If he can’t express himself with words when he gets frustrated with the electronics, can he be given some kind of a buzzer, with a loud noise, that he can press when he needs help. It can alarm you or a teacher right away if something goes wrong.

Really good idea!

You need to nip this straight in the bud because if not, he could do this to someone's computer and that person will not have it and won't takevit kindly. I have said simular before especially on previous videos attaining to this, but this definitely needs to be said here, especially as the school seem to be turning a blind eye to a potential issue here.

I mean, I’m an adult and I get frustrated when all I see is the hourglass. Anyhow, I did love the pinwheel and pop up game bit. That game looked fun to play, especially on a windy day.

Still cannot Find a Series X for Forza Horizon 5 anywhere! I am glad Andy got into School Ok at Least. What Happened? is everyone Ok? I am glad the Potential Card "Issue" got Spotted and *Stopped* ! that has happened to Us as well, the most Recent One was a Deliveroo Pizza! I am glad You got Your Pizza Sir. We just Buy a Basic Margherita and Put Our own Toppings on. Ham and Hot Dog is Best! I am Sorry You lost the Unboxing Footage of the Series S. File Corruptions are just the Worst! Personally, I consider the Series S to be a Downgrade from My Current One X, No 4K Support, Less RAM and a Smaller Storage Capacity (Not good with Games being between 100-150GB a Pop Now) , so its Either Series X or PC for Me. I do not think it is a good Idea for Andy to have a TV in His Room, I think it should be in the Lounge like in the Old House so You can keep an Eye on Him! I hate it when they Reboot a Game Series and use the Same Title as the Original. Yes, the Original Prey was on the 360 for Launch (it was Originally a PC Game however) , But it was Rebooted in 2017 with a Game that is, basically, System Shock 3 in all but Name. Oh, Dave! Naughty! How did Anna hurt Her Foot? is She ok? I Prefer to Own My Games, Sorry, I have no real Interest in the Game-Pass. I am Glad Anna has no come down with the Lurgi. Hello Andy! Why does Andy not like the Lights? are they too Bright for Him? A Sensory Toy Section at the Post Office?! How Lovely! A lot of People with Autism prefer to be Barefoot I Notice.. Good thing Andy mostly Wears Slip On's as He is Prone to taking His Shoes off. I hope You Found that Ball that went Behind the Storage "Shed" . I am Sorry Andy did not really want to Play with the Toy. I am Sorry the SD Card corrupted Again :( Try a New Card. ah, the Bad News. Yes, that is a Bad Incident, something really does need to be Done about this! Computers are *not* Cheap. I am glad the Andy is Ok and did not Hurt Himself however. I can only Assume the Computer "Locked" Up, They do have a Bad Tendency to suddenly Freeze. I am glad the School was Understanding, but, Yes, the School should have given some kind of Punishment so Andy can learn *Not* to do this. Yes, PC's and Severe Autism are not always a good Combination as they Frequently do things that we do NOT Expect them too! A PC is like an Italian Exotic Car, *Insane* Performance, but they Will go Wrong if there is a Y in the Day! That was one *Tough* Laptop! Was that the Lenovo? Either an I Pad, or, If Possible, back to Good Old Pencil and Paper might be the Best. Given the School were Understanding, it was Probably a Meltdown, I know I can have them if One of My PC's goes into BSOD. Yes, You need to get a Lock on the Door, just to be on the Safe Side.
