Fathering Autism #3 3 Kids, 2 Daily Dunkins, 1 Huge Exploitation

[Morningstar]

omg that's so fucking rude!!! The other parents are probably going to see, it's like they don't even care if people think they're rude

No doubt the other parents are being PARENTS. Not wanna be teen agers trying to live life through their kids. And why didn't they let the provided escorts walk Abby down the red carpet? STOP STEALING ABBY'S SPECIAL MOMENTS!! Summer and Becca need to know when to back off. Maybe she wouldn't enter without them and if that was the case fine. But if she could have and would have walked with an escort she wouldn't have had to be squeezed between them. And restraining her to get her nails done?! Can we say Control Freak behavior? You could have done clear polish and tiny stickers at home with no drama. Heck if she didn't want them done you could have..let's see here...umm..maybe..NOT FORCED HER TO! Some things ain't rocket science folks.

Hey guys I think A&P said that the lawsuit money for Abbie’s School has actually run out. They mentioned it a lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng time ago.

I was wondering this same thing.. I would actually be curious if they didn't use it to purchase the house and "all the things"... It makes me disgusted that they don't think of her future more!! Of course, they never have, since she was around 2 years old... I am sorry but I about kill myself to make sure my children as a independent as possible.. I have had them NOT qualify for certain services because we got them to the point of functioning at a very high level.. I didn't want them to HAVE to have caregivers and I wanted them to succeed but when I seen the younger videos and see my youngest, they were about on that same level and you could about tell, where they just didn't work with her and give her that foundation she needed, a long time ago and it is now showing...

Poor Abbie looked terrified at the prom. She spent most of the time looking up and watching the lights nervously, even with the editing. Asa has mentioned before that she looks up when she's nervous; she did it at the hockey game and also on that boat during the cruise where she had the diaper blow-out. I bet they didn't even stay very long. I'm guessing a few minutes on the dance floor til Abbie started melting down, and then a few minutes on the couch in the sensory room.

I am glad they at least explained a little about the origins of the event and whatnot. Hey Maass family, how about your sponsor some kids to go next year? Kids who actually want to be there? Actual "nobodies" without YT channels??

 

[uncannyvalley]

I don't understand why they're all "omg I'm gonna cry again" at Abbie in her prom dress. She has no idea where she's going or why she's going there. She doesn't want to wear a pretty dress and get hair and makeup done. She doesn't have a date or friends or anybody else there, besides her minders. They're acting like it's some big milestone for her, Abbie the "typical teen," but it's anything but! It's just content for dollars.

and please remember the child's privacy and protection is so, so important.

A couple more thread suggestions:

Gastric Bypass Failure, Non Child Support Mailer.
Pig and Ass: ain't got no class.

There was an excellent reply to the snarky comment. View attachment 80882

will love to see what they have to say to that.

Interesting other people are questioning the intention of things for views and content also

I’m sorry but I’m not buying that Nanny left on her own. She built a relationship with Abbie. Seems to be the only one interested in her actual well being besides Brandy. I do believe she has another kid to care for but I’m sure a few hours of her time to see Abbie wouldn’t have been that big of a deal for her.

I believe CN was forced out, probably because she started to see through the cracks. A&P seem to groom S & B and smother them with gifts and praise all the time. It's so so weird. If my kid was taken in by a family like that I'd be asking questions.

Honestly this is like amazing ! I can’t get enough of this thread !! Lol. perhaps that’s why Assa couldn’t ever get a job ? Too much trouble with the law perhaps ? He plays himself off like this great genuine guy who just wants to spread awareness about Autism ! He’s a phony!

He has stated before that he didn't work well for others. I think he has anger issues that he tries to cover up in the vlogs.

I’m holding out hope that Isaiah will find a life of his own in college that has nothing to do with his sister. He is accomplished and has his own interests and hobbies — I think he could go far in life if he can break free of his family.

 

[Lumoss]

Jesus imagine being a young woman looking at prom dresses and then seeing a parade of people and a man recording the store in the women section, do these people not think

also you can really see the disconnect with P and her daughter, even summer was crying, p wasn't

 

[Piggylips]

Maybe will be the next one with a suspended license. Once again instead of saying I was totally wrong, they get defensive and excuses. Like the woman said it only takes 3 seconds. Brain dead just like the cult following.

New thread - lies lies and more lies

Thank you for your input here! What are your thoughts on Abbie's intellectual disability? It seems that while many autistic people have above-average intelligence and normal everyday functioning, many like Abbie also have diagnosed IDD. You've said in another post you're upset because she doesn't get any autonomy. Are there specific things you had in mind here considering she has the mental capacity of a toddler? I am genuinely curious.

Autistic people's IQs vary really as not every autistic person is the same. I kind of get your point about IDD here. I'd say she does have some potential in terms of learning things but I feel that her parents are not really stretching her enough in terms of things like communicating her needs and feelings.
In terms of spoken language, I feel she understands more than her family think they do and she gets frustrated and angry when they talk about her as though she's not there and she is within earshot of them.
When it comes to the autonomy, I was referring to recent vlogs where she chose a snack but her mum said she had to pick something else. It seems like she's not allowed to give her own opinions or express her true feelings.

I can also tell she doesn't enjoy being filmed either because she always looks sad in the vlogs and she tends to walk away a lot to escape from the camera. She gets no privacy at all which makes me angry even more. I also worry about her getting PTSD from all the ABA therapy as she clearly does not enjoy that either.

Just seen an insta story, he has the camera right in Abby's face while she is sleeping, trying to wake her telling her she needs to wake up for disney. For a girl that gets overwhelmed by lots of people why the hell would you take her to Disney? Get the camera out of her face and let her sleep.

From what I’ve read, i believe at this event (Night to Shine), all the attendees are crowned king and/or queen.

Yes, my daughter went tonight and everyone was crowned king/queen..

My thoughts on today’s blog that blue dress is hideous so frumpy I cannot believe that is what they chose for her. The shorter green dress looked absolutely stunning and very age-appropriate she looks like she is wearing someone’s curtains in that blue frock. Must have been on super clearance shame on all of them for making her wear that out in public. Also when Priscilla asked her if she liked it she clearly said no! Then someone else told her she is going to look beautiful in it and she said no. Not one single brain between the four of them choosing that dress for her. So so sad.

Couldn't agree more. I liked the turquoise one on her better as it suited her more. The look on her face said it all when it came to the dark blue dress. And I don't think she was comfortable with having 4 people around her when buying her dress and she seemed to be a little overwhelmed. I wouldn't want 4 people around me when trying on dresses, I would have just had either my mum or friend with me and I would at least have some privacy, which she is sadly not getting. She could have just gone with her mum and that would have made things a whole lot easier.
And another thing is, why doesn't she have her IPad with her to help her communicate? They could have set up options for her where she presses 'I like it' if she likes the dress or 'I don't like it' if she doesn't like it. It's not rocket science. Poor girl

When's the last time she gave a weight update? I GUARANTEE she's gained.

Right at the beginning of the New Year. 85.6lbs lost. Her one year mark is coming up. That’s where her surgeon wants her to have lost at least 100lbs. Just like the third child, I doubt we will ever hear of weight loss again. Just like the daily walks, etc. etc.

I feel for the kids they dragged through Disney. I hate it there. Too much noise, too many people, just too much everything. I can manage maybe an hour in Downtown Disney and after that I'm exhausted. They had the kids there for 11 hours. Eleven hours!

 

[Monkey1651]

Not a single child looks happy. Every one of them is being restrained. Why push them for this. Take them somewhere without thousands of people that isn’t going to charge hundreds of dollars for the family to go to. Ugh. Why do they not think of these kids?

 

[jadedandcaffeinated]

They haven't done anything live in a while. I would spend money to make a post that they would see. And he only controls the comments made to his page -- even then he misses some. He's definitely uncomfortable. That's a start.

Someone needs to make a donation on his live and put "To help with your child support" in the tip note lmao
