One of California's most complex cases of autism (autism complicated with brutal self-injurious behaviors-head punching) has increasingly better days with addition of 5-HTP to plan of care. Also, continued applications of pro-active, acute therapeutic interventions to maintain homeostasis. Incredible amount of time, planning and careful implementation of dozens of interventions must take place daily to prevent self abusive meltdowns.

  • It is a good thing that I wasn't around! I would have tested out my trench knife on him! no threat intended

  • @multisnootylives1 Oh, how sweet multisnootylives1, no threat intended, do you think that will save your latest account name? I doubt it. You are perhaps the most nefarious, mentally ill person ever seen on you tube.

  • Wonderful :)

    But quick question which is totally off topic...

    Why those pants?

    They don't AT ALL match his sweater and they're way too short for him

    SOrry xD Just curious

  • @landth78 I know I didn't do a very good job dressing him that day. He was moving around so much I just grabbed what was easiest.

  • I was wondering how do strangers, people "on the street", treat him on daily basis? And do you explain to them what he has?

  • @sidandmoi Most people understand that he is severely autistic, especially people who have worked with autism, but others aren't sure. It's always an educational opportunity and I'm not shy about it. I make sure people see him. We take him everywhere, though it's not easy, because you don't know if he'll flip out..he went beserk in target when the clerk announced something LOUDLY on speakers in store...

  • @multisnootylives1 so stupid of you saying that

  • OMG IS THIS IN SALINAS CA? My sons being tested for autism. I dont know anyone in my area who has kids with this issue 0_0

  • He's a very handsome young man. Love his eyes. :)

  • I love your video's, I have recently started working with children with autism as a teaching assistant and it's a huge step forward but very rewarding. I find your video's very inspirational and I know every child with autism won't be the same as another, but even if I have the slightest positive effect on their lives I'll be happy.

    Also on an unrelated note 1:21 is definitely the host of "epicmealtime".

  • @multisnootylives1 Classless.

  • I hate how some people in the store where staring at him like he was some freak! Your son is wonderful god made him that way!

  • @landth78 wht a douchbag u r. 

  • @TheSynnSunn Thanks so much. YOu sound like a wonderful sister!

  • @IGuessItsSteph I think the same thing!

  • @multisnootylives1 WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU MAN???
