@MrPhillipsamuel1992 He has a rountine of walking with me or nurses, so he assumes if you're there, you are ready to walk with him, too! I was just so happy he reached out, it shows how innocent and open he is to people, which is a far cry from his earlier years when all he did was avoid eye contact, people and isolate himself.

Good thing he's not aggressive, family is a big part of that. You don't know how many times I've been pinched, wacked up side of the head because that's all they now. Not from me! I wouldn't hurt a fly. Now if there's an Autistic person showing signs of pacing frantically and biting there palm. I bee line it out of there. Good luck Jamie and Mom, your good people.

@christinachase1997 Probably some sort of self stimulation. It looks like they are either playing music or transmitting white noise. That's to help his ears which are probably extremely sensitive to common noises and would most likely send him into an overwhelmed state causing a meltdown. Therefore with the headphones he can enjoy himself!

May I ask what the headphones are for?

I'm glad you share these videos as well, to few of people really grasp what autism is. I see it everyday so I know I go through some problem solving to figure my kids out, because unlike you the parents of my kids don't give me all the necessary information I need such as likes, triggers, food preferences, what to do when they are in crisis. I really wish all parents were like you; And i wish he was one of my students he looks like a super fun guy to be around.

He is such a cutie ! Your a beautiful and inspiring person! He's made progress because of you bring so open and patient with him. It's beautiful that you care for him so much! It makes me so sad to see parents who find their autistic child has a burden, although I'm sure it's hard many times, it just amazes me and inspires me so much that you, you can show him and help him understand life in a way no one else can.

All the positivity you show clearly makes a difference in his life! This was yet another uplifting video.

If he was my age i would so Have him as a boyfriend. He is so cute and I love people who are Autistic because they are so beautiful. And With my aspergers we would do well. I want to be a Social worker and help kids/teens like him feel like they can be themselfs and not be scard of the world.

@YourNumberOneSource If God wants to heal Jamey he will, but it won't be from his "autism" it would be from the self abuse and seizures. His autism has never been the problem for us, though the self abuse and seizures are rooted in autism. I guess I'm saying I just want the head punching and seizures to be healed because it's so physically and mentally painful for all involved.

What was it about that lady that made him want to take her hand? Did she look like one of his teachers?

@mikeymou She told me she worked with kids on an Indian reservation, which is funny, since my son is of Maidu Indian ancestry.

I love your courage enough to share and explain thanks so much I truly understand how we must cherish these rare precious moments that others can not appreciate. The 35 seconds of tenderness, or joy or cognitivity that push through in a hiccups amount of time or frequency cannot be short changed and can sometimes put a warm blanket on this cold reality of autism and all its peacock feathers
