[@AmyLeeAngelLove]

Excellent video! Thank you for posting it. I have 2 non-verbal children with Autism and this is the video I needed. God Bless.

[@lahainaj]

So much hope for our babies!!sending love your way✨🧩⭐💛

There’s NO CURE for autism 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@AmyLeeAngelLove]

@@lahainaj ❤❤❤

[@AmyLeeAngelLove]

@@ljmcdonald2703 There is. YOU believe what you want and I'll do the same. My son was vaccinated... 48 hours later he stopped talking. All the signs of Autism afterwards. Formula contains heavy metals. Look into it. Heavy metals crosses the blood brain barrier and causes neurological disorders.

I can’t post a photo here, but I found Melanie on Facebook. She said that Christopher is nonverbal and lives in a group home with 4 other men, one of them he went to school with from the age of 6. She and Ralph live in Florida due to health problems, but they maintain their home in Massachusetts so they can come visit Christopher in the summer months.

[@natalieshattuck5044]

Can you share her last name? How do you know it’s her?

[@lahainaj]

Omg...i have a 6 year old autistic daughter...non verbal!!its not a sickness its a conditions...and it has nothing to do with the environnement!thank god time changed and we are more aware of autism✨

[@dalelydiard4307]

Vaccines 😢

[@fringestream990]

So the rise in Autism rates since the past 30 years is totally 100% naturally caused? I highly doubt that, something is causing it to rise.

[@Loriburnett]

My son is high functioning Autistic and has a photographic memory from the get go. I always feel like I’m under a microscope because he can read me like a book. He was slow developing but was fixated with anything that moves such as vehicles and in preschool he didn’t know his letters numbers colors but would litterly correctly identify the make and models of cars. In the school parking lot. It was mind blowing. His father is a mechanic. On his fourth grade class trip they took a bus trip and asked the driver when the last time the bus had been serviced lol. He always checked my tires to see if I needed air and could diagnose issues by the sound. He also was a bit obsessed with me having enough gas. Well guess what the school bus broke down on the trip and they had to wait for a replacement bus. I’m sure his anxiety was sky high. If I move an object just an inch he notices it instantly. His nickname is eagle eye. I told him he would make a great security guard.

Love a follow up on these people today

I used to have that video until I donated to Wildwood program in curry road albany ny

[@MattHrman-Cutis]

the attitudes towards autism I have autism myself and the attitudes are just negative and unacceptable

[@PV-pu5iu]

I just started watching. I don't like that the father keeps telling Christopher "shhh", and makes him stop moving around.

[@mattbronsil6336]

They are because we know more now. Back in the 80s we barely had any idea about Autism.

[@cathypaynejones5336]

I’m sorry you have to deal with that. People are uneducated and unfortunately in public schools the most.

[@Loriburnett]

Some people believe that these children are the “chosen ones”. They mean that in a positive way. There also seems to be a big rise in autism.

[@rachelfox8359]

Why do people think that Autism (or any other such medical condition) has to be 'cured'? It's so asinine and insensitive!

[@iiiMUNiiiQUE]

This was literally 30 years ago. Not sure this is the place for outrage.

[@rachelfox8359]

@@iiiMUNiiiQUE Ummm.... okay.....

[@MeganSmith80]

Look at it as a sign of progress. That's 30 years ago. You can't measure it with today's standards. Be happy that we aren't in this mindset anymore.

[@killerqueen1313]

Would you wish a debilitating illness on your child? That's autism, especially SEVERE autism, which literally means the person can't function on any level of independence at all. When you have to clean poop off the floors & walls every day for decades, know your child is a "forever baby", you pray for any kind of cure that will reverse their brain damage, because that's what autism is.

[@nathanaelwassmann3794]

This, ….. is, …… *QUACKERY!!!!!*

[@cathypaynejones5336]

You can’t recover from autism. It’s a state of the person. But, they like any neurotypical person can change with help.

[@Christmaslightsalesman]

It’s so amusing that the “recovered” aren’t cured, but rather just helped and evolved. They were given needed therapies, and now moved to a different part of the spectrum. Both my fiancée and I suspect that everyone is on the spectrum somewhat, but at severely varying degrees, much like sexuality or gender.

[@KITTY10171]

It pains me hearing Sally talk about autism as if it's something to pity...Thank God we've come such a long way understanding autism since this was filmed.

[@AmyLeeAngelLove]

Dr. Paul Millard Hardy had so much more to say about Autism but he was cut off TWICE. Why have him on the show if he wasn't even allowed to finish what he was saying that was important. Apparently, he is still practicing. I'm going to look into Auditory Training. Worth a try.

[@sonyafox3271]

Have you heard of Social Stories, well, I can tell you it works and helps keep them calm. Usually a behavior health Specialist can show you how to do this and, there’s books out there on them. Goodluck!

[@AmyLeeAngelLove]

@@sonyafox3271 That's awesome! I will look into it. Thank you for letting me know! ❤❤

[@AmyLeeAngelLove]

@@_victimclasspreycitizen "Auditory integration training (AIT) aims to address the sensory problems such as hearing distortions and hyperacusis. Hyperacusis is better understood as oversensitive hearing. Both of which are said to cause discomfort and confusion in people with learning disabilities, including autism spectrum disorders. These hypersensitivities are believed to interfere with a child's attention, comprehension, and ability to learn."

[@dalelydiard4307]

Frequency!! Healing!

[@AmyLeeAngelLove]

@@dalelydiard4307 Yes! Thank you for sharing that! ❤ I started 2 weeks ago and every single time I would play a frequency for Autism healing, my 2 kids will calm down. I have tried other frequencies but didn't think to try ones for Autism until recently. I haven't played it enough but I am noticing small positive changes. ❤

[@veronicamamiful]

I have 2 sons with autism.
