Loud Autistic Stimming Attracts Attention
Vložit

- Abbie can be pretty loud and have abrupt movements when she is stimming. Especially when she is overwhelmed, anxious, or excited. Loud autistic stimming attracts attention. Some of that is unwanted attention but often times we use it as an opportunity to share awareness and acceptance.

Once one of my students licked a gen ed kid on the playground. As I moving toward them, the other kid tried to engage my student in conversation and kept getting licked. I told her it was okay to say no or to step back so she wouldn’t get licked again. (Of course, I moved my student out of licking range at the same time).That sweet child replied that her parents told her that she would meet different kinds of people when she started school and it was important to be kind to them all.
Au Teacher aw, this is sweet. At the same time, the phrase "tried to engage my student in conversation and kept getting licked" is just hilarious. Not saying that you shouldn't be nice, You SHOULD treat all people kindly, but the way that is said is just funny
What a sweet wonderful moment
Not proud to say this but when I get close to a melt down I bite my self or if you are in range maybe you.
My little brother knows this.
When he was asked about it he just said "bite or be bitten".
He usally runs and brings me stim toys when I start biting wich is super sweet and I'm super thankfull for him
Pro parenting!
What a sweet girl
The way you interacted with the little girls is precious. Children are not rude unless they are taught to be. Perfect teaching opportunity.
@@meganlovesdisneyandcrafts4780 Ignorance can't thrive around open mindedness. I learned from a young age to surround myself with caring and open minded people. 💜 It's so hard when it's your own family though.
@UCJ-lN6PDPi9O6ubKzDD3fgQ I don't think it was rude. Totally natural for children just as they state in the video. Their reaction to the girls was perfect in my opinion. 😊
I currently work with 4&5yr olds and they are so accepting of differences and aren’t ignorant at all. I think it’s important for children at a young age to be taught how to be accepting and kind to others of all abilities, races and genders.

I loved the way the little girls were so enthralled by Abbie and learning about her different ability
I love how passionate her brother is with her. How much he loves her is beautiful
Victoria Reeves seriously, not many brothers are as loving and caring with their sisters. He never seems to get jealous, he just gets it. Props to the parents too, they did a great job with both kids.
It's alot of pressure on siblings or sibling to deal with a special need sibling. Their life is infected greatly in many ways. Scary part is when the paents gone that heavy burden may be on them
he took off with no hesitation. it’s so sweet seeing that relationship and bond between them. they don’t need verbal communication to know they love eachother.
He really does such a great job with her!! ❤️❤️❤️
he's a great bro
Isaiah is the literal embodiment of everything the world needs, he's so kind and caring. What a guy
Right. So hard to find these days
Absolutely
The world doesn’t need a person like him. We need to BE a person like him. Effort is everything. Do more, expect less
As a former employee of Dollywood, we go through training that teaches us to recognize guest's needs and to go above those needs for the guests. We also make memories worth repeating. Dollywood takes care of their employees which creates an amazing woke environment. The sensory room was placed after I had left but it has been a great addition to the park.
Jess, what does woke mean? I´ve seen that word alot lately.
@@davidhintz1 woke is mostly used to describe people who are very socially aware
Thank you!!! Being here in Germany I am not up on the newest lingo. ;o)
@@davidhintz1 no problem!
I was a performer at Dollywood back in 2007. :)
Those little girls clearly were not being rude, its obvious that they were just curious. So nice that you explained things to them. Hey I just though of a new t shirt for my son that says Google Autism, ha.
I love that he didn’t even question his dad about protecting his sister!
Lol yeah! 😁😁
It's interesting to explain autism to curious people. I actually like doing it. Children tend to actually accept and try to understand the explanation. I have no problem explaining autism to anyone, even if they are somewhat rude in asking.
noahconstrictor100 I do aswell. I never pass up an opportunity to explain to people. The more common one is explaining that autism doesnt have a “look”.
@@hyd8523 Absolutely. Autistic people are just people. The autistic population is just as diverse as the human population.
I would not call them rude they are curious .
The little girls were so focused on what you were saying. . .. you taught them such a good life lesson.
Good job Ms. Priscilla. But I also want to bring some attention to ISAIAH for immediately charging off after those kids to tell them about Abbie at Asa's command. It makes me want to be a better big brother to my sisters. You are a wonderful family.
Dollywood is the first autism-friendly theme park.
Sesame place was the first autism certified centre and theme park in the world!
Is it?
I thought Disney land was.
Dark Wolf I think Disney was the first disability/service animal friendly park, not autism.
That train whistle was horrific.
Psshhh, I love train whistles! It was awesome!
@@fatheringautism the noise was creepy
@@fatheringautism Imagine hearing that in the middle of the night.
Shush the trains name is Cinderella and works hard lol
I loved the train whistles! I loved it when it seemed like it was doing jingle bells lol
Omg those wee girls, i am actually crying at the cuteness of their understanding
Abbie has such a busy life. I wouldn't be able to keep up with all that activity... I'd be socially exhausted by the noises and lights and people. She's doing well.
I always explain to children when they ask questions about my wheelchair but I use a lot of sarcasm with adults who stare and make comments.
We have to educate our children as they are our next generation and they will bring about change about disability.
I have a service dog, and kids of course when they see a dog they want to go pet and talk to them. So I always explain to them what a service dog is and what the etiquettes are when you see someone with a service dog. But when I have adults that clearly know its a service dog start talking to and calling over my service dog, I stand up to them and be more "aggressive" towards them and using sarcasm because they are adults. They know what a service dog is. And they usually reply with "Then don't bring it out in public if you don't want people to talk to your dog" and I always tell them "I need her and if not I could have a seizure and possibly not make it alive, and guess what would be YOUR fault"
The Bamboo Crew good for you, adults should absolutely know better. Years ago there were only service dogs for the blind but now there are so many types of service dogs that people, no matter how uninformed about disability, will know about service dogs and the etiquette of when a dog is wearing its vest then it’s working. Some of the vests even have written on them “do not talk to or distract”. It’s not rocket science!
.
I’m 18 and would be considered an adult but if I see someone in a wheelchair or with a missing limb or something I often times do look not to be rude but out of curiosity and do wonder if maybe something happened or if they were born that way. I would never make a rude comment tho but sometimes I do get caught looking and I do hope that it’s not taken as rude just because I’m older I truly am just curious!
When you mentioned about adults being judgment I wanted to cry. Our son has sensory issues and while the school has been amazing and we work hard at home, he sometimes has meltdowns. I guess one day he had slapped and bit his friend at school (junior kindergarten) & the teacher called and I was mortified and sought out more resources immediately. Things were good until I went to parent teacher interviews one evening and as I was waiting these two moms were sitting outside bashing my son (not knowing that I was his mom, and I didn’t have him with me). The things they said were awful! They even said his parents should be reported to CPS :( I started bawling and left the building, I was devastated as we do everything possible for our son. When I went back in and talked to his teacher, she said it was a one time thing and he’d actually been making big improvements. The teacher and ECE also started crying because of just how awful adults can be. It was ignorance. Those moms didn’t know my son or our struggle to help him.
Adults are so ugly, and just to think they are teaching their children. People don't know what we go through, so they shouldn't judge us. I'm sorry that happened to you.
Capri Sanzari oh my god I’m so sorry you had to deal with that. One time my son bit a student randomly and to make matters worse the year before he bit that same boys older brother! I was so embarrassed and sad and worried but it was a random situation and the mother was so kind! She made me cry just because I was expecting the worst and she was the opposite. Hang in there momma there are kind humans out there as well 💙
You made me cry , I also have a non verbal son with SPD . I see the looks and gossiping about my son and how we parent him. It hurts and it used to make me feel ashamed but now I just educate wether they want to hear it or not. How they respond determines how I deliver my message😁
I’m so sorry you went through this. Unfortunately this is a very big reason for awareness, not only to make our special needs childrens’ lives better but to also make people in general more empathic. Be strong, be kind and don’t give up.
It sucks when adults act like that. I wish people had more sympathy towards others different than them and/their children. But we have to just keep on educating people and carrying on. I’m sure you’re an awesome
mother!
Also it is currently my goal and dream to write children's books about autism, mental health, and self care. I think it is so important. 💜
I'd love to one day read one of your books. Best of luck!
PLEASE go for it, I’d read them to every generation I come across.
it is my goal to make a comic series about autism instead, I hope you can achieve your goal!!
@@litrallynotmebruh9531 Comedy is a huge relief for me when it comes to my mental health. Heck, you could say laughing is an essential part of mental health. May you never get writers/thinkers block as you work on those goals. I'd love to see it. 😊
If you are german there is a wonderful comic series named „Schattenspringer“. Only GREAT!!!!!! The author is sooo great too
“She’s crying tears of joy” 😂😂❤️ I just love Isaiah
Idk why one of your videos was in my recommendation section but I am hooked on y’alls vids. I am absolutely hooked. Y’all are a great supportive family for Abby
Much love
Gracie
The tram is like a big golf cart, Ab.
Wait hold up. It is actually
I just love how you encourage Abbie to try new things and she ends up loving 🥰
"i have a map. the man with the map is in charge. this isn't a map"
The way I have heard stimming explained is that they are producing output to cope with the input they are bombarded with. Lights, smells, noise touch it is all coming at them at once. They stim , rocking, flap thire hands and make vocal noises to offset this.
I have Highfunctioning Autism and I wish that my parent understood my stimming and where as supportive as you guys are of Abby.
I love Isaiah’s love for Abby. He was more then ready to go tell the boys that Abby has autism and that’s why she was making the movements and sounds. Brothers are the best.
"they have a whole building just called Christmas" classing Dad joke smh😂
I love that children are just so open. They're not judgy - they are curious and just want to know. The freedom to be allowed to ask about something without feeling you're going to offend is a gift. How will anyone ever learn about others if we are too scared to ask?
i love that Isaiah was going to do what you asked him to do and tell those kids she has autism. just being such a good big brother!! so sweet!
Woahhhh Isaiah was ready to beat someone up! Such a great big brother! Go cilla, go cilla!! So so important, you know those girls are gonna keep what you told them as they grow up! Love yall keep it up!! Apple pie 😂
I love how quickly Isaiah was going to go defend his sister. that was the sweetest thing
There’s nothing like southern hospitality. They have a beautiful community even the lady bigs are wishing you good luck
Isaiah’s face when he saw Abbie’s smile was amazing. The degree to which this family is patient, and constantly caring is just astounding.
*You guys are amazing parents. Don’t let anybody tell you anything different.*
The bond between Isaiah and Abbie gets me all teary eyed every single time! 😭💖
So cool that Abbie taught these little girls how to sign, shows that everyone has their own unique way of communicating.
So happy to see her smiling once the tram got going. That struggle to get through the initial stuff is rough sometimes. It seemed like after the first time she did much better riding.
That’s awesome that they have everything marked so you can see where you can find what you’re lookin for accessibility wise.
Overall it just looks like a fun place!
I like that Isaiah was all about to go on a mission in big brother mode.
Love the teachable moments especially with youth, it is SO important!! They are harmless and they just want to know and once you tell them, it’s just like oh okay. I love that they followed up with questions. We don’t always get such great opportunities to educate in real life so when you do, it’s so great!
Priscilla, you were amazing with those kids! I am learning through your channel that it is SO much better to come up to you and say something nice than just stare. It never ceases to amaze me how people can be so rude and hateful. Thank God they weren't in this case. The parents really appreciated you talking to their children and educating them as to what's going on with Abbie. Y'all are amazing!!
I absolutely love how Isaiah holds Abbie’s hand and cuddles her when she’s overwhelmed💙 Much respect and love:)
Here is a idea I use that be good for you to try. I printed up some business cards with my service dog's picture, a little about why I have him, and service dog etiquette. So many parents shush their kids anytime they look at us. Most kids are just curious, so when parents shush them, I go up and say my dogs pretty cute huh? I then have him give them a card. I let them know it's okay to be curious and to ask someone with a service dog if they would mind telling you little about their dog. I reassure them he gets lots of pets and hugs when he is not working and let them know if we are out and he doesn't have his work clothes vest on, that they are more than welcome to come pet him. I know you guys don't use maverick as a service dog, but you could print up some cards that says she has autism and make make noises and gestures most teenagers don't. You could put your CZcams channel on the card if they want to learn more. These are especially helpful in cases where I maybe don't have time to do a 20 minute explanation of everything but still feel it's important to let them know why I have him.
BottleBabies Reborns this is such a good idea!! I love that its very polite and helps everyone in the situation i hope they see this!
Thats really awesome. I know a lot of people are irritated by the constant questions but as someone who doesn't know anyone with a service dog im curious and intrigued. Id like to know more (like what the dog can do/training etc, not really what condition the person has or such) but i dont know how to go about asking without seeming rude
This is so great because if kids are taught to not ask questions and to not be curious then they will never be educated about these types of things. I know I was told to never ask questions about different types of people because it was rude but not knowing about them made me think of them as more and more different. I might have been able to identify my anxiety early before I was diagnosed maybe if I had a little more education about anxiety and anxiety service dogs I might have been able to get the things I needed earlier.
I will also try the cards with my service dog because it is a really cool idea if I do not have alot of time.
What an amazing big brother she has. Brings me to tears to see the support he give her and ready to educated anyone who doesnt understand. You 2 have raised incredible children
😢 omg this made me tear up because the stares in the public ya r awesome the way ya handled it especially spreading awareness to the young people is awesome because they r our future #autismacceptance
I'm totally blind, and I like it when parents tell me their little ones are curious about me and would like to meet me. That's always neat. :-)
Nicely done, Pricilla! Kids love to learn about new things. They will never forget Abby.
My 4 year old son has autism and he has meltdown all the time my son doesn’t talk he sometimes repeats stuff and he makes noises and gets upset and people look and I know they think my son is being a brat or what’s wrong with him and it upset me I wanna cry cause people are mean and I love my son my son has freak out stuff where he will throw his hands around and put weird stuff in his mouth that he isn’t soppoused to do ... I love watching your guys stuff
I have experienced the same thing with my autistic son. Stares, glares judgement, condemnation.
You guys are so awesome! I think we need to go to Dollywood this summer! We tried once...long, funny story, epic fail! Priscilla, you live in Florida!! You let that lady bug get you?! 😂🤣😁 Now food in the car and bears..that's another story! 😉💕
I just want to Thank you both for always taking the time to explains to others about Autism.
I am a parent who’s oldest son who has ASD, and I wish ppl would just ask questions, instead of starring and whispering. We need more acceptance, and less judgement!
I live in a small town, and Autism is not talked about especially within the school district. Our children within our school district need to be taught about Autism and other students who have different special needs so they are excepted at a young age.
Keep up the great work you do educating others 😀👍💕
When i was in elementary school we had what was then called a TMC/special education class and when i was in 4th grade I was able to apply to "work" in the classroom as a teachers helper. I was accepted and paired up with a blind kid named Eric, he was also non verbal autistic. Of course then we didn't call it that then... I am 43 years old now & still think of him on a regular basis... he had a lot of the same mannerisms/stims as Abbie does.
Thank you for teaching those girls about Abbie and making these vlogs so others can learn!
I feel that this channel is great in educating people about Autism.
Abbie’s sleepy stim XD ahh, i felt that.
I’m loving your channel so much!
Priscilla had me cracking up over lady bug, I am the same way.❤️😂👍🏽
I absolutely love the way Isiah takes care of his sister. It appears he does not mind helping with his sister and that made my heart happy. Big ups to you Isiah! You Rock.
I remember when i was a little kid, there was a girl in my kindergarten class who was also non-verbal, and all the other kids avoided/bullied her. One day i was really bored so i engaged this girl in some playing with dolls. I didn’t think much of it, but when her parents came to pick her up, they came up to me and thanked me for playing with her! I didn’t think it was a big deal, but it must’ve been really hard to know their daughter didn’t get to play with other kids.
cool video. i'm 15 and in 9th grade i'm just like Abbie i had special needs since birth but wasn't diagnoused until i was 3 my dad understands me my nanny don't really understand it and say she needs to act her age when my brain is not 15. i have anxiety and i get really anxious in front of a lot of people. like at stories, visiting with family, even at school cause i go to a normal school but in a special needs setting and it's always a lot of people there we have over 1,000 something kids from 9 - 12 switching classes at the same time so i'm in the hallway with 1,000.
congrats
I can not emphasize this enough. Your family is so amazing. It is so important that people understand. Thank you thank you thank you thank you for the work you do!!!!!!
I absolutely love Abbie !!! I’m so glad my son doesn’t stare at people with disabilities! I worked Hoth handicapped and disabled adults. The people loved deon! So he understood at a young age that some people are just different and that ok! Abbie is such a star.
It made me so happy when her brother was about to go say something to those little kids just shows us how much he loves her ❤
I don’t know how I stumbled upon your channel but I haven’t been able to stop watching all week. What you guys do is amazing, and your videos are genuine and real. Both of your children are awesome. Thank you guys for being you!
Great job with the kids! Good getting on the kids level and telling them
kids are amazing. I work with kids and a member of our staff has special needs and work trains at our preschool & we have student with autism and kids just GET IT. they LOVE our special needs staff & tries their best to communicate. it's amazing
Some ppl just don't understand Autism. I think you are doing a super great job. My cousin gets picked on at times but not anymore she goes to a special needs school much better now
This whole video made me so freaking happy.
Im so pleased when i go out and find places have added accommodations for special needs people. The whole world should follow
I totally agree. 💖💖💖
This world is blessed to have fathering autism so they can help spread the word and educate other people about autism. So lovely to see people making a difference.
i clicked on one of y’all videos because it was recommended to me, and i wanted to check it out, but i like how you don’t necessarily get angry at kids because they look and you explain which is one of the best things to me! I’m 16 and i haven’t explored what autism is and how people with it function and i think that y’all open up a whole new way i can view things and i’m hooked!! love y’all so much, mckenna💛
Hello! I just happened to come across one of your videos and I can't stop watching your channel now. I have never personally known anyone with autism but I appreciate learning more about it through your videos. Love your family! ❤
We've been to Dollywood! Perfect way to describe it is "Apple Pie". We felt like Everyone who works there was there was there to make sure our personal needs were taken care b4 we even ask!❤ thank you Priscilla for making me laugh with the lady bug! 😂 God bless y'all
I'm so grateful to have been introduced to special needs children from a very young age. My kindergarten class had an autistic girl who I befriended when no one else would, and then a few years later I was in brownies (pre-girl scouts) with a really sweet girl who had downs syndrome, and all the girls in the group were AMAZING to her, always willing to help and make her feel welcome. I always just had the mindset that they were humans like everyone else, but just needed a bit more help, or different ways to do things. It's really beautiful though how accepting and kind kids can be if you just educate them and help them understand
Wow the girls are so sweet! And the mum was so supportive too. 😊
21:20 Isaiah just smiling at the camera as he walks by 😅
I love how Isaiah was so ready to go tell those kids
I’m so stinking proud of you! Isaiah is such an amazing grown man/brother!!! Praise you for raising such an loving man for this world!
I love love love when Isaiah holds Abbie's hand to calm and comfort her @ 3:21.
He is such an amazing brother.
I went to an appointment for SSI a few months ago, in the waiting room, 2 little boys came up to my son to ask him if he wanted to play. My son said, "Don't talk to me." I apologized to them, explained to them that he has Autism and I explained to my son that they just wanted to play. When they asked him again he said yes and they all played together. When we had to leave, my son did not want to go. He has issues transitioning and every time he gets comfortable somewhere he doesn't want to go. Priscilla with that ladybug, I'm the same way. LOL. I'm terrified of all things creepy crawly. Even butterflies. It doesn't even have to touch me. Just merely seeing a bug, or thinking about bugs, makes me feel like I have them in my mouth, or in my hair.
I love Priscilla! Her reactions to everything is so sweet. ❤
The flailing in sync with the music always makes my day haha
I'm addicted to this channel now. thanks.
0:11 “GETT IT OFF OF MEEE”🤣
What you did and explained , with signing that was amazing, way to go👌 and teaching that there is a different way of speaking and Abbi tought the girls 2 signing words way to go Abbi
I LOVE Pigeon Forge, we used to go twice a year before my husband passed away in 2017. We had been married 50 years and loved it up there. We rented a cabin and spent a week♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Big up to her brother I say! How lovely to see him being prepared to advocate for his sister without question, after his father instructs him. You guys have done a great job with ALL your children! x
I can’t breathe from laughing hysterically about Priscilla freaking out over the 🐞 ladybug lol
Same!! 😂😂😂
i find it hilarious how asa starts to slip into a southern accent. i, as well as most people in my family, do this all the time whenever we talk to any of my extended family because we live in virginia and my parents have converted their accents, but all the rest of my family lives in kentucky, south carolina, north carolina, or texas and every time we have a convo with them, we all start talking the same way
I love how your educating people on autism in a very nice way . Such a great family .
I totally teared up when Isaiah was so quick without hesitation ready to go tell those kids about Abbie!
I have autism I love watching your guys videos
Swirling Fizz Same.
Me too! 😊
sneakyMCR Howlter ok
sneakyMCR Howlter some days in school I just hate it cause everybody friking screams and there voices get louder when the bell rings it’s just dumb and my principal even told everyone to not scream because we have some people with sensitive ears and I smiled and shook my head up and down and everybody in my class was like ugh when is this announcement going to be over and I was like 😒 wow there rude
I love it when kids are curious. I have a few chronic conditions that mean I use mobility aids and you get really curious kids asking question like 'why are you in the car in a shop' when I am in a mobility scooter and the parents mostly say don't ask that sweetie and I am like no no it's ok and I explain in a way they understand. And when use crutches it's the same ' why do you have sticks ' and it literally just kids being curious. I find it's 9 out of 10 people who are rude or judgemental are adults and elderly oddly enough. That whom I get the most nasty comments from
I rather have people come up and ask why then just stare like idiots. Thank you so much for sharing your life. ❤️❤️❤️
I love how to took the time to explain to the kids why she was being loud, it’s so helpful for kids to understand at a young age that everyone is different and some people have special needs
We love when Abby smiles it just warms my heart ♥
Isaiah
My brother has a few different things he's been diagnosed with. Growing up my mother always told me and other kids that special people are Angels in disguise to help watch over everyone on Earth, so we should always be nice to them and spread the love they bring with them from Heaven. It's something I tell my sons too. It's something easy to say and understand as a child.
The interaction with the little girls melted my heart 😭❤️
My family loves the Apple Barn
Never miss it when we go Tennessee
I love Dollywood, my school would always take us on trips there at the end of the year! Dixie Stampede is really fun (and delicious). 💜💜💜
as someone who's been to dollywood countless times (i live 30 minutes away), ive never once noticed the symbols anywhere. really cool that they could do this for you guys, +respect dollywood
Abbie is so pretty ,I love how great Isiah is with Abbie always looking out for her and holding on to her,brilliant big bro.glad you have had a great holiday.x
That's cool they have a room if you need it. Cute. Fun. Like the lites. Thanks.
Oh mylanta! You threw that ladybug on her and I'm like - "Does he remember he's recording his own death right now? Poor Asa - we knew you when..... LOL 😆
I love how they made it a teaching opportunity with those girls it's so sweet how interested they were with learning about Abby I think that the situation was handled perfectly
I get kids asking about my daughter all the time. I love it when people (kids and/or parents) asking questions. The parents are the ones that don’t want there kids playing and/or talking to her. 😔 I’m so thankful for yawls videos and the amazing information yawl bring to the world.
