunately

[@brittanyb.300]

I must try this with my boy who has autism.

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Some kids love it, really helps them.

[@benwintfeld2983]

Hello my name is Ben from New Jersey. I have seen your videos with sons with autism and I do have autism actually. I would like to meet you meet all in person someday. On this KZbin video it sounds like a great recipe. What I will mention I normally use JetBlue and I am a HUGE JetBlue fan. I think your autistic son will like JetBlue and it has tv at every seat. See you soon.

[@puntjepuntpuntje]

I understand what i should be doing. As someone on the spectrum that really dislikes rice and the feeling of it. it puts me very much off. (sand would have the same effect on me) I know I love putting my hands in a toad filled with lego and not building just stirring around and scooping. Its simulair yet senory friendly for me. Well at least untill the sound gets me to much and i have to stop or put ear defenders on. I like the idea of such vids, at the same time im not sure if 8 minutes would be ok for me. For ASMR maybe... but just to get across what it is and how it can played with 3 min tops i guess? but thats just me. i can skip or play at faster speed so... don't know if there was any sound other than the rice (i had it on mute to not get itchy sorry) if there was i guess i would preffer it without any other sounds than just the regalur thing you are doing. extra sounds would have made it very distracting for me if it was something i liked.

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

Thanks for your feedback

[@sonicforcesfan2020]

I love rice

[@derekaldrich4887]

Let Connor put his hands in the rice

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

We will try and get the kids more involved in videos like these if they become popular. The trick is to get them to be calm and quiet while recording. I think Connor could do it. I don't know if the other boys would. It may be interesting seeing the boys react to it though.

[@annej44]

The sounds really bother me I have extreme sensory to Asmr sounds but I love the feel of playing with rice myself just not the audio in a video but that is just me

[@AurorasWindow]

Hi, I’m mostly sensory avoidant and auditory ASMR isn’t for me at all. I made it 30 sec in the video before my whole body starts twitching 😅 I think ASMR exacerbates my misophonia 😅 I love visual ASMR, though. I do think this is a great idea for videos! (Despite me not being able to watch it)

[@cerealfibre6938]

How does Ian, Connor and Alister take the sound of the rice?😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

They all love it. Connor said people on the spectrum love different sounds so I'd like to know what kinds of sounds you'd like to hear, if any.

[@davef2975]

(warning, a VERY long post......for a reason) The importance that your family keep posting is paramount. Sadly, it seems everyone that gets a diagnosis of Autism or ADHD feels a need to immediately start making videos with their “Expert Advice and Facts.” Totally lost is the concept and reality that every Autistic is unique. So right off, it makes most of the posters of such material very “self-serving” and basically “Full of it.” It is one thing to post on social media “things that has worked for you”, it another thing totally to be spouting off one’s “Expert Advice” as if all Autistics are a stereotype or “this works for me and will work for you!”. Your family has always been an island of sanity where “reality” is the only subject matter. Your family and I have an interesting connection. By you producing video content that shows how your families Autism issues change and evolve, there is a very positive consequence. It is my presumptions that one of the multitude of questions parents face when their child is diagnosed with Autism is ; “What will the future be like for my child and for the family?” Your family diary type content can give hope that though there will be challenges, but not all will be dark. Although I do not have children and must be an “observer” of families such as yours, I can make a similar contribution. I am sure you are wondering what will life be like for you Sons and will they have a fulfilling life as they become adults. “Does Autism change over time?” “Will life get better or more challenging?” (I have communicated the following to you in the past) I am 72 y/o and am Autistic with comorbidity of ADHD and Sensory Processing Disorder. I am one of several “study subjects” being studied by a some colleges and universities. The study is a long term study as to how ASD (Autism) affects aging as we get into our Senior years, and on the flipside, how aging may affect Autism. With your family sharing your experiences as your Sons grow, others may be comforted that there may better times ahead. Likewise, as the studies I am participating progress, others will find that things can be Okay. Autistic children do grow to be Autistic Teenagers, grow to be Autistic Adults, and grow to be Autistic Seniors. Together we can hopefully take some of the mystery, stigma, and fears of the unknown and help Autistic Families move forward with hope. So yes, with the extremely over-saturation on social media and flooding of “Autistics” telling everyone their “facts, diagnosis, and THIS IS THE ONLY ANSWER”, your family has a very important place where people can peak inside a functioning Autism Family….No BS, No “This is will work for everyone.” So please continue with the snapshots of your family facing all the good times and bad. There is an ever growing need to comfort and assure Autistic people and their families, “Autism is just a part of life.” “Autistics have opportunity, but we have to look forward with patience and optimism.”

[@AutismFamilyChannel]

We plan to keep posting videos, even though with my full time work it may be sparse from time to time. Thank you 😊

[@davef2975]

Have comfort in it is not the frequency, but the content. @@AutismFamilyChannel
