Fathering Autism #2 Selling autism, gluttonous lifestyle, and pyramid schemes

[Hotographer512]

Assa really looked like an idiot trying to talk to the floor guys about Autism, IMO.
He sat the camera on the kitchen island and set up the shot. He was ready to get that content!!
He tried not once but twice to get "it".
Finally he retreats to his computer where he sits and Google's translations, repeating them sounding like an uneducated redneck, IMO.
He was practicing, trying to get brave enough to converse that way with the guy!
It was a total no class move and further evidence of "anything for the vlog". IMO.
If he wants to spread awareness to people who do not speak english, then spend some of Abbie's money on an interpreter!
He's not spreading awareness about anything except his own arrogance, gluttony and ignorance, IMO.

A & P will do a vlog where they talk about respecting privacy and why the people pointing to the elephant in the room are horrible people. Their cult fans will cheer them on. And then we'll see more exploitative vlogs of Abbie and more information that could be used to find Abbie carelessly revealed.

I hate that 'TEEHEEHEE' nasally laugh that Summer does. It's how a toddler laughs.

She is best friend with a toddler so what can we expect?

Abi is going to be the size of a house with all the sweet treats she has. I don’t know why he has Brandi coming to the house as he obviously knows much better. He constantly interrupts when she is dealing with abi. He is so full of himself on tonight’s vlog .

So school is a babysitter? Got it.

They seem to run late a lot and use Abbie as an excuse. They could get up earlier and get her up earlier and give themselves time to get her ready. Instead they blame her for being slow or whatever. I wonder how they compare to other families at the school? If her walking in late is hard for other kids in the class? And if the fact that they sued the last school she was in and won puts her current school in a tough spot when asking them to comply?

I'm stocking up on popcorn... this is going to be interesting.

'The chickens are coming home to roost' and 'it will all come out in the wash' is rather fitting.

 

[Hotographer512]

Oh my!

Between the neglect in the early formative years (left in the back of a motorcycle repair shop with a 7 or 8 year old as a primary care giver 5 days a week) and the lack of engagement with her since - and now, it's a miracle that Abbie can even do the things she does. IMO.

Just watched yesterday’s vlog ! Asa made a big deal about the frigin laundry .. um wouldn’t she usually do laundry ! Maybe not she-she’s super lazy !!!! I just can’t with her preaching about being kind and if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say it at all . How about stop being liars !!!!’ Tell the truth that’s all anyone wants to see !!!!

 

[jadedandcaffeinated]

I'm willing to admit I'm reading into nothing here, but I get major "grooming for a threesome" vibes from P and A regarding Summer. Just the vibe I get bc every couple that's done it to me treated me so similarly. Weird vibes.

I am so sorry. I wish there was a way to show your reality without exploiting your kids. Because what you are going through is the reality. FA has them in a pretty house doing pretty things with multiple caregivers. They're living beyond their income and producing a sitcom that doesn't reflect the reality of autism.

Exactly!!

Just a small glimpse of our life. My husband drives over the road, as a truck driver (so he is gone 5-10 nights a week), with the standard 34 hours home, to reset his time and have “family time.” I homeschool some (we have had kids bounce in and out of schools for years, due to their disabilities and our state resources). I currently am homeschooling 2 of our kids, while 2 more kids are in a school (public charter).. I also am dealing with 3 of the kids being complex medical children, so they each have around 8-11 specialists, that require appointments every 3-6 months. I spent most of my time either at doctors, at the hospital, in the vehicle going to and from one of those or the school, therapist appointments or on the phone with any of these for issues with insurance, scheduling or medications. Then add in all the paperwork, meetings, etc, and balancing multiple respite care providers, their schedules, my kids schedules (making sure they use up the 30 hours a month respite we get, while not getting a break myself because they share some of the workers and we cannot get each one a worker and we can’t group our hours or care together and if they don’t use it, they loose those hours) and my husband’s work schedule (because Lord forbid if we can have a secondary vehicle without loosing some of the very small benefits we do receive), so I have to make myself available to run to and from his workplace, day or night, that is half an hour away from us...
All the while, cooking, cleaning and keeping 4 kids on the Autism Spectrum healthy and not killing themselves, each other or myself...
There is no time. When my husband gets home, it is basically “tag” your in because I check out.. I have to because I have one child with elopement issues and until my husband gets home, I have to make sure he doesn’t walk out the door, day or night (which yes, there are alarms on the doors and windows) but that doesn’t make it any easier to sleep...
So, yes, I am just a little testy.. I refuse to sell out my children to the entertainment industry though..

 

[Hotographer512]

When I watched it the first time, it sounded like she said "I do wanna eat." I replayed it at least 3 times. She doesn't usually make those noises

Maybe she is trying her best...almost a frantic attempt to get someone in that dysfunctional house (IMO) to pay attention to her!!
Even though man boobs denies it and it triggers him very badly, occasionally there are lots of comments saying Abbie is saying things.
Who knows.

And after all that chaos and BS with A&P not letting Brandi do her job, A says "If you're ABA therapy doesn't look like this, you should be concerned."

I do not understand why the ABA therapists of the world have not united and gone public to address his dumbassery on their profession.
Brandi, IMO, is too meek to stand up to him and he controls her after years of conditioning.

 

[tiredofbs]

I honestly think that their high life may dwindle in the near future. It's just a matter of time before their reputation catches up to them. All good things must come to an end.

 

[jadedandcaffeinated]

This is the video where he addresses Abbie being late for school.





It seems like either they are just unwilling to put in the effort it would take to get her back on a proper sleeping schedule or they are just THAT ignorant that they think "Well, it's just the autism. This is how it is." and refusing to look at anything else in her life that is contributing to her sleeping patterns.
It's also like he's trying to rationalize it to himself so that he doesn't feel guilty for not doing what needs to be done.

He'll do ANYTHING for his autistic daughter! No matter how hard it is! No matter how many people he has to educate! You know... as long as it doesn't interfere with dunkies, filming and sleeping in lol. I'm sure the staff love them showing up late then shoving a camera in their face so they have to fake laugh at his "jokes"

All talk and no action when it comes to actually taking her autism and education seriously. Make sure everyone knows how expensive the school is and the lengths you went to demand a proper education... and can't even get her there on time. Pathetic.

 

[jadedandcaffeinated]

Yes and don't ever mention a word about how you think Abbie says any word... They will quickly defend that Abbie is completely non-verbal and cannot make sounds... I really think she could almost make words and then they stopped speech therapy. Also, I never knew of a speech therapist that would ever suggest stopping therapy, in my whole life!! Speech therapy goes from how you eat, mouth motions, facial expressions to forming words. Even babies in NICU get speech therapy to learn to suck bottles.. Again, it goes back to the IDD world of them knowing she won't advance much either and if she did speak some words, those words are now gone because they aren't continuing the therapy and work that is involved...

Maybe they don't want her to learn to speak bc they don't want people hearing what she has to say about them

 

[PhartBlossom]

Does anyone get a vibe from Lauren like she is flirting with Asa?

 

[ChickenGeorge]

I looked up the Limelife makeup thing...it is SO a pyramid scheme!!

I agree about how they treat Abbie seems to be making her regress. They need to talk TO her, not about her...and stop laughing when she does something she should not do.

This waste...the food they threw away when she cleaned the fridge was unbelievable!

Coffee....OMG! They have a coffee pot, don't they? Why drive to a store to buy 5 $5 coffees at least twice a day? That's hundreds of dollars a week on coffee! Not to mention the sugar and calories in that stuff. no wonder they have weight issues.

This family is constantly stuffing their faces with high calorie, high fat, high sugar foods and the only one who is restricted is Abbie. If they would restrict themselves they way they do her....they would not be so obese.

The Limelife is really grim because you have to ask friends and relatives to buy the stuff from you. Many friendships are lost when you are hounded to buy stuff every time you see a Limelife or Avon seller who is you friend.

How do I DM you on here

I have tried to DM you but am blocked..

I will say, it does take a little bit of digging to find the exact information. A simple Google search isn't going to work but it doesn't take much...

Also, saying all this, PLEASE, anyone that does come across this information, please do NOT get in the "real" with this information.. I am not going to post it here... Do not seek out the Mom or child.. The child in question could be googled and seems to be living their best life. This child does not need to find out by strangers, that he/she has a father like Asa... I don't know what the child or the Mom knows but neither deserve it coming from a stranger..

 

[So so sad]

Why oh why did they let her sit in that cookie shop with bare feet? Not one of them tried to rectify that. So unsanitary.

 

[Stripe69]

Massive elephant in the room tonight. Also the comments were just a sickly love fest. I suppose he will ignore all the questions that have been asked and carry on counting his money.
Hope abi hadn’t had her fingers up her nose before touching those cookies
