  • I really don't understand all the critics. There wasn't any danger to the child and he wasn't scared. More like "Oh I'm stuck ... Well doesn't matter, I just keep spitting" xD really cute!

  • My god how horrible. Laughing because his head was stuck? You can tell how distressed he was & you were laughing at him. How about re-directing him immediately when he spits? How about being educated, patient & kind? I have an autistic son. I learned ABA to work with him & he is my life. This video is just upsetting on so many levels..........

  • Dont call him retarded u fucking asshole

  • some of these comments are coming from ignorant people...my 3 yr old was diagnosed with autism over a year ago and he has the same behavior with spitting and sometimes when they do soething like that you have to find the humor in it to keep sain throughout the day..having a child on the spectrum is very hard at times and what ever you need to do to get through the day wether it is making a video of your child to make them happy or if it is laughing at something no one elese gets so be it...

  • Your older son's idea about saran wrap is a good idea.

  • I think it is great that you found a way to help him calm down wherever you are by making this video accessible- if that is something that helps him cope when he is stressed, then putting it on youtube was a great idea. Glad to hear he has stopped the spitting. :)

  • @vikings2spam What makes a good parent? Did you take a special class to be a better parent? If so, what's the number lol? And if you have been working with autism for 15 years then prove it :)

  • Not the best parenting here. You redirect an autistic child you don't repeat yourself over and over. Makes me wonder if this kid actually belongs on the spectrum I saw no behaviors that seemed to fit. I'm raising two autistic children and have worked with the autism community for over 15 years.

  • i was digoinse with prader-willi syndrome wich is on chronsone 15 like autism and since its so close on the genes and chromoses we have simalr characteristics and differneces to

  • Life can be difficult! Check out whatisautisminchildren.

  • I am 12 and I have 5 siblings And they both got autism Matthew is 2 and Saiden is 4 I am 12 and it is hard for me to live with 2 autistic brothers can anyone give me some advice????????

  • @JMDMBM I have aspergers and so does my teenager so what is rude to you, isn't to us. If you would've read the info, you would see that this video isn't meant for u!

  • Could you be any more rude to him?

  • AND JUST SO EVERYONE KNOWS. LUCA HAS STOPPED SPITTING. TA DAAA! EVERYBODY WASN'T SO PISSED WHEN THE BEAVER GOT HIS HEAD STUCK :p IT HAPPENS

  • @joleenlove OMG my son stopped spitting 3 months ago but I still have milk stains all over my walls lol! These kids are so funny sometimes thanks for sharing these videos do help others even if some parents don't agree thanks!

  • LOL ladies! did you not notice everytime you guys say stop spitting he spits? lol all he hears is spitting...he is like OK PT PT PT lol

    dont tell him what NOT to do tell him what to do ;) worked great for my ASD son Tommy used to spit too...I would make him wipe his mouth with a tissue..."oh your mouth is too wet again? here we go better dry it"...he stopped pretty quick lol

  • WTF. that's no way to treat a kid.... getting his head stuck in between...

  • @juiciijai u r right lol I'm a 37yo Asperger mother with an Asperger teenager and an autistic son. My 70yo father has autism but we can't afford ins so will u pay of our psychiatric attending? Hahahaha peace

  • @joleenlove wow i feel sorry for your family... do u all have to wear helmets???

  • herein lies the problem... the ignorant, uneducated parent's who would have the audacity to give a child a choice to cease or continue something... you and everyone there with you need psychiatric attending to... god bless the child who has to be raised by parent's and grandparent's like you...

  • @JuiciiJai Wow you're another idiot. You wouldn't be able to handle an autisic son. They get worse with age and you're the one who needs to study it. It's not like he's a normal little boy, He's Autisic. There are parents who would smack and hit autisic kids because they can't handle it. These parents are doing fine. You on the other handle don't have it in you to understand. Get a life.

  • @UtubeDuDeDuh Not true..my nephew use to spit on the floor and spit on people at times. you know what my mom did? smack the shit out of his mouth after he didnt stop when we told him to. you dont give a kid the option to stop, you tell him to and if he doesnt you discipline. even if that does mean having to smack him. im not saying beat the shit out of him, just hard enough to get the message across. i bet he'll think twice next time he spits again.

  • @AwesomeAsian96 oh I completely agree, we were just having fun on this vid!! Luca's dad is the softy and needs to man up and use that man voice :(

  • My cousin has autism and whenever he does something that he's not suppose to my aunt disciplines him like any other kid. Just because he has Autism doesnt mean that he should be treated any different than how you would treat other children.

  • @LeePutnam1 I have an 18 year old that's just as much of an ass clown as you but he turned out ok. I think Children's Mercy is who you meant to comment on...they diagnosed him. @420ladyblaze you're name is just awesome and you say "laughing" cthu

  • The more attention you bring to the spitting the more he is going to do it.

    Also laughing is reinforcing the behavior as well.

  • lol this was cute, the end reminded me of me and my sister lol i always try to hug her and give her love but she always pushes me away. love her though =]

  • There is a system that worked for 1000's of years. It is called discipline. I know it is hard to believe but for many years parents disciplined their children. These children all grew up normal. You better believe I would test my mother just to see how far I could push her because we could. I can guarantee you when my dad came home you would never find me spitting. This is simply a spoiled mother with a beautiful but very spoiled child blaming some generic disease. Oh Boyyyy..

  • So you would ask y I filmed it.. der

  • y did you film it?

  • Just so you know @aljodewi , Luca loves watching himself. I started this channel just so he could watch himself from anywhere becuz I am such a good parent. You don't have to watch them :)

  • thats just sad that that child has such stupid parents

    autistic children are truely geniuses but need help with that and you dont just take the camera and put this vid on youtube because in my opionion you are making fun of him

  • pt2 and when we took his pillow away he clawed at his face...its scary hes not even 2 yet he will be 2 in feb.... all i keep thinking is how will he be when hes 5

  • if you figure out any help with things like this please let me know! my son doesnt really spit but hes been trying to hurt himself.... hes been sitting up in bed and smacking his face off the crib " its a convertable crib and we now have it like a toddler bed" at night if he doesnt want to sleep he tends to lap himself....all we can do is cross our fingers that he wont do it again and stop him " when we catch him.....every night we find him with his pillow on his face so we took it away and

  • There's a system of training and communication called Son-Rise and another called ABA. These are two totally different approaches (for different styles of autism).

    ABA is time intensive but can work wonders in the short term.

    Please look into it. I could have stopped you little boy in 15 minutes of ABA

  • hey is sooo cute

  • I love all the back seat "I know how to raise a kid! Autistic or not, I could solve your parenting problem! Easy!!"

    Just try raising an autistic child lol... you wouldn't last an hour.

  • Fun Parents :)

  • jesus christ u lady need to stop posting ure kids personal life on the fucking internet. what kind of parents do we have today???

  • @yarfness69

    she's trying to help her son the easiest way possible for both of them by getting feedback from other parents of kids with autism. what kind of YOUTUBERS do we have today?

  • @TMBLyrics hmmm you think she could do that by going to classes/ professionals, not going viral. THATS whats wrong with YOUTUBERS today, honey.

  • @yarfness69

    i'd like to see you try to afford classes/professionals while trying to get in-home/different building therapists AND try to chase your kid around all day AND try to avoid meltdowns, "honey".

  • @TMBLyrics watch me bitch

  • haha ...he go his head out by his own

  • Don't ask him, TELL HIM!

  • Docs have already thought that it is possible that me (the mom) and my other son may have Aspergers.

  • Comment removed

  • This kid is NOT autistic!!! The person video taping this is tho.

  • @MrSoldierperson hes probalbly been diagnosed ... learn the facts ! my brothers autistic ... he was just like that at that age ...

  • @MrSoldierperson Wow you made a diagnosis from a 2 minute long video? It takes most specialists months if not years to diagnose a child as autistic or not, you could be making millions if you can do it that fast!

    PS - Watch the childs repetive flapping arm movements. Do you even know anything about autism? :-/

  • LOL his head is stuck XD

  • why are you asking a CHILD what he want to do. you're the parent, you tell them to stop. you're giving him all the control and one day he's gonna be bigger than you and he's defiantly won't listen to you. be the parent.

  • I think your behavior as a parent is more the problem sry, im not trying to be rude, maybe you need more in home support, have u taken any classes, on behavior interventions? please dont yell or laugh at him its demeaning:(

  • Autism is very hard, as long as you never respond with anger, that's what is more important because they are especially fragile to emotional dysfunction in the family. He got his head stuck in the bars and continued to spit so I would have said the same thing. Autism temper tantrums of any sort require a punishment/reward system, which is what you did. I'm a training teacher, and have dealt with autistic children. Better not to laugh, although it was pretty cute. Remain light hearted but firm.

  • First off, using "getting his head out of the bars" as reinforcement to stop spitting is horrid. Don't sit there and video tape your child while getting mad at him for not listening to you. This is not discipline, it's not a reward to get his head unstuck, and it's not funny. I can't believe you even uploaded this.

  • @07beretta You must be a saint! Praise 07beretta for having all the common sense of an angel!

  • @07beretta I know right! Get his head unstuck!

  • when he is older give him a weight vest

  • Ur older son is cute... :-) u gave birth to beautiful children :))) BTW i aint olldd.... im in gr 7 .. hahah

  • Dumbass family!

  • There's this cool new invention called your fists and you can use them on your son's retarded face to fix his autism a bit.

    - a good parent

  • @0123Megasavage Dude, he's like 4 years old. That's child abuse.

  • @Zapherenath

    I don't give a shit if he's 4, I'd beat him at age 4, 3, 2, 1, 5+

  • @0123Megasavage I mean, he has autism, dude. And, I don't know if you would notice, but I'm sure that if you actually do use your fists--- You'll leave a mark. And we all know what happens if there's a visible mark.

  • I know some doctors that have helped me i am autistic my self :) i know how u feel

  • Hey Anglynn74, I didn't know you knew Luca, it's a small world

  • Not sure what makes this child autistic??? Lots of kids are like this & do things like this but aren't autistic.

  • @Anglynn74 I noticed "hand flapping" similar to my daughters who was diagnosed as Autistic when she was four. She is now seven y/o. What is perceived by most(of us) as "spitting" actually is a self-stimulating behavior. I actually thought my child had "learned" that behavior from someone else. However, I knw now they're not forming the intent to do what we know as "spit". From personal experience, the self-stimulating behaviors tend to change as if they're growing out of one phase into another.

  • @honeebunni1 I completely agree with you! It appears that he's spitting to calm his nerves. Perhaps alternatives can be found? You're absolutely right that every autistic child is different!

  • Autistic children need a lot of patience, you can't say "are you going to Stop spitting? " it needs to be more direct. He was also getting stressed out about his head being stuck, as soon as you got him out he had stopped. They also feel irritated by bodily contact and don't like hugs, that's why he was wriggling and squirming.

  • Yeah I need serious help when it comes to Luca's anger as well..so if anyone has any tips please tell us!!

  • my daughter acts naughty aswell and with her no doesnt work saying dont doesnt work it must be very frustrating i know it is for me im basically a mum thats lost all hope.so far i think me and my daughter have mild cases of autism but in a kid is worse everyday im dealing with my daughter throwing her cup at me screaming for no reason at all at not listening to comands like no and dont do that hitting her doesnt work as she hits back.

  • @dreamdoll1988 hang in there. there is help available. do some online research for various techniques and find what works for your child vs. what does not... no Autistic child is alike. Seemingly, Autism manifests itself in different ways, in different people/children

  • He'd probably stop spitting if his head was out

  • Please go to a behavioral psychologist and work with them to learn parenting techniques for these special kids. Screaming & hitting will damage them. They need special systems in place for good and bad behavior. My wife & I went for a full year to a family psychologist and now we're a much happier family b/c of it.

  • maybe he spits because his head is stuck....

  • Nawwww hes like my little brother he also has autism so does my twin

  • I figured out that already hahaha...no spanking...pointless

  • What a cutie! Also HELL NO! To the spanking idea. You obviously are not raising a autistic child, and have no experience with one. Im a mother to a 4 year old Autistic Son who is unbelievably well behaved. Not by nature but by alot of consistent hard work. 90 percent of the time, they understand every little thing they are doing and you are saying ;) However on the spanking note, im all for spanking, it does not work with autistic kids. Best thing to do is distract the behavior or a time out.

  • Super cute kid!

  • Id have spanked my kid autistic or not. Goodluck! I know that raising a autistic child is hard and no one will understand but you! Best wishes. (:

  • @ProductionTimeKiller I don't think hurting a child will solve the problem with an autistic child. That's just mean and ignorant.

  • @sweetbutdaring

    He's like 3, how the heck do you even know someone is autistic at that age as opposed to just lacking good parenting?

  • PROBABLY BEST NOT TO LAUGH AT IT MUMMY! Just get the poor kid's head out of the bloody bannister!

  • He is soooooo cute....I know it is bad for him to spit but I can't help it he is the sweetest little boy I have ever seen...My son is 4 and has Autism so I know what you are going through...How did you get him to start talking I can't get my son to say anything??

  • yur sons hot

  • Comment removed

  • Just get his head out!

  • This lady's a bitch

  • Hell no to the saran wrap idea...he will either suffocate or choke to death and it probably wouldn't like very decorative. My son is also autistic and I can imagine that he would find some interesting things to do with the saran wrap. LOL, very cute video..my son gets his head stuck all of the time in the monkey bars.

  • Comment removed

  • Cute kid! 

  • I wouldn't yell i have autism my self but im not sure what you would do maybe find out why he is spiting? and take whatever it is that makes him do it away (im not sure)

  • Ok Ok people of the world...I figured it out hahaha. There is no more spitting YAY lol

  • Laughing at him encourages the behavior.

  • @LCDLGAZ Yes. Laughing only encourages it.

  • My oldest son doesn't even want his picture taken lol he is in the "I don't care about nothing, I know everything" stage hahaha

  • Hey mrSunshine lol you're right! He has been getting time out now. I can see the look in his eyes. Autism or not, my Luca knows what he is doing haha. It just took me a min

  • my son is autistic yet he still is dicipline like a normal child. he understands the word no. he knows when he is doing something wrong therfore can comprehend why he is placed in the corner or whatever the consiquence. a disability or difference in a child does not mean you cannot dicipline them you just may need to find a method they understand.

  • Get the kid unstuck and stop yelling at him! God.

  • @kimmieprincess1 Are you in her shoes, knowing the stress she has raising a kid with autism?

  • You don't you give him what he want's. He will probably give you what you want because he has to put it with it and won't do thing's for himself.

  • just punch him in the face!

  • hes doing that for atention

  • SO CUTE XD

  • @doubletheduckk so not cute!

  • I laugh at everything. It's part of my Asperger's Syndrome.

  • dude he has autiism!

  • i don't understand what is happening here. i would have said, NO just loud enough to shock and awe, calmly explained the consequence for spitting was getting your butt busted, asked the kid if he needed his butt busted, or if he would control himself. second spit, get up, walk over, remove head, whip butt with hand one time hard enough to shock and not damage. then i would hold and calm saying all things have consequences, think about them next time. this is how i was raised.

  • oh yeah..hes got your number. he spits 6 times and all you do is ask him if hes going to stop.

  • if you bring attention to the behavior he will continue to do it, you need to consistently ignore it unless its a self stim then you can possibly do an overcorrection preocedure where you tell him to keep spitting in a cup until it becomes uncomfortable to keep doing it.  eventually he will not want to spit anymore if once he spits you make him keep doing it in a cup

  • Are you in early intervention? He is a smart lil guy and knows that gets your attention.

    My Son just started ABA early intervention about 2 weeks ago and is behaving so much better. But you just have to not play into the negitive Walk away! plus 2-3 year olds whom are not autistic play power games just like that so part of it is Autism and part of it is him being a the adorable lil boy he is.

  • lol hi my name is katie my son keegan is 3 and is autistic and dose the same thing on our steps i cant stand when he spits and its like you tell them not to they do it even more. your lil boy is way to cute by the way

  • He is getting a lot of attention when he does this. Have you tried to ignore him and see if it gets old?

    When my non-verbal son does this type of thing I would remove him over and over. Almost like trying to keep him in bed, we would say nothing after all the goodnights were over and take him over and over to bed. It does get better mom!

  • My son does the licking too lol Shopping carts, my computer mouse, door knobs and if your lucky your arm!

  • why does he not stop spiting

  • Our son used to spit a lot. We have a "u spit, u clean" mantra his behaviorist put into place. Whenever he spits he has to get on all fours and clean the area he spit on, until it's aversive to him. The behavior went away after a breif escalation. His licking in public (tables,check out counters,etc) we carry lollipops to avert the licking in the first place.

  • Oh Noah did this a lot (he has aspergers). We tried to redirect him to something else and ignore it as much as possible. Didn't always help but, sometimes it did. He also would lick everything. Ewe I know. Especially cold things like metal shopping carts and refrigerator doors at the store. I think it is mostly sensory related and I tried to have stuff like suckers in my purse to give him to help give him some oral stimulation.
