Becca probably has a brain and paid attention to the warnings about covid-19.something must have happened between Becca and them that she never comes around much. She teacges Abby alot more than any of them do.
Thank you.you're saying everything I'm thinking, and saying it wonderfully! we have all seen that she is capable of learning some of these tasks/skills, because we've seen her do them in the past, and she has regressed. and I understand that it would be exhausting to have to constantly work with her on these things - but they work from home, and this is their literal job. there is no excuse for them to not be following through on these things from school/ABA at home. they need to stop saying that Abbie thrives on chaos and start working on a schedule and consistency for her.
That is so wrong. The majority of us are on here want to protect Abbie from being exploited. Bummer is there because she is brain washed. She is young and finding her way. She stopped my the Masses on her way to adulthood and gets to be on YT. IMOwhat??? What did I miss? You can say that on here?
Yes. Ideally, the sooner the behaviours are dealt with, the better. I hate to be a downer, because I dont really think anyone is a lost cause, but... I don't really see any of them dealing with it until it's too late.Well (and I speak with 0 experience so bear that in mind )
Wouldn’t it be better to address the BEHAVIOUR since behaviour is communication?! And also, like other have been saying for ages on this page, ENTERTAIN HER! I think I now see what ppl mean when they say her anger is also out of boredom but also out of and not being listened to, eg if she wants a snack, yes A&P, it is still possible to give her a snack, maybe a cracker or some carrot sticks or something
All just imo
Yes. Waste of time. I dont think she was connecting it to crossing a street at all. Her father was saying walk and stop in her living room and Summer was guiding her by the shoulder. Abbie didnt have the vaguest idea of what she was doingDid anyone find it could of been alittle confusing to Abbie being taught to cross the street in the house? It screwed with my head...I think that was insulting to watch, waste of time, it’s almost patronizing
Yes, I am familiar with group homes. Abbie doesn’t give a duck who’s keeping her fed as long as she’s getting food. Abbie is not safe where she is or with them. Especially with asswipe and pissy drinking all day and night. Abbie is not properly supervised. At least in a facility she will be properly monitored 24/7.Have you been to a group home?
Frankly, most individuals in a group home are capable of much more than Abbie is. And yes, in a group home they are taught to open doors and gates, cook, cross the street....they arent sitting in padded rooms like an institution.
A&P are garbage, but we know Asa loves her. She would not be "loved" in a group home, she would be cared for by people who are also caring for 3 or 4 others. Abbie would regress and lash out, self harm, end up rocking in restraints and doped up.
others may have mentioned it as well, but that's a point I've said recently! it's great that noise and activity isn't a sensory trigger for her and that she actually enjoys it - but they can't pretend that that means she hates routines. imagine if there was more consistency in her life beyond going to school (late every day, at that). if they stuck to bedtimes and wake up times as much as possible, if she had to put her blankets and pillows back on her bed every morning, if they weren't constantly traveling and messing up her routine and instead making her repeat these skills. even them trying to teach her about her yelling stim, which regardless of whether or not it's possible to teach her that at this point, they are not consistent with at all - she is constantly yelling in the background without being told she has to go up to her room. there's no consistency in anything they do at home.Thank you.
You bring up another good point - in past videos we have seen her doing a lot of the things they're trying to get her to do now. This shows that she IS capable. But then Asa got more $$$ focused and wanting to be a big time youtuber and moved away from focusing on Abbie's autism (and her IDD altho they really dislike talking about that part). A&P got super lazy with taking care of Abbie's needs and, as we've been saying, she has now regressed. Not only that but Abbie has become accustomed to not having a lot asked of her and that has become her new normal and what is most comfortable for her. She's always had difficulties with transitions and so it's going to be a rough road getting her back to where she ought to be. As you said, it's going to be exhausting and stressful, but I don't think it's impossible.
I can't recall who said it, but another user on here said that it's not that Abbie thrives on chaos, but having a lot of action happening around her. She still relies on and needs her routines - she just enjoys some excitement going on because it's more enjoyable than rocking in the corner of the couch.
Are you suggesting that Dummer and Isaiah will be the ones to care for Abbie when ass and pissy are pushing up daisies?I worked in a group home for nearly a year. She would have to be not only in a very high level home, but you are right- we would not be able to handle someone like Abbie. My clients were mostly able to care for themselves (hygiene) if they were prompted. We made sure they had their meals and meds, their home was clean, but they were able to manage themselves much better than I have ever seen abbie do. She will always need intense one on one care. The best we could do for her would be to medicate the hell out of her, as we simply dong have the resources for someone of her needs.
It sucks and is sad, but is true. I'm glad that summer and Isaiah seem to care for abbie as much as they do, because someone needs to watch out for her after Asa and Priscilla pass away.
I agree that she definitely did not connect that to crossing the street at all. but considering that the last time they took her out to try and do it outside was when she bit her arm enough to draw blood, I actually don't blame them for not taking her out there again right away. however, there was probably a better way for them to work on this with her. starting by doing it outside, especially since that is where they moved her "classroom". they could have used tape or chalk on the sidewalk/their patio to try and stimulate there being a clear line of where the road starts, etc..Yes. Waste of time. I dont think she was connecting it to crossing a street at all. Her father was saying walk and stop in her living room and Summer was guiding her by the shoulder. Abbie didnt have the vaguest idea of what she was doing
He’s totally getting that same body... only thing that saved him was football. Now that he’s 18 ... we can sit back and watch the weight pile on as it has been recently #theserollsHas anyone noticed that Isaiah is getting the same body shape as his father, I'm trying to be diplomatic here
pink/zaza? same account? just wondering...Thank you.

I feel like there's a good chance, yeah. I know Isaiah will be in charge of her (there was a vlog quite a while ago). He would have access to her funds, to pay for her housing and caretaking needs. I will be very surprised if that's all he ends up doing.Are you suggesting that Dummer and Isaiah will be the ones to care for Abbie when ass and pissy are pushing up daisies?
Hey I don’t mean to be “that person” but ABA isn’t a great tool for autistic people...you could join a FB group for autistic people and parents etc of autistic people called “Autism Inclusivity” or read writings by autistic people too..Many autistic people are very outspoken about the harms of ABA, which is a big reason why they *hate* Fathering Autism, because of how they treat Abbie. P even went in the group after someone snitched about who called CPS on them, and people tried to educate her, and she wouldn’t listen...Yes. Ideally, the sooner the behaviours are dealt with, the better. I hate to be a downer, because I dont really think anyone is a lost cause, but... I don't really see any of them dealing with it until it's too late.
They just laugh and somehow find it cute. I used to feel bad for them when I first found them because I know I wouldn't be able to deal with it (I have two autistic children myself, am generally known as a patient person, and have an ABA background)
If they started now, Abbie would greatly benefit. Sadly, I just dont see it happening.
Nope. Not the same account.pink/zaza? same account? just wondering...
