Wondering why Brandi is again working with Abbie. Her Brandi therapy sessions from three years ago showed more promise and progress than the present day. And what’s with the tantrums when coming home from Emily’s birthday party. Her behavior is just spiraling and they appear to just excuse it.

Asa, you know Abbie is upset because you're telling us about it, but it doesn't cross your mind to stop filming her? Can you even imagine feeling upset and being filmed? I think Brandi sucks for letting Asa film their sessions.

While I'm not very hopeful of it working (mainly due to A&P's aversion to consistency), I do think it's a good idea to try to teach Abbie that breaks are limited. Honestly, I don't know why they never tried doing this sooner. It was obvious and has been for quite some time that Abbie uses signing 'break' or 'bathroom' just to get out of doing something she doesn't feel like doing. In addition to that, Abbie found that if she throws enough of a hissy fit and fusses enough, that she'll get out of doing whatever it is she doesn't want to do. I think it often gets pretty bad. That's why you'll see a clip of Asshat asking her to do something and her shaking her head 'no' and then a jump cut where she finally does what's being asked of her. Kind of makes me wonder if Asshat yells at her off camera.

I was thinking the same thing of what transpires off camera. I know it all can’t be sunshine and flowers.

Asshat being the know it all he wishes was telling Brandi what to do. Abbie is never going to be non prompted, since Asshat loves the control. Maybe Asshat should be getting ABA, as well as Abbie. Maybe Moonpig too.

This was more for the humpers than anything else, and I don't know why Brandi hasn't gone off on Moobie or Moonpig yet?

Maybe she was mad, because she didn't want to go out. Or Moonpig gives her the magic go go drink, and this is what you get afterwards?

As I have said a million times, if they let her have some sensory input, she would be more cooperative. Where are those new toys they brought?

Abbie having a tantrum..not because she wants to keep going in the cart...because they didn't go to dunkin...they try to play it off as Abbie wants to go go go.... and that is why Asshat took her on the honking across America tour. They always have an angle.

And wow.. the screech at the end...omg!

This is the type of stuff we do with my son. But we are at the point now where we don't even utilize a visual schedule for home. All I have to do is verbally go over the schedule with him and end it with whatever he wants to do. We've been doing this for years already.

P thinks she’s so cool in her frayed denim jacket and frayed jeans, but she looks daft. She’s a forty year old woman wearing an outfit for a teen. And again, she had her hands in her pockets, standing looking all manly.

They better get used to Abbie being angry because that girl does not like doing chores and has learned that throwing tantrums often gets her out of things. Teaching her life skills every day is going to be fun to watch.

Oh yes, this was my son as well. Except we were on to this years ago and I would bring it up during every therapy or school lesson. His staff would all agree and we would keep on top of things. Otherwise, he will honestly just walk all over people. I hope they are prepared for her behaviors to get worse now that they are being a little more demanding, because they will. But you have to stick to it. That is the hard part. This is where homeschooling will be the most exhausting. Because Abbie will try to get out of doing tasks and instead of having an entire staff available for behavioral intervention, it will be mainly just them. My son tested every single new teacher/staff that came into our house. And when I say tested, I mean he tested them. I couldn't just leave the room because he'd run all over a new person. It's not going to be as easy as they think. This follow through will all fall on them. Her therapist is only there for maybe an hour at a time. It was after the therapists leave and I am the one implementing things where he upped the behaviors tenfold to see if I'd give in. Those times are HARD.

I don’t think any competent and professional therapist would agree to be filmed with her client In these circumstances, meaning a child who is so utterly exploited. Also there are already numerous videos of Brandy working with Abbie on same tasks. Why agree to do it?

This was just sad to watch. Abbie will never be able to do the things that Asa suddenly wants from her.
She didnt know to take the lid off of the bowl to rinse it until she was told. Ditto with putting items in the dishwasher- Asa told her each time.
She was pushing the vacuum quite literally how a toddler would. Not caring where it goes, and slamming it about. Notice the jump cut- Abbie was squealing and laughing on the rug, then we jump to a solemn Abbie vacuuming by the stairs.
The tantrums alone are going to prevent her from being employable, even if she has a coach with her. She cant just stop or refuse, and I also doubt she can use her "break" system at a real work site.
And lastly, they didnt show her unpack her bag but she had a pair of dirty jeans again. I dont understand. She may not be toilet trained, fine- but how is it she needs to change pants so often? Those pull-ups they use must be very very cheap. Pisses me off they wont spend HER money and buy her a quality product. The fact that they dont shows how much they care about her "dignity".

Why was summer at the birthday party? Abby really has no clue what is being asked of her about 95% of the time. When they went into his sisters house she just dropped her backpack in the middle of the floor. I stopped watching at that point, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t make her pick it up. And they really need to enforce shoe wearing. Abby won’t be able to take her shoes off at a job site!

Cilldebeast doesn't even use the right makeup brush to create the crease on her eyelids .

And, in my opinion, she needs to wear a shorter style. She is way too old for that long hair. She is utterly ridiculous.

Love you @Whimsical, I took screenshots of his teeth from that vlog but never posted them. He has lots of stain on his front teeth just like I mentioned the other day. Definitely from neglect. He has the money to take care of his oral health but chooses not to because he's a P*ssy bitch about it.

Oh, lookie, she walks away with a couple of ziplock baggies from the birthday party. I don't think she can leave anywhere without making sure she gets some of the leftovers. Is that all the leftover bread? Fatso
