This article shows clearly that Isaiah has never been able to have autonomy.
He does talk a bit about his photography business and his friends, but the fact that he mentioned his father's YouTube channel, number of subscribers, Abigail, Autism, content creation, editing, "dad is an incredibly business minded blah blah", empathy for mom crying about prom and her ongoing victim role.
His future employers, clients, friends, associates, partners can see all of this in a Google search. Do you really want them to judge or label you because of your anxiety or your sister's diagnosis? Of course they are a big part of your life, some things need to be private, you don't have to make them your identity. I hope he understands this one day.
I mean, he is a sweet kid but in my day a senior in high school wouldn't talk about his anxiety disorder, siblings disability, summer bod whatever. I was too busy planning for the future, trying to get all the college credit, scholarships, awards, job hunting skills, and career info that I could. Busting my butt to keep my honors status, working to build a good portfolio, learning how to create a resume, what I needed to succeed in college. Senior year was busy, and quarantine should give him time to focus on all those things, not just vlog footage, editing, caring for Abigail, learning from his dad's"business mind".
Dad won't be going to college with you. You will have professors and experts to train you for the real world. Your dad doesn't have an education and is holding you back.
Shame on Prisilly and Asa for making this boy a third caregiver. Shame on them for not letting him have his own life. Shame on them for being arrogant, self-centered, controlling, inconsiderate, worthless parents.
