[@bertadellasala3258]

Aww this channel has always been so sweet. My cousin has autism, and they truly are special. Thankyou for being understanding of people on the spectrum, and so loving. What you guys do is amazing. :)

[@davinashaffer5822]

Abbie, stay a kid as long as possible, those r the some of the best moments in life.

[@siamese35]

Just an observation. I know your stove isn’t dangerous but maybe you shouldnt put things on it in front of her. Let her think it is dangerous so she doesn’t put stuff on other stoves

[@brewy_]

can’t tell you how much I appreciate the captioning!!!

[@Jaime2830]

Wish my guy got that excited about eating lol. Love how happy she gets. She never fails to put a smile on my face.

Summers laugh is incredible. Abbies squeezey face is adorable. Isaiah is so Handsome. Asa is a Awesome Dad 🤩

[@MissLeahMitchell]

Priscilla is an amazing mom and hard worker.

The snake thing was hilarious. "I don't want to do this either."

I appreciate that you use CC to make your channel more accessible. I don't personally use CC but I'm sure that those who do greatly appreciate having access to reliable CC. It's unfortunate that the available sources aren't reliable and that to get decent resources they cost a lot of money. That doesn't really encourage people to try to make things more accessible. Thank you! Love watching your vlogs :)

[@rebekahdavison8256]

Thank u for going the extra financial mile and time to include the CC on your channel. I appreciate that very much Enjoy watching u all's channel

Super fun video. Everyone laughing & smiling. Great memories. Isiah & Summer are such wonderful young people. You can tell Abbie loves them & learns from them. I really enjoy the tone of the recent videos. Thanks for sharing. I’ve learned a lot by watching the videos, Hug Abbie for me. I sure wish I could hug my 9 year old grandson. He is on the autism spectrum & lives in Boston. I can’t wait for Covid to run it’s course. His dad, my son, is in the Coast Guard stationed in Boston, They bought their forever home there because of the excellent educational & therapy facilities. ❤️

Abby such an amazing girl.Love her determination.

I needed this video thankyou so much for letting us into your lives

[@lmvicente1]

I love the way ya’lls new kitchen allows Abbie to help out with her everyday living skills she’ll need. She’s at the perfect age to learn more of those skills. Just like all teenagers at her age🥰🥰🥰

[@florencebeaupre5578]

I love watching your videos. I am currently studying to become a special need teacher and I learn so much things in your videos. You are incredible parents that really help you daughter to become more and more independent and you share this to us. I love to see the progress that Abbie did she seems so much happy:)

Nothing against Cellia. But lots of laughs and fun when mom is gone. Don’t mean that in a bad way.

[@fatheringautism]

We have tons of laughs when I’m here too. Obviously when mom is gone there are less rules and structure. Pretty typical family dynamic. -Priscilla

I love watching your videos, I love the whole family.

[@gekevandenberg3601]

Not so long ago you had to chase Abbie because she darted off and now she is much more chill outside. My favourite one is when Asa and Abbie took their first walk with Maverick without holding her hand and Asa cried....

[@KeepingItHopeful]

I love Abbies squinty face. Far more than that snake. It makes every I love where the air hurts my face meme true. 😂

[@odesseyhaynes7015]

Asa- My dad can swing higher than your dad! Isaiah-my dad is the best at swinging! Asa -THANKS! I love it! 😂😂😂💜💚💜

[@raeperonneau4941]

My Mom was an educator with a double master and a PHD in Education and she always said... never give child more than 2 choices. It’s overwhelming for them. A or B allows them to be at choice in their own lives without making their parent/caretaker insane. Lol. PS Summer... come on, you could squash that snake with your shoe. Lol. Most snakes are harmless and are very beneficial.

[@karlysaeks7718]

I really enjoy watching your vlogs and your family

[@stacieezell3678]

I love watching Abbie trying to run with Summer...lol❤

[@jennastewart7473]

Love how Abbie growled at Summer because she was going to eat first.

[@lorireeves6870]

I think Abby was finished eating but didn’t want Summer to eat.

[@yaslinecolon2749]

Yes I noticed as well she was like nah girl you not eating

[@fatheringautism]

Aww, she wasn't growling at her. She was just vocalizing. She wanted Summer to come sit with her.

[@judychristensen5689]

Why would you say that, Abbie doesn't "growl" she has many vocalizations, she was obviously very happy!!

[@fatheringautism]

@@NCJoMamaSC Two comments in a row you’re arguing with me as if I wasn’t in the room. It’s kinda bizarre to be honest. I’m a little confused as to why. I mean, she wanted Summer to come with her. That’s what she was telling her. I’m basing it off of what she was saying to Summer.

[@emmaegg5437]

Summers laugh is so infectious it made me giggle and smile the entire time! Love it! 😍❤

[@PandaPlayz_YT]

Asa stepped on what and summer is laughing this whole time

[@janaleonard4702]

[@fatheringautism]

So sorry Jana. 😞

I would have fainted!!! Or had a heart attack!! Or both!!!😱😱😱

[@angeladavis9459]

Watching some old videos and crying I'm laughing so hard. 🤣

[@gianicloset8864]

But it did make sense when you asked her what she wanted and she said break. Maybe consider she means being recorded.

[@fatheringautism]

For lunch? If you’ve watched recent blogs she confuses the signs for open and break. They are similar signs. Open because she is requesting I open the pantry. She signs it every day in the kitchen.

[@fatheringautism]

@@NCJoMamaSC So if she’s not mixing up signs but then I ask her if she’s saying open when she corrects her sign without being prompted to do so she nods “yes”. She is consistently mixing up break and open. You have to realize we see her all day compared to the few minutes in each vlog that you do. She has been mixing up the sign on and off camera. I don’t think people realize we go a couple days in a row without vlogging most weeks. We experience this stuff first hand in real life. Believe it or not we’ve got a pretty good grasp of what she’s communicating.

[@gianicloset8864]

@@fatheringautism maybe if you haven't yet try to come up with a sign for her for when she wants to stop being recorded. Hopefully she has the ability to say that and be heard.

[@fatheringautism]

@@gianicloset8864 That would be a reasonable thing to teach her but I have to wonder why. She has never had an issue with it before other than wanting to just be left alone in general but that’s with or without a camera, doesn’t matter. She communicates pretty clearly with everything else so I don’t understand why suddenly people seem to think she isn’t understood in this one situation. It appears it follows a specific narrative that just isn’t factual. As to your last statement, her wishes are always heard and and respected. I don’t know why they wouldn’t be now just as they always have. I just don’t understand why this needs to be explained or why it’s even questioned. We put out enough that our parenting is pretty transparent.

[@gianicloset8864]

@@fatheringautism honestly ive watched about 20-25 of your most recent as well as older videos in the last week or two & i totally commend everyone involved for their level of patience transparency love and care for Abby. Thats all clear. Im not sure which narrative youre refering to I was just simply asking, given that shes non verbal , if you guys have offered her the option to request not being video taped. I'm not minimizing the great communication thats been developed thus far- and I know that these videos are only a small portion of what you choose to show. but being that this entire channel is surrounding Abby I just was curious if she had a "safe word" or "code word" for when she doesn't want to be on camera.

[@Curbie1962]

OMGoodness!!! I was laughing so hard! So proud of you for trying to pick it up Summer, but the whole time I kept seeing your hoodie ties swinging (that were bigger than the snake 😝) and I was afraid you would grab it and think it was attacking your face as they swung up! And then the coffee and poo 🤦🏽‍♀️🤣 I just so appreciate you all so much for so many ways you inspire, inform, and make me laugh! 💜🙏🏻💜

How funny trying to pick up the little snake

[@nancymcdowell4799]

I have trypophobia. Had it all my life. Any clusters of bugs or circles or sores makes me itch and get sick. First time I had symptoms I kept it to myself cause I was a child. I’d go to bed at night and imagined worms inside my back. Coming in and out. I couldn’t sleep thinking about it. I was alone in my misery. My parents never knew about it. ❤️
