He reminds me of me at that age. I knew all the presidents too. When you guys were asking him "who was the ##th president, he actually beat me to the 31st one.

Autistic? What specifically does he have? Asperger's syndrome? That would be my guess (I have that btw). I suppose he knows other things like the planets maybe?

[TwilightLink37]

u shud make a new vid where he names all 44presidents! i hav AS and i can memorize the last 8 and im canadian :D

[TwilightLink37]

since obama is now president, u shud make an updated vid where he names all 44! this is amazing! :D

He has Autism. He's swaying. If you watch the OTHER video, he does it right into the camera.

[liloboy911808]

Wow!! I'm in my 20's and don't even know it. Great job kid!

[locutusofborg278]

I actually have Asperger's, and I memorized the Presidents when I was 7, and that was actually used for the basis of my diagnosis.

[DeadRaymanWalking]

Impressive! I remember when I was younger I could remember most presidents.

[charliesmomuk]

I have an autistic son too.. his has memorized thousands of TV production statistics because that's his obsession... he is also obsessed with Dr Who and can tell you every date of every episode ever made

Its lovely to see another child so similar...:)

[johnbourbon]

[live4clarinets]

[tarynactress]

Thank you so much. Soooooooooooo many people think that he is cheating... instead of "stimming". GOD people can be so mean!!!

He's very amazing.

[inyunaruto365]

Wow! He's smart!!

[racham1]

[calicatt2000]

Hi, I would just like to tell you how inspiring your video was to me. I have a 5 year old son in pre-k with Asperger's and he has had problems from the start with the school system here. They tend to be really negative with him, so he's not really infatuated with learning yet. I am going to try homeschooling next year to see if that helps. It was just nice to see such a positive experience from learning that your son has obviously had.

[tarynactress]

You are such a wonderful parent and I wish you ALL THE BEST! Much love and hope, Taryn!

[mophergole]

thats AWESOME! i know all of their last names in order, but not their fist ones too..

[tarynactress]

YOU ROCK!!!

[QCflame1996]

i COULD NEVER DO THAT!! TYLER IS SOOOOO SWEET!!

[JessfaceProductions]

You are an amazing parent.

Tyler is very adorable...so smart.

You must be proud. :]

[elanajoy09]

He is adorable! I worked at a camp and there was a boy there who was autistic! He was absolutely amazing. These children are such special gifts to the world!! In many ways you are quite a lucky woman! ♥

[pnhs13]

that is amazing

[SmileDanceALot]

WOW!  I could never do this!

[Modimodifilms]

i used to be able to do that wen i was a kid..... but im not autitisic.... that kid rox

[tarynactress]

thank you tons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tarynactress]

Hello all! I just want you to understand that Tyler is NOT cheating when he looks away. He has Autism. It's called "stimming", it helps him learn/share when he does that. I'll post another video of him listing them off and try to get him to look in the camera (but that will be hard). Thanks so much! Take care all!

[OzzieKezzie]

If there is a Cutest Kid on You Tube Award then this kid gets my vote - well done sweet boy - and love to your mum too!!! :)

[nfitz92691]

did you notice that when she said " a big hand" as clapping, he just stuck his hand out. then she had to say "round of applause" to make him clap. autistic children. :)

[tarynactress]

That "she" was me. His mommy. LOL! I love Autistic children!!!

[HappyPersonLovingIt]

You are such an AMAZING parent! Bless you!

[cannonballsax]

[Nemesis7474]

you have a very talented son, with a very special gift

[tarynactress]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[immacjones]

Very impressive

[Tokishedo]

thats what autistic people do

[meanmustard1982]

I wanted to respond to your comment Tokishedo. Not all autistic people can do what Tyler did. Not all children who fall under the Autistic Spectrum are verbally communicable.

[Tokishedo]

no i was responding to the person who commented that he was reading them off the floor. I was simple pointing out that autistic people tend to not give you eye contact and fiddle with their hands.

[MadameMalaise]

Congratulations Tyler! I am really impressed!

How old are you? ^_^

[tarynactress]

Tyler is 9

[kuroasai]

aw that was so cool ^^ ell yeah he looks like an autist he cant be liek..just staring to the camera he has to be like bouncing XD

[k83001]

dont be so nasty. He's autistic, so he's not acting at all.

[tarynactress]

thank you for that! :-)

[Ragingmaja]

yes i know it just looks like it :o\

[Parisa1112]
