That posture...her neck...man oh man. It seems the older she gets, the worse her issue with low muscle tone gets. The way she kind of flaps her legs when she walks, can't lift her arms all the way up, her weak looking core, her hands now it's like she just can't hold her own head up. Maybe that's why she lays down so often right in the middle of physical activities...maybe it all exhausts her. This is what the Speech lady mentioned...her other medical issues. I'd love to know what all is wrong with Miss Abbie.
I don’t want to diagnose Abbie because I don’t know her, but from what I’ve seen past and present videos... I’d say her biggest problem is she’s lazy.
This was also another reason A&P should have never forced her to be in the advanced class, her old classes also included PT.
Now she no longer is working on her mobility and A&P let her sit or lay down anytime and anyplace she pleases. They do no exercises with her. The most she gets is a walk. But A&P are lazy so what do we expect.
Also she goes to camp, I highly doubt she’s getting away with her game of sitting and laying down constantly there. I believe her buddy is moving her to do activities. And that’s what she needs is constant motivation till she understands she can’t be lazy. But if she can get away with it of course she’s going to.
We all saw at Disney they didn’t even make her walk there because they didn’t want the tantrums so they got her a wheelchair. I was a bit angry about that one, first Disney doesn’t always have enough wheelchairs to go around when it gets extremely busy and your child and that other boy are perfectly capable of walking they just don’t always want to. They need to start telling her to get up and stand there and start walking. They created this monster that thinks it’s a funny game now. Because look on Abbies face when she does it, it’s behavioral not physical.
They can correct this issue and help her before it’s too late but unfortunately like I said they are too lazy. And even Summer has become lazy since she’s moved in. Since they are in the pool I’d be moving her arms and legs but again that be too much for any of them. Even simple neck exercises would help but we won’t ever see it. And Abbie will pay the price. But like I said when they don’t even care about their own health why do we expect them to care about their daughters. After all Fathering Autism isn’t about Abbie or even making people aware it’s about making money. And they are going to ride that money train for as long as they possibly can.
