  • The dad just continues daily life like this is all normal. I thought it was funny.

  • @MrSaturdayNightSpecL

    This is actually her step father and he is very tolerant and extremely laid back. This is nothing new and he realized long ago there's no sense in stressing over somthing that will eventually come to an end when it's all played out. Me...I get tense...bothered, not so much for myself but for my daughter, I dislike for her to become this frustrated, I worry about her health and well being. Thank you for commenting :)

  • It must be really hard to live with a child with Autism

    but I am a Aspie and I break stuff when I am angry

    can't be as bad as Aspie tantrums!! But it is sad.

  • @IndigoCat17 Me too. But when im angry i dont break stuff.

  • excuse me..but i wouldn't want someone following me around with a camera like that..it would annoy me

  • @kerry53able ~~~I imagine it would annoy most of us. However, it's not something we make a habit of. The main reason for this was to document the intensity of her frustration during "melt downs" in order to promote understanding, awareness & to assist with creating redirectional prompts & intervention to aid her in de-escalating.

    I've witnessed these episodes for many years with my daughter. Her behavior was no more intense than "usual" despite being video taped. Are you familiar with autism?

  • @mhinasebille - i have only heard of the term autism..never dealt with it tho. I wasn't trying to be offensive by the comment i made. I felt bad for the child was all..i understand you are trying to show others what this is like. I am watching the videos to get a better understanding of it.

  • @kerry53able Thank you for your interest. Autism, Autism Spectrum Disorders, Pervasive Developement Disorders, are all specturm disorders which indicates the effects can range from very mild to excessively severe. Most videos will be limited or "biased". It's best to gather some information from reputable sources in order to become familiar with autism, then watch videos. Your interest is admirable as is your concern for my daughter's comfort. Please, know, she is LOVED GREATLY & is a BLESSING!

  • @mhinasebille -i understand you love your child very much..no doubt there. I deal with ptsd myself..its not autism..but its another disorder.

  • @kerry53able ~ Again, thank you. I would be impossible for me to fully express the love I have for my daughter, she is a treasure. I'm sorry you deal with PTSD, I understand the difficulty of that disorder. Is this recent in onset or have you been effected by it for some time? Our world holds a great deal of suffering, sadly. Many endure trials daily that are wearying. All one need do is open their eyes & hearts and look around to realize that "There but for the grace of God, go I"~

  • @mhinasebille - I have been affected by PTSD 50 years at least.

    I just found out tho what it is. I am glad for parents who do love their children-one of mine didn't.

  • I believe when there's a problem, it's good to know what the difficulty is & the cause or source if possible. That allows for accurate & hopefully effective treatment, recovery & healing. I'm glad you've found out after so many years. You must have had a difficult childhood, I'm sincerely sorry & hope this hasn't negated your ability to have joy & love in your life as an adult.

  • @mhinasebille - parents like you love and adore their children and will do anything for them..one of my parents..abused me horrifically as a child. I am thankful to you and other parents like yourself who love and adore their children-i commend you greatly for that.

  • @kerry53able ~ There is much human suffering in the world from many sources with a multitude of reasons &/or excuses. Inhumane treatment & abuse is one of the greatest atrocities imaginable. My mind simply can't fathom nor condone it although I realize there must be some deep disturbances within those who do inflict abuse upon others. I pray you've found a source of peace, comfort & the ability to overcome. I know no other way but to love my children & others. I'm an avid humanitarian. :)

  • Comment removed

  • @dopefloat4~I'm uncertain who you're speaking to but...it is hard. Very few people who are familiar with autism & related disorders would dare to say otherwise. I am the mother of a 25 year old autistic daughter & 23 yr.old son with Asperger's Syndrome. Verbally suggesting someone take a needed time out wouldn't constitute abuse but many other things do.

    You seem to have some deep emotions here, if you're the mother of the person you're speaking of, I hope you have outside assistance to aid.

  • shes so cute i like at the first part she starts playing with her hair lol the dad was like what happen anyone love the video

  • the dad was like what happen shes a cute kid

  • I'm autistic and I know how that is. People around me just do NOT get it that changing my desk or deciding to take me out without three days of warning is asking for me to be a nightmare. Nobody understand that I CAN NOT HELP IT other than to AVOID the causes of meltdowns.

  • I certainly understand your difficulties in having things changed or not being provided adequate notice for outings. No, you can't help it & efforts should be made to assist you in avoiding meltdowns. My daughter is much the same only she is non-verbal in her communication and is low functioning. Thank you for your kind comment. I wish you all the best and many blessings. ~ :)

  • I have son, who they say is high functioning, but behavioral wise, he is middle of the road, with lots of stimming and aggressive behaviors.

  • Our daughter is very similar to your daughter. She is 11 with low functioning autism. Nonverbal and still in diapers. Just like you we must second guess all her needs and try to keep a schedule. Melt downs still happen. It is somewhat refreshing to see another teen girl on the low functioning spectrum. Mostly boys and high functioning. (speech and socialization that is). God Bless.

  • hey hun this is the same as in my house also, my daughter is autistic and gets upset over the smallest things and it goes on forever bless her until she calms herself down

  • Hey, mhinasebille, It's me, Lindylovsbatty, but

    I've changed my user name now. So NOW it's

    lindyloulou. Thanks!

  • What was that sound in the background?

  • What did she say when she started walking away from you?

  • What is she upset about? Geez.

  • With autism there doesn't have to be a reason for becoming upset. It's really difficult to understand why she becomes upset since she is mainly non-verbal. We do our best to keep her environment and schedule stable and structured and yet, life has a way of stepping in and changes do occur. Our entire family does their best to accept and understand. She is very well loved!

  • You're right. I've seen and heard about various other people like your daughter. Parents and extended relatives do THEIR best to accept and understand them too, and I appreciate that.

    I am on the spectrum, but I am quite "verbal", obviously. But I have issues about environment and schedule changes, and I try my best to adjust.
