Phil I sooo agree that there are some autistic behaviors that you should encourage. I link your videos to all my new friends who reach out to me regarding autism and always post them to my facebook s well. I am still learning every day what to try to eliminate and what to nurture. Thanks for posting this!!

Thanks so much for your comment and for helping me with my videos!

I agree now can you send your video series to colleges around the U.S. so they can be played for teachers and therapists. I find there is a real gap between their book knowledge and really knowing what works for each individual child. Many just can't get away from the cookie cutter model every child will conform. It is so bad for them all the way around it breaks my heart.

Great Video.

Hi Phil.

As always, something interesting from you.

I was glad to see you had a change of mind or whatever u want to call it :)

I also noted that some who do not udnerstand better, may misunderstand: depression IS very common for people with ASD, its the most common comorbidity -regardless of wether or not you are trying to create a "cookie cutter kid". I do ofc agree w. you that u do not want a cookie cutter kid;)

Thanks bumsendk,

i dont know that it was a change of heart or mind as much as it was just a realization that the facts are saying one thing and i am believing another.

My boys flap, a lot. Its how they tell me if they are happy or exited I dont discourage it, because its their way of showing their glee, why would anyone want to suppress that?

The behaviours that cause a problems are the ones such as self harming, these I discourage and stop for their benefit.

No anoyance here phill, as you know, I agree 100% autism is not the enemy :)

I grew up with autism and my father just yelled at me when I made mistakes or when I had trouble following commands. It is because of this I grew up with low self esteem and didn't understand why I was the way I am now. It was not until the age of 18 that I started to hear about autism and realized the similarities I had with autism (confirmed by a doctor). Autism gave me a lot of disadvantages, but it also gave me advantages. It helped learn how to play 5 Instruments and it helped me understan

Hey, these are really good. A lot more people should watch them.

And off to the side of your great discussion of autism, you explain what went wrong with the war. That's talent.

You should be doing something beyond making videos that only get 2000 views. Really. Write a book or something.

With so much information out there for parents of autistic kids, you do a really good job of boiling it down and presenting something very succinct and articulate and easy to understand. My son is 7, diagnosed with Aspergers last year.

I totally disagree with trying to maake an ASD child act normal around. I think regular people should learn to tollerate them and understand them. I don't believe make them behve more like normal people is'nt good for them

btw, I used to be kittiesrock46. Unfortunately I've lost all my videos, and I still don't have a video camera. I've stayed out of the autism loop for a year, but decided to return.

Temple Grandin has a great insight on how she believes autistic children should be parented. She agrees that to make things fair, autistics should accommodate the NTs as well as the NTs accommodate them. She is glad that her parents pushed her to be polite though all the drills they gave her. A geek shouldn't be degeekified, but he should be made into a polite geek. Special interests should be channeled, not smashed. Otherwise, she would have never made it to the career of her choice.

[AnElephantThatPaints]

oh crap, I gave you a thumbs down when I meant a thumbs up. sorry!

Yeah, just worry about fixing things that could possibly hurt the children.

[jon2xu]

hey Phil. your good at these kind of videos. hope all is well.

[deleahmarie]

i know you're not exaggerating. my son has been picked on so hard at school for his autism that he has been institutionalized for a couple of weeks due to depression and suicidal threats. i have so much knowledge about autism, yet apparently i dont know exactly the best method for treating the disorder because my son is still showing most of the same behaviors he was at age 3 and now he is 12. i know i wrote you a message, but i am viewing more of the videos now.

I always felt that you MUST work with whatever you're child has got. Stims, obsessions and special interest are all tools to motivate your child and teach him new things. As you say: teach the child to communicate and let the rest be. I find as I do this the autistic behaviours decrese and I understand the remaining behaviours better.
