On today's autism family vlog: Andy came home from school asking for food he's never asked for before - so of course, we took him out to get it, and then took him to his favourite church as a reward. But then things got even stranger, when he asked for two more brand new foods, and we come up with an idea for tomorrow...

ABOUT KEVIN CHAPMAN
Hi, I'm Kevin Chapman, a full-time CZcamsr, author, podcaster, speaker and occasional teacher from Peterborough, UK. As part of my daily vlog I release new videos every day at 5pm UK time with topics including life as an autism family, conventions and geek culture, technology, education and tutorials and entrepreneurship.
When I left my full-time as a Computer Science teacher in July 2017, my partner, Anna, was trapped in our house by our son Andy, who is autistic and had refused to go to school for 18 months. Our daughters Lucy and Amy and our dog Dave hardly saw me because I was always working to try and solve all our problems! Today I'm a full-time content creator who's always at home when my kids get home from school (all our kids!) and Anna has been able to return to university. This channel is the story of my family's ongoing journey as family vloggers! Previously known as lollujo Vlogs.

the way he has developed over the years is mad like going to school, eating and his behaviour
Do you mean in a good way or a bad way
llama squad it seems to be in a good way
Disgrace not saying Oh yeah yeah
Just Wow! I never thought watching someone eat a fish finger would make me clap my hands, I was so pleased for you.
I love how during your conundrum about how to reach the bins at 2:20 thereâs a pile of step ladders in the background đ
I cried a little! So proud of you parents for not giving up! HE DID IT THAT'S AMAZING!!!!!!
Pro trick: you can watch movies on flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching lots of of movies recently.
@@josephtimothy4630 donât comment this on a nice wholesome video
3:04 all the old people stared đ
I like how Anna is sitting and scratching Andyâs head it is so sweet to see
Iâve been watching you channel for about 1 year and I feel like I know Andys personality and it is amazing to see him tying new foods
What a difference a year makes !
Such amazing parenting from both of you. Andy is ever so lucky to have you both! & well done Andy! You did so great and I canât wait to see you grow big and strong! đ„â€ïž
I'm proud of Andy for trying the new food, keep it up Andy!
Did anyone else notice the step ladder right next to the minion thing they couldn't reach? Lolđ you can see it from 2:15 - 2:20
2:16 there are step ladders on the far left to get the bins
Wow this made me really emotional. I remember how excited you guys were when he touched a beefburger and took it out the bun for the first time. Well Done Andy, You have done so well and will be reaching those bells in no time!
I worked at a day hab with autistic individuals and other types of of disabilities, and you truly celebrate the little things! I was in tears because I remember feeling that way with my âbabiesâ. Keep up the fantastic work guys!
These past few days have been amazing and almost unbelievable. So proud of Andy for trying new food and Kev and Anna for not giving up
It must be frustrating to see Andy go to eat it then spit it out. But so proud of him in the end
Yes! This was major! I had a silly big grin this whole video. Andy eating the beef off the burger was such a huge accomplishment and then he added fish fingers! The boy has hit another milestone. I hope this little trend sticks around. But for now, Iâm so happy that Andy tried and he succeeded in eating protein. I hope he enjoyed it! Yay Andy! Yay Mummy and Daddy!
Amazing!!!
I nearly cried Andy is doing so amazing
I won't even try 1 new food in a day. Good job, Andy!!
Have you tried feeding Andy any other protein sources? For example beans nuts or seeds.
(Also well done Andy on trying the new foods)
just catching up on the vlogs after being on holiday and I am so happy for you guys ! Working as a support worker for adults with additional needs, I know how massive this break through is for you all. I have followed you guys from the start and I am quite emotional watching this! can't wait to see what else Andy tries
WOW!! That's amazing one week he totally despises meat and the next he's willing to try anything to get the bells just shows how much he has improved !
So proud of Andy and how far he has come in the 3 months I have been watching I found myself grinning so much when he was eating these new foods
so wholesome omg
Anna loves him so much đ„Č so precious
It's great to see Andy trying food that is out of his comfort zone. You guys are amazing!!!!
Hi you should try Andy with pasta then you can start and things into the pasta
Kev, I know you kept questioning yourself, whether it was morally right and I think progress, is what youâre aiming for and progress is what youâre getting. I understand you donât want to cheat Andy, but as you say and you do so in front of Andy; hopefully he will start to understand that growth takes time and youâre not lying to him. Sometimes as parents, when the goal is so significant as eating to thrive, it doesnât matter how you get there. The excitement he sees in you and Anna, are definitely driving him to try and youâre being honest with him; so I say well done. Dead proud of Andy đđŒ
I feel so sorry for you guys, I think you deserve, and need more help with Andy-donât get me wrong, ur AWESOME and SUPERHEROES-but I think u need and deserve more professional guidance and help with Andy. Hang in there and keep trying-and keep on pushing his boundaries little by little!
When everyone looked at Kev leaving the shop like he is an Alien. đ
Big well done to Andy for trying the burger thatâs meat !!!
OMG so proud of Andy for eating the fish gingers and the burger and love when he shouts yeahhhh at the end of the vlog xx
I can't believe you take them out the boxes. ....I only have 2 and I keep them in the box đ
Well done Andy!! I am now however going to have to venture into the bottom of the freeze to find some fish fingers for my tea!
Omg Iâm so proud of Andy and of you all. Heâs coming on leaps and bounds.
So this was the start of the fish fingers. Amazing!
The funny thing is they were standing in front of a collection of stepladders while contemplating how to get down the minion tin đ
hi kev, tomorrow im doing a cooking lesson and we're making blognese but i have a phobia of minced meat so im really nervous xx so proud of andy for trying some new food
RĂžsĂšy Msp what a strange phobia lol
yeah I understand what you mean
Donât worry bolognese is lovely!
Good luck. Today I was actually too scared to go to school at allđ¶
Ask you teacher if u can have some rubber gloves or if u have any at home take them tp school with u when u do food xđ
Well done Andy! Maybe you could try some sort of token system where he can collect tokens by taking bites of new food items and when he has collected enough he can go ring the bells?
Omg Andy well done were all so proud
Way to go Andy!! He is growing leaps and bound
Andy is doing so well this week with food! He is making me so happy
Wow :^o Thats so much progress! I was really surprized, I dont even know Andy irl and I'm so proud of him. I know how hard it is to try new foods.
Kev you know how Andy doesnât like eyes, does he mind the photos on the walls?
Andy! Thatâs fantastic!!!!!
I donât consider this pushing. You were both encouraging in a very positive way.
Burger AND fish fingers?! Thatâs crazy.
Burger AND fish fingers?! Thatâs crazy.
That's awesome Andy. Well done đđ
WELL DONE ANDY I know how hard it is trying new food
That was awesome. My son loves cheeseburger, fries and sweet tea. I got him to eat that at all of restaurants. My son still doesn't like soups and casseroles.
My son is the same with food he eats meat but trying to get him to eat fish fingers he gags he was diagnosed in March very proud of Andy for trying xxx
Well I say meat he only eats chicken nuggets and hotdogs and sometimes sausages when he feels like it
So proud of you Andy, gave me a huge smile knowing you really have gave it a go, well done matey.
@Kevinchapman What about if
Monday Fish fingers
Tuesday Nuggets
Wednesday burger
Result bells come down on thursdays
Fish fingers are awesome and well done to Andy
Andy is doing so well with the food lately good job mate!
I'm so proud of him thats better than nothing
That was a LOT of exposure to the burger meat in McDonald's, even if Andy didn't swallow much of it, which is fantastic progress! You should all be so proud of him for making so many attempts at it. The fish fingers will have fish oils in them, as well as protein, and that will be really good for his brain.
You deserve 100k sub's for your excellent vids Andy makes my day better
6:00, Thought dave was about to be sat on đđ
Shoutout to London Grammar in the background whilst andy was ewting the burger đđđđđ
Iâm so happy that he tried new food
Storm Ali hit Scotland worst well I was in Paris đđ but my grandparents were very unhappy also my dadâs friend ALI was slagged about being a storm â
Omg Anna is so good with Andy like I wouldnât be able to do that with my dog
Fantastic dude great way to eat 5+ grams of protein (put the plus as there must have been a little bit in the burger as well)
Bless him
Well done Andy!! God bless him. Heâs done so good. I hope some day it just gets easier for him and he actually enjoys the taste. Good job buddy!!!
Manute Bol would have trouble reaching those flipping bells! They're absurdly high
11:26 he chucked the chicken out of his mouth
Well done Andy you are doing so well keep it up buddy go Andy Andy your a star x
Great job Andy and I'm so pleased he will actually get his reward of bell ringing to make him feel he's had a result from trying new food :-)
Iâm so happy for you keep it up Andy you have come such a long way
Way to go Andy keep try new foods Iâm so proud of you Andy keep try new foods for me
I have autism to it is hard to try food but Iâm more verbal your kid had a good job with food
Super proud of him! Well done Andy, heâs made so so much progress.
Bearing in mind how often he's almost sick trying new foods Andy did good. Also maybe buy loads of things coated in breadcrumbs
Andy has made alot of progress and I'm really impressed with him.
Great Job on the New Foods! What a Sweetheart! đ€đđ€đđ€
honestly getting to see this progress every day is such an inspiring thing, thanks kev
When Andy comes home. I had a micro heart attack as you almost flattened Dave
Daves eating tnt call the rspca
I am so proud of you Andy for trying new foods keep up the good work and you will soon be tall enough to reach the ropes đ
Do a food calendar each days diffent protein or food .
Andy, awesome!!!!!
Great job Andy!
OMG! Does his dietian watch your vlog? I'm cheering him on all the way!!!! From what I understand, he's not hardly eaten anything but pop, crisps, and buns for a year or more. So the fact he is trying new foods is AMAZING! I think the biggest problem now is sensory issues with the foods. You and Anna are doing a fabulous job cheering him on! Just keep doing what your doing with getting the food as soon as you can after he agrees to eat it, cheer him on, and continue to make a big deal about it. Realistically, it may take trying a new food 20+ times for him to actually eat it rather normally. Have Anna keep up like she did at McDonalds. Good job guys!
Heâs been on that very limited diet for most of his life. Itâs amazing seeing him trying new things voluntarily
I'm really curious about what shop the "frame shop" is, but not sure you are allowed to tell me.
I had the biggest smile on my face watching this!!! Well done andy!! đ
7:34 is he doing what I think he is đ€đ
Xyphun they need to fix that behavior ASAP
Can I just say how fucking amazing it is that Andy is trying new food đ
Love Andy's playlist.
Yay Andy well done super proud off you â€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïžâ€ïž
Just out of curiosity, does Andy watch this vlog? Only wondering because over the last month you talked about him needing protein several times and fish sticks and peas both have protein. I've noticed he is exceptionally bright and he seems to grasp the concept of protein helping grow and that he needs to eat it more than once to grow.
Sarah Schondelmeyer he sometimes does but probably doesnât pay attention to that
he did great... do you think putting a small amount of sauce on the plate could help
Oh try those omega 3 fish fingers! Well done Andy !!
I think it is good for you guys to not move out it might take a really long time for Andy to get used to a new house. I know that was really random but ya.
Heâs making so much progress!
Great vlog Kev, so happy that Andy is trying new foods. Have you heard of a book called Green Eggs and Ham. It's a great book that got me to try new foods when I was younger.
3:00 those people wondering who he is talking to
well done andy bet your all proud of him ! xxx
Well done Andy that's awesome
andy is progressing really good and it's mad how much he has changed over the span of a year great vlog as well :)
Well done Andy!! Just whatched the one where he eats chicken
At first i saw this in my recommended thing and i thought I wouldnât like it but now im subbed
