Autism is a neurological disorder like adhd or dyslexia. Real autism is a horrible condition where children bang their heads due to the torment of it, can’t talk and need lifelong care.
If it doesn’t effect your ability to care for yourself, and learn etc then it’s not worth a diagnosis.

That's not accurate in the slighest, you even acknowledge that in your first bit about a neurological disorder like ADHD and dyslexia. Yes that's correct, hence why it's in with the neurdiversity group. But an autistic person who bags their head and can't talk is not worthless. Also not all people like that need lifelong care. Someone who bangs their head is either doing it due to pain, trauma, distress or sensory needs. In which case the point of suffering or distress/trauma etc needs to be found and the person's needs need to be met. And if it's sensory, a safer alternative needs to be found.
And for not being able to talk, it's only society which proclaims that talking with mouth words is the "best" way to communicate, or "only" way to do so. Yet this is not true either, as we have iPads, picture cards, sign language, etc.

What an absolute crock of shite, so because my child doesn't bang his head he isnt autistic? Autism is a spectrum so can present with mild traits or really strong traits. The benefit of a diagnosis is actually having appropriate support

Yes this!

I was hoping someone would start a thread on here for her. I've watched her since her first "Tubal Reversal Mom" video days. I love her but some of her choices and beliefs are bizarre. And I totally agree about genetics. Fathering Autism's channel name always amused me... fathering genetic mutations.

After the 15mo Penelope video, I went back and watched some of her old updates/autism sign videos. Drives me crazy how much she "forgets" about child development. Lonnie wanted Nelly tested at birth like Liam, but Stephanie disagreed. I wonder if that's part of her current freak-out.

I can't imagine their lives in ten years! Lex's behavioral issues and violent meltdowns will not be easy to control when he's Lonnie Jr's size. And the two teens will hopefully be out of the house so the parents will be completely outnumbered. What if one of the little ones ends up having Abby-level needs?

People's needs change over time as they grow and develop so if the parents start working with them now (and don't sit on their phones all day like A&P lol!) then the kid should still develop ok Maybe a bit "slower", but most milestones are often based on NT people anyways
Also I believe that these meltdowns might be due to lack of communication, I haven't watched for a while, I stopped a long time ago, but does he have something to communicate with, eg pictures or an iPad? And is he ok sensory wise? These things should hopefully be thought about too.

So Nellie has severe autism...what a surprise. That family has some really fucked up genetics to produce 4 out of 6 severely autistic kids

Being autistic is "fucked up". Hmm, eugenics much??

So Lex now has heart issues. Seriously, this family is one big genetic mess. Lonnie is quitting his job again, because Stephanie can't cope with all the therapies and appointments. Seriously, why the duck do people like these idiots have SIX kids?!

 

[HeyGuyth]

If i'm being entirely honest, the only reason Lex's heart issues weren't discovered is due to neglect. Not neceassrily deliberate, but because there are so many children with so many needs, this sort of thing can happen. This is why i'm not a fan of large families- it's impossible to adequately care for six children like you would just one or two. Impossible.

I wish Steph would give the camera some space. Whenever she does a video by herself she is RIGHT in the camera, I practically can feel her breathing on me.

Happy March!

Steph vlogged today that she can't take being a youtuber anymore, then whined on and on about negative comments etc. Then said she will still be keeping both channels just uploading less often and when she feels like it. It's the realist I've ever seen her tbh.

 

[perduthecat]

I wonder if with the Dad Challenge Podcast videos & Alyson Stoner's Toddler to Trainwreck video is changing public opinion on family vloggers and Stephenie is beginning to realize it. I think a lot of people are beginning to recognize and comment on how fucked up it is that she has her three younger kids lives and medical histories all over the internet. I'm glad she's making the change though, it takes a lot of self awareness to make that choice and it's probably going to be better for her family

I do think it is down to the dad challenge podcast and the turn in the tide against family vloggers. Deep down she is decent and I'm glad she is changing things. It's brave

This chick is whacked. Stephanie now has a tiktok stating she is a psychic empath witch and Lonnie is a healer who uses crystals. She supposedly Astral projects. Its thecelticsbrew on tiktok and the website where they scam people and sell witchy stuff is thecelticsbrew.com. Apparently this is why she gave another I'm leaving YouTube speech

Shes a psychic empath witch who Astral projects dontcha know. Must be more $$$ in witchiness than autism now.

 

[Silverlady]

She's just been in the national newspapers in the UK !!!! as a witch on Tik Tok? to follow! She's as mad as a box of frogs

 

[focusdochas]

I have noticed she’s back uploading regularly enough on YouTube too

 

[HeyGuyth]

She quit youtube for a bit once she realised she could scam people by pretending to be a witch and a psychic and giving tarot readings. Most of the people buying her psychic readings are leghumpers (vulnerable, disabled, desperate people). Now she probably needs the extra money for the new house they are building so is back to posting on Youtube. She's a scamming, lying witch.

 

[ChristieO960]

Omg, I agree HeyGuyth!!!! Stephanie exposes her children and their autisim so that She can get attention and sympathy. And she goes further by scamming her own fans. Pretending to be a witch and empath and stuff. Ugh. She's a scammer, liar, manipulator, and a whiny brat!! What a witch!

 

[knows nothing]

Hi new to all this anyway am glad am not the only one who can see through all this crap with our landing crew…it’s mind boggling those kids are her cash cows ohhh I’ve a lot to say

 

[knows nothing]

I take it this is not a very active site on the our landing crew either ? Shame

 

[deftones34]

I used to watch this family and then Stephanie started getting too annoying for me. She makes money as a witch now? What the hell?

 

[HeyGuyth]

5 out of her 6 kids have some sort of medical issue and/or autism. They are one big genetic duck up of a family. The Dad gives me the creeps too. He's so bleeping odd.

I also wonder how the duck they have so much money to buy land in cash and pay contractors/architects to build them a new house. Where the duck is all this money coming from?! I do wonder if she had an inheritance from her grandmother who died a few years ago. I believe she's also doing tarot readings on etsy and ripping people off there. Why can't these idiots just get real jobs instead of exploiting their disabled kids and their weird fans who pay for tarot readings.

She must be doing a lot of tarot card readings and charging a lot for them or something.

Traits of autism can be genetic. Certain genetic disorders show up with autism like Pradas. Autism is a neurological disorder like adhd or dyslexia. The reason why so many kids have trouble with it is because doctors don’t do enough investigation.
The reason why Noah is so troubled by his autism is due to his very poor diet and being fed loads of meds not suitable for his age. Look at his pupils, the poor guy looks high as a kite.
Having said all that Autism is diagnosed way too much and most children I meet with it have a quirky personality like heir parents NOT autism. Real autism is a horrible condition where children bang their heads due to the torment of it, can’t talk and need lifelong care.
If it doesn’t effect your ability to care for yourself, and learn etc then it’s not worth a diagnosis.

You seriously need to educate yourself about autism. I was just reading this thread and wasn't planning to comment, but your attitude and knowledge of autism is way off the mark. Autism is a spectrum- that's why it's called autism spectrum disorder. It is worth a diagnosis no matter what side of the spectrum you are on for numerous reasons. You have absolutely no place telling anyone whether or not they are worthy of a diagnosis or whether a diagnosis is worth it, even on a forum like this.

 

[HeyGuyth]

She has made a video about her husband Lonnie and his personality disorder. Apparently he has been diagnosed with antisocial, narcissistic and histrionic personality disorder. He has always creeped me out honestly, I knew something was off with him.

Stephanie keeps saying "he has never cheated". I mean, how does she know? She says in the vlog that his very disturbing behaviour prompted the evaluation. What kind of very disturbing behaviour was this? Animal abuse? She has 6 kids and didn't want to say what this disturbing behaviour was, but I wonder if any of them in that house, including any pets are safe?! I bet he has been abusive in some form to Stephanie/the kids/pets. You don't get diagnosed with THREE such serious personality disorders without being a danger to others in some way. He sounds pretty toxic and dangerous if what Stephanie is saying is true. She seems more concerned with protecting him in the vlog. Stephanie has always come across as very naïve and lacking in boundaries (remember that Ashley chick she had as a friend?!). I feel like she is the type to turn a blind eye anyway.

It's all very concerning since she won't say what these very disturbing behaviours are. One can only speculate that it involves harming or thinking abut harming others/animals with those personality disorders.

Very concerning considering she has 6 children, 4 of which have significant disabilities.

 

[pinkbubblegum]

I haven't watched the video about Lonnie's disturbing behaviour yet. I was hoping this thread would be resparked because there are so many things in recent vlogs to discuss especially her jumping to the conclusion she has MS even though her doctor seemed to make it very clear that it was something they were ruling out. I'm yet to watch today's vlog about Noah's wheelchair and was hoping someone with knowledge about low tone would pipe in about it. I wonder what the disturbing behaviour is. Will chime in again once I've watched the videos.
