I may be wrong here but to me using the IPad gets her results. Food, music, an action. Getting a spoon or fork is work.
EXACTLY....she will do anything for food. Its the one thing she knows she will get almost every time. They should use "no snacks" and "no breaks" SOMETIMES until she does what they ask of her. Like yelling, rocking. Flinging her arms, etc.

I think a combo of both. He doesnt film the "bad" stuff much anymore because then it becomes clear she hasnt progressed. And he was always anti-med, he never wanted to increase her dosage even though doses need to be adjusted as someone grows. He finally agreed to the med change a while back. Plus, hormones and puberty eliminate alot of that childlike energy and behavior.

He has said many times he has decided not to film her severe breakdowns. Thats why you only see the hood parts on the videos, even though he knows thats what the people want to see....the bad stuff.
Then; their vlog is a lie. So, the girl we see watering the plants and sitting quietly is the SAME girl who was out of control and ran in the street? That's selling is a false product. THen, this is not her behavior. They film her when she's tired.

I would also think his daughter’s mother (and possibly the daughter) must have seen the vlogs. That’s gotta be painful.

Even if she wasn't destructive, where does Anyone see a Princess? I see a dirty feet, dirty hair 15 year old who is rude and destructive.

How can they sleep at night, talking about Family and Love blah blah and, he has a daughter who may not have eaten that day!! What a rotten couple of cold hearted jerks.

Personally, I believe they simply dont show them anymore. Possibly why we seem to see less and less of Abbie and more about just other boring stuff. I think it's all part of A&P's plan to keep Abbie 'marketable'. They show some things...just enough...to whet those crazy franzies' appetites. Autism is kind of "the cool, okay" diagnosis to have nowadays.(sorry I dont know how else to say it but yall know what I mean) IDD is not so they gotta be real careful how they manipulate their audience.

Do the nurses knpoi w thia crap is from domeone who runs to the store 3 times a week, exposing herself to virus, doesn't keep her daughter clean, who helped with this useless packs, and travels all over ? She has no shame. I would bet my last dollar her phone number or some other form of ordering more are in there. Asa wrote her comment. She's not that bright.

I'm a little confused here.....so, was the big lady just a one night stand until she got pregnant with Isaiah and got ahold of Asa to tell him or was that the mother of the "other" kid?
Probably both were meant to be short term affairs. Even though they were separated, unless they are divorced (please correct me if I am wrong), it is still adultery. I wonder how he felt he would get away with it. And why did he come crawling back.

and she will just frantically push the buttons. Cereal, No Ab. Nature Valley bar, No Ab. Popcorn, No Ab. Ugh

Cucumber - Whenever I see messages you've written pop up, your cat avatar with its expression is who I imagine you to be on the other end: a typing cat.
Is Cucumber the cat's name IRL or is that just a username?

Priscilla lived in Guantanamo Bay. She pulled in from the Coast Guard. She got pregnant before he went back. And ignored all contact from her until his mother told him to call this girl back. So, he married her, then left again a year later. Poor Isaiah. You have to wonder if he (wrongly) feels responsible for that shit show.

Like Abbie, Nicky is clearly showing other symptoms than autism. It seems like his parents can handle his problems much better than Asa and
Priscilla.

I would LOVE for them to slap a big lawsuit against the Maass family. She is just as much his child as I and A. She needs to get them where they live. Money.

Its her behavior now. It makes it appear she has moved forward both in skill and behavior. And for all we know, maybe her behavior is not as bad as it was 3 years ago. She certainly hasnt damaged her room or anything else in the new place. The med's have to be helping that.

me too! hot mess!

That is my belief. Very heavily edited.

I think the other girl dumped him. And between the arrests there and the trouble he was getting in, he prob ran back to P simply because he knew she'd take him back. I also think his mother and father may have influenced him a bit. I am not crazy about P's parents, but Asa's mom and dad both seem like decent, down to earth people.

Or they are just leaving her to rock in the sofa and listen to music. Her meltdowns happened when demands were being made on her to do a chore or interact. If they are not making those demands, she would have fewer reasons to have meltdowns. (Which is actually worse in a way.)
