Yeah

What did he get sent?

@@montyclaydon5042 I’m not sure but from what Kevin said it seems like it was something bad

It's nice to see Andy doing the things he likes again after lockdown

[@ameibabei]

I'm so sorry somebody sent something horrible to Andy 😩 I hope whatever it was he didn't fully understand it and wasn't affected by it. There are so many of us who care about Andy and your family, I hope you know that ❤

[@practicallydehumanised]

Keep up the great work, been watching since you were a teacher and watched almost every vlog, Andy has grown so so much and you and Anna are such good parents (Edit) i had said that Andy's mustache is nice but someone started complaining so i took it down and reported that comment

[@amyyeomanss]

So lovely to see Andy happy in the trampoline park! There’s always one isn’t there. I posted something lovely yesterday that should hopefully make up for the silly Billy’s ❤️

[@MaddieAllan89]

I'm so happy Andy got to do something he enjoys after all this time in lockdown! Keep up the vlogs, they're much enjoyed :)

Hello Sir! Andy Adventure Footage! Hooray! its been too Long! Lovely to see the A-List Content Back! Slip on Vans again Andy? Nice :) I am Sorry that Andy's Go Pro is Still Out of Action, What on Earth did He do to it. I am glad that You found Andy a New Bounce House Place to Play In :) I hope it becomes a Regular Visit for You Guys! Awww! Yes! Its Lovely to See Andy so Happy again! :) that big Smile has made My Day :) Andy? I want to see More of that Smile in Future Young Man! How did You convince Andy to match Socks with the Rest of You all? Lovely to see Andy Really enjoying the Bounce House! Was Andy Pulling Gymnastic Tricks on One of those Trampolines! I had no Idea He had some Gymnastic Skills! I am glad Everyone had a Really good Time! So Bounce House, Crazy Golf, an IMAX, and all the Shops You Enjoy? Sounds Like its a Great Place for all Of You to go to! Yes, Definitely more Flip Out! I am glad that the New Bounce House also does Special Autism/Sensory Days :) that is Lovely :) Yup, only 11 Days until Christmas. Well done Getting a Sponsor Sir. How many do You have Now? Yes, I Noticed the Jump Cut. Oh My Goodness, I am Really Sorry that some utter Monster sent Andy something Horrible! I just Hope He did not Understand what it was and it did not Upset Him or Disturb Him too much, Sadly, it is also Inevitable that it would Happen. There are some absolutely Foul and Truly Evil People out there who *Despise* Autism, (oddly, the Absolute Worst, In My Experience, are the so called "Progressive Left" When it comes to being truly *Hateful* to a Psychotic Degree of People of Autism :( ) and get a Kick out of Trying to Ruin our Lives :( It is Awful that You are going to have to "Screen" Your Mail in Future to Ensure that something like this *Never* Happens again, but, Unfortunately, Bullying seems to have gotten even *Worse* in the 21st Century, as even the Home is not a Safe area away from it any more like it Used to be, Its awful to think that You need to Screen Your Mail in Future, but, sadly, it also seems to be an Inevitability in the Modern Day and Age as Society seems to get ever Closer to a total Societal Collapse :( Its a Shame that utter PLANK had to Ruin Andy opening things on Camera for us, but, You need to Protect Andy from these Trolls, it is Priority One, so I more than Understand and Support Your Decision! I just hope those of Us who Genuinely Love Andy and send Him Nice things (I was going to send Him a Code for the Digital Version of Forza Motorsport 7 for Xbox One for Christmas now *all* the Cars in the Game are Unlocked for Immediate use in it's "Arcade" Mode right from the Initial Install, But, Sadly, My Parents Said NO to that Plan, which Sucks :( ) will still get to see Him Reacting to the Presents that they Send Him and that You will allow Him to Have. Still, I am glad that the Rest of Day went well other than the Issue with the Utter Lunatic in the Mail. I Hope Your Future Weeks go So much Better for You and we Have lots more Good Days and Andy Adventures :) Anna needs to Improve Her "Cool" Skill Tree and Maximise Her Stealth Perks...and...(Ok. Yes.. I have been Playing Too much Cyberpunk 2020 Tabletop while I wait for 2077 to be Patched to a Point it actually Works Properly On PC without Bugging Out, and lets Me Rebind Movement to Arrows, so I can finally see the World of Night City from the Gorgeous Comic Book Style Lore-Book Art Bought to Life via Maxing out the Settings on My RTX 3090 and Zen 3 Threadripper!... ) so She does not get Spotted in Future when She wants to make a Sneaky Cameo! Also Anna, If You want Cyberpunk 2077 in Your Collection, *Wait Until Next Year* ! it does not Work at *all* on PS4/ Xbox One, Is Downright *Broken* on Series X/S and PS5, and even the PC Version has a List of Bugs, Errors, Faults and Crashes that are Longer than Both of My Arms put End to End! Just a PSA for You! I hope You Enjoy the Board Game that Company Customised For You. You are getting a Proper Christmas Day! YES! Fantastic! Vlogmas Day is Back On! Hooray! I cannot *wait* to see the Footage :) Sadly, there is a Massive Shortage of Special School Places in the UK these Days, ever since the Majority of them got Shut in the Short Sighted and, IMO *Disastrous* "Inclusion" Era of the Late 1990s, and, sadly, there are a Number of People in Parliament, I wont name Names, who just will Not allow Funding to be Made available for More Special Schools to be Re-Opened! Yeah, Dave loves Visitors it would Seem :) I am Sorry that the Social Workers, Despite their Unfailing Efforts, are Currently Unable to Find Andy a Special School Place due to Deadlines being Missed. I think the Main issue is Probably the School being Full, as there is a Gross Shortage of Special School Places as there is, according to the Daily Mail at Least, there are 3 Special Needs Children for every Single Place here in the UK! its a Disaster :( I Just Hope You can get Andy a Really Nice Special School Place as Soon as Possible... There are Spaces at One in Rossal, Lancs, but that would Require another Move :( Still, with Lockdown Lifting, You should Hopefully be able to get Andy out of the House more often to that Bounce House Place. According to My Mum, who used to be the Bursar in a Mainstream Infants School before She took Early Retirement, In an *Extreme Emergency* , basically the "Worst Case Scenario", the Social Services have a Couple of Extra "last Resort" Options, they can either put Andy into a Mainstream Infants or Primary School that is Capable of Supporting His Needs (they did have some Teenagers at the One My Mom Worked at who had been placed there because there just was *not* a Single Special School Place Available for them, and Her School was Capable of Supporting "Moderate to Severe" level Autistic Students despite being Mainstream) , given that, from What I have Personally seen, so Please do not take this the Wrong Way, Andy seems to be at a "Reception" Level Educationally, or they Can place Him into the "Support Base" at a Mainstream Secondary, but they prefer not to take the Second Option as, due to the Bullying Risk, they basically have to keep the "Transfer" in the Support Base for the Entire Day to Protect them from the "Regular" Pupils, but again, that is an *Extreme* Emergency, and, going on what Mum has Said, I think it is, If they just *cannot* get a Special School Place for Andy, far more Likely that the Social Workers will place Andy into a Mainstream Infants or Primary School that is Capable of Supporting His Needs. I know, You cannot take time off Work to look after Andy, so they Really need to Find Him a School Place as Soon as Possible so He can Settle down and Become less Destructive. I am glad You got the Camera and the Go-Pro Fixed, and Indeed, I am Sorry that Andy has become so Destructive, but I know that He just cannot Help Himself in a Meltdown as He just does not have the Faintest Idea what He is Doing, If His Meltdowns are anything Like Mine, I tend to "Black Out", My Brain basically "Stops Recording" I do not know what I have done until someone Tells Me *after* the Meltdown is over and My Receptive Communication has Recovered to a Point where I can Understand what I am being Told. Yes, That sounds like an Accident with the Phone :( I am Sorry that Andy Slipped, I do Hope that He did not Hurt Himself, Poor Lamb. Agreed, Hopefully the Increase of Trips to Churches, Going to the Bounce House, Going to Adventure Golf, Etc, at Weekends as Lockdown continues to Lift, and then goes away entirely as more and more People are Vaccinated ,, will help Stabilise Andy and Make Him a Lot less Bored! Well, take care then Sir, I hope You get some good news Soon, Bye Now. PS. was Andy Ok during the GLOBAL Outage of Google Services this Morning? as I am afraid that Caused Me to have a Meltdown, So I am now Worried about How Andy Coped because it Knocked KZbin Out as well. I hope You managed to get Toy Story or Frozen or something like that On for Him and Fast!

[@mariaconnolly696]

I’m really happy you found a place and had some fun for a change. Being an American making a grill cheese in a pan has always been as far as I know. That’s the way we were taught. 😂😂😂 You butter the outside of both pieces of bread put the cheese on the bread and if you want to add some ham with it. Toast both sides of the bread and press down to melt the cheese. I like American cheese on my grilled cheese. A lot of people like grilled cheese and eat tomato soup with it.

[@Charliemc2702]

How could you do that do a child, I'm fuming hope Andy is okay

[@charlottevicarage1331]

A teenager isn't considered a child, but it's still the pronciple of the thing.

[@tentativabritanica1040]

@@charlottevicarage1331 Anyone under the age of 18 is a consider a minor and still legally a child under the uk law. So to send a child something foul, nasty or vicious in nature is truly disgusting and sickening . Him being a teenager doesn't make him a adult under our laws.

Great to see you out and about. Noticed you all had the same socks on. Just wondering how Andy was in regards putting on what I assume to be the "special socks"?

Kev, you should make videos where you cook vegan cuisine called 'Kooking with Kev' or 'Kev's Kooking Klass' or 'Kev's Krazy Kooking'. I changed the 'Cs' to 'Ks' because 'Kev' begins with a 'K' and 'C' and 'K' make the same sound.

[@charlottevicarage1331]

Just putting it out there, but Andy could be volunteered to a food bank, possibly working, remembering that he loved it there in your old area? It would give him something to do, plus, it'll teach him budgeting and work ethics, as that's part and parcel of his independence, and while he's there, you could do what you wanted to do and maybe pick him up after? Or get him to learn to get there and back himself? Just an idea. Plus, for years , 16 WAS a normal leaving school age and typically, it was when you are at working age. As for the one person who sent something to Andy (I'm curious to know what it is, as I think it might have been simular to the things Harvey (Katie's Price's son) gets sent on a daily basis), unfortunately, there will always be people like that everywhere, and if I were in the situation, I would probably laugh and ignore it.

[@livsephton9]

I'm curious to know what it was too and you can still work at 16 but have restricted hours during term time and only get £3.87 an hour

Honestly, no idea how people can find fun in doing things like this its beyond sad 🤦🏼‍♀️anyway glad u guys had a lovely time out

[@gracet4444]

Hi Kevin, I would recommend getting an advocate to deal with social services and having a look at the Autism act 2009, the care act 2014 (legal you should be supported to continue to work) and the children's and family act 2014. as well as the UN conventions of the rights of person with disability and rights of children. So you can be sure they are following the legal process set out in the legislation. Also NICE have guidelines on autistic adults and social and transition into adult hood which may be helpful. In personal experience we have use all of these and more to help inform us. You may already be aware of these documents, but if not it might be helpful to have a look at.

[@marcusjay8103]

[@imaginaryenemy2565]

I mean it is possible it just depends on where you live my neices are still going to their weekly gymnastics, dance, swim and piano lessons it's just that much less kids and parents are allowed in the building at once and of course masks are required

I hate to ask.. not from UK or USA.. How come they aren't wearing masks inside the trampoline place? In an inside facility with assuming ventilation systems? Sorry to be the guy who comments it I'm genuinely curious...

[@TheEquus92]

I was thinking the same thing. I guess it’s different depending on where you live. I’m in the northeast of The US and here you can’t even walk into a building without wearing a mask

[@michelle360kpop]

Probably because it’s only them there as far as I can see. They probably had a reservation.

[@IloveAliBromley]

I know you work really hard in the other channel and I sure you do some home learning I mean life skills will be one of Andy main goals right so a bit of life skills e.g loading washing machine You may even do this already. Working with many children and young people and having son with autism I know for parents it can be hard. Awful about card I don't blame you. If you do read this please do try macintyre charity as they are good. Not sure what they got round your area but worth a try.
