OMG... I'm sure all the rabid HUMPERS will be applying. How are you going to find someone on facebook... they are so stupid!!! Spend the money and hire professionals!!!... Maybe that HUMPER that always asks about Abbie will apply that man/woman with a beard?

Oh Man oh Woman! We cannot be THAT lucky, can we?

When they talked about pulling Abbie out of JSA they said they were going to hire a teacher to work with Abbie on OT, life skills and.taking her into the community. Prissypoo posted on her Facebook they were looking for a teacher.

Oh I know they did. There was a vlog shortly after the vlog that announced leaving jsa. He said they not homeschooled, they were just pulling her out. So that’s why I’m confused. Is he saying that it’s not home schooling because they aren’t teaching? Or did they change their mind and just not do anything school related

not had this recycled topic in a while asa. Good job Asa




After having watched it, the title and the caption on the thumbnail bear absolutely zero resemblance to what happens or is talked about in the video. Again a pointless vlog full of nothingness. Just more car rides for dunkin and having to drag Abbie out late at night to lock up Selfiewrld and Asa waffling on about homeschooling and taking a trip

 

[KateK]

They are actually TRAINING her to stay in the car... Pig just went to Dunkin... then they go back again and get munchkins ?? The car is actually a food/donut/treat machine to her.

Poking Dunkin is her great communications.. well I guess Zaxby, cart ride, chipotle

What did I miss???
What about this vlog made him not worry about the future??
What was he babbling about- "this, this is our thing, our thing we got going on now..." ???
This was a bunch of jibberish.

Imagine having such a large platform and criticizing a free service run by volunteers for Autistic kids that is attempting to broaden its availability because you don’t like the fact it’s not an all day event. I don’t know anything about SFA but read how they are trying to extend it by creating local branches. She sounds so selfish.

He has his porn voice..is he drunk? Is he using Pig's facial slimming App?

Skeet shooting - it's an Olympic sport - but in no way is she doing it correctly. She's a poser - just like in everything else.

she took up the sport this year?? Lol isn’t this the second time she’s gone? So I guess her new (well her only) sport is at this rate maybe 4 times a year. Much like their surfing life.

I’d say she wants respite every day because of slime. She said she’d be sooooo busy, too busy to cook this month because she’s going for her promotion. They couldn’t schedule that photo shoot for a month, the shooting clay pigeons was non negotiable because it was for vlog… If they vlogged it?

 

[MaidenX]

In what world is this a sport

Shooting is in the Olympics...

But I wouldn't call anything they do participating in a sport.. or P has any interests outside of food

I think he wanted to focus on job skills, life skills, etc. It didn't sound like anything scholastic. But, I don't know if they can use the grant just for independent living skills. Assa truly seems to think Abbie can have a job. I also believe he is pulling her out of JSA because Abbie was assessed and determined she could NOT be in their vocational training because really... this is far too advanced for Abbie.

I’m sure glad I’m me, and not them!

Jesus, how much MORE RESPITE do they need?? It would be different if they had not gone on vacations in years, never had a chance for a date night or lunch with their spouse, nights away at hockey games/concerts/camping trips/or selfish wrld events, but they are gone more often than they are home.

 

[RocketQueen]

P did a live on the way home from their shooting adventure, and of course went on and on about "dating your spouse".
They also talked about Abbie again. This is becoming a trend. I remember when Big P would get pissed and turn red if anyone even asked about Abbie during her lives, now shes using her for sales.
Oh how times have changed!

I suspect that's a combination of two things:

1. A hamfisted attempt at being "quirky and relatable" with some added chaos for their audience. It's an intentional performance to show things like the toilet paper, Asa lumbering around the pool, Priscilla flopped out on that raft, etc as a way of making the audience feel that these people are just like them. Most everyone is awkward and feels unhappy in their skin in some way; it feels good as a viewer to see someone "famous" being awkward or doing something dumb too. It makes them relatable. Influencers know this. They intentionally aim to strike a balance between flaunting wealth and still being a regular Joe. This sort of thing seems to be more common on Youtube than IG, and and the relatable awkwardness of Tiktok is a whole different beast, but it all boils down to the same thing. You want viewers to envy you(buy what you're selling) while making it feel like those viewers can also achieve the wealth or fame you're flaunting. You can't be too fancy about it because that alienates viewers.

2. Defense mechanism - denial. She's incredibly insecure about her appearance and how she comes across to people, like painfully so. It's agonizing in more ways than one for her to be not only that fat, but to have publicly lost & regained so much weight. Remember how much emphasis she puts on her hair, how for a long time she absolutely refused to ever be filmed in her PJs or how she had to be done up for the camera, how Asa admitted he had to carefully edit out her huffing and puffing (which he's absolutely having to do again, but can't get it all in favor of content). She cares deeply about how she looks to others. She can't present the image she wants to present whatsoever, so in acts of self-preservation
(and I don't mean physical self-preservation, but the much deeper preservation of self, psychologically speaking)
she escapes into a fantasy world where she really did lose 105 lbs, where she's simply chunky and confident about that, where she's a dainty Southern belle, an accomplished entrepreneur, a successful business owner, a great mother with perfect children and a handsome military husband, where she's everything she wants to be but can't actually reach. It's intense denial so she can pretend to feel good about herself, and many days she likely does feel good about herself, but the thing is that reality constantly lurks under the surface façade for her. Reality, as it always does, creeps in periodically and she's forced to painfully recognize it and it kills her inside. So she's then forced back into her fantasy world from point 1 above.

Think of it like the crazy conspiracy theorists holed up in Dallas waiting for JFK Jr and Sr to make their return. They're so deep in the bullshit they will not - they cannot - face reality. They've invested too much of themselves already.
Acknowledging shame like that is enough to cause pretty intense mental damage, enough so that the mind will do what it can to protect itself. It's similar to what Priscilla does; acknowledging shame would destroy the entire fantasy world she's created for herself and leave her with nothing.

What a sad, pathetic life they’ve built for themselves. No wonder they eat and drink like they do.

I find it so creepy so many of my the humpers love her fish bubbles sound. I just can't imagine commenting on a Facebook video about how much l love the noises a severely delayed teenager makes.

Exactly! I would LOVE to have been a fly on the wall at their last IEP meeting (I know it isn't called that, I think it is an IPP at JSA but same non-the-less). I totally get where you are coming from and it is a reason we handed back our ESA grant and put our boys back into public school. With some of my kid's medical conditions, it doesn't afford me time to look for homeschool groups or join them. Most of our groups, do group teaching and everyone has to volunteer and you have to come, even if your kid is out sick. It didn't work for us. Mine are now back in school and thriving by the day. I am so glad to hear that yours is too!!! It is awesome when they finally get on the right path...
Personally, I think Abbie definitely needs to leave JSA. I don't think she needs to go to homeschool. I think Asa needs to put his ear out, accept that she does have ID and find a school that can cater to her psychological and mental needs daily. This isn't going to be easy and yes, most will probably have a waitlist but Abbie would be in such a better place, where they aren't going to push Voc Rehab skills and can take that time with her daily. Also, Asa & Priscilla made a friendship of administration, they need that to stop. A&P need to be held accountable for educating her at home and not allowing her to sit and rock on a couch for hours..

I am so happy our kiddos are doing great!! He is certainly thriving, and I am too! I've learned that sometimes specialty schools just are not all that great for some kids, and with a good program at a public school-a kid can just soar past all expectations. I LOVE our school district, the teachers he has had both in home and in the classroom have been phenominal. His teacher this year has taken this kiddo so far. A&P have no idea how hard this is going to be on their fragile mental health, their stress level will be through the roof, teachers will quit or call off at a moments notice, etc. They are under the impression that they will have this nice and neat routine for next year and I'm here to say that No you won't. Is it August yet? I can't wait for this tit to go down. They don't have it in them to do this and I need to start hoarding all the white cheddar popcorn I can because this tit is gonna be good!

If cps needed to see anything else it’s definitely this! Trying to hire random people from the internet to babysit their nonverbal autistic teenager when they could watch their own kid! They got nothin else better to do! It’s not other people’s jobs to babysit when the parents could watch her themselves!
