How to parent my autistic child

Рет қаралды 57,303

Күн бұрын

Some valuable parenting lessons from Ros Blackburn, a public speaker who is severely autistic. And some exclusive snippets from our successful ‘Coming Home to Autism’ charity event in collaboration with mASCot.
If your child was recently diagnosed with autism and you don't know where to turn? Getting that diagnosis can be overwhelming. Building a network of other parents of kids with autism, and adults on the spectrum can help you navigate the road ahead. Autistic children can learn anything and do anything with practice and patience.

I never thought I would have to deal with anything like ASD and the overwhelming feeling that I can’t do this in time. My son is only 6 but each day I don’t really help him feels like I’m neglecting him. This was the 1st video I’ve watched that didn’t freak me out. Hearing Roz was non verbal until 12 and didn’t really talk u til 25 but is now a public speaker, speaks volumes. Thanks for your channel.

I needed this I'm living in a country that has nothing free for autism and as a single mom with no income I'm home alone 24/7 with my kid. They put him out if school and this country doesn't facilitate autism or adhd. Unfortunately I'm alone in this until he's old enough to maybe go to work with Me if any employer will allow it. I highly doubt unless it's like house cleaning. We barely have food and clothing but he's so bright and smart. He just can't sit down for too long. I'm going to watch all your videos now. I don't have any help. Thanks for this. You're a God sent.

It is such a blessing to watch this video. My goodness... You are so lucky that there is help support and love for the special children. I for one find this very very hard because I am a solo father of 4 children and 2 of them are autistic. Unfortunately, the mother of my children left our family for another man who can supply her with plenty of money. She left our family I think she is ashamed of the fact that 2 of our beautiful angels are autistic. I can only wish there was support or a special system for special children like my poor autistic boys. Is there a group of parents that I can reach out to for teachings and support in raising my autistic boys? watching this video brings tears to my eyes as a solo father caring for my children. I never thought I would ever speak in such a way of heartbreak.

I have always had high expectations for my son since always even before starting to show delays in his speech etc and I definitely agree with Ross... I feel that it has been a very important factor in His improvements now and I keep challenging him and pushing boundaries. I will recognise it is exhausting, you might feel sad or discouraged when you push to hard or doesn’t get the outcome you wanted but time will proved you did the right thing as it might not work the first time, first couple of time but will pay off later. Never give up if it doesn’t always go well. Cry all you need, sleep on it, stop for a while, rethink it and try again as often as you need. Thanks for sharing, knowing these advices come from an autistic person reassure me that I’m doing the right thing. Many thanks.

This is hard for you right now as your babies are close and your on your own. Your son can he go to a specialist nursery setting and I’m guessing school next September. If you have anyone that can help during the day so they can take either your son or your daughter so you can spend some one on one time with them? If you son like iPads or tv don’t feel guilty letting him play on mums phone while you cuddle play with your daughter . This helped me with Dylan and luca when luca was younger.

My son Noah was diagnosed at 3 with ASD and ADD, he is now a few months from his 5th birthday. Raising him will be the hardest thing I'll ever do in my life, I have anxiety and depression that is revolved around his future. I never think about the present, I worry about how long this phase will last or if it will ever get better. I get stuck in a funk often because of Autism and i'm not afraid to admit that it is hard to handle as a mother. I didn't sign up for this. WHY am I a special needs mom? WHY me? WHY my son? I have a lot of questions. I struggle to live in the moment and find things that I can do with my son. I frequently do things like dressing and feeding for him because it is faster than letting him do it himself. I am in Florida USA. I just wanted to write a comment cause I stumbled across your channel. I love your calm videos and your accent. Thank you for sharing!

It’s the same with any child, the more you do for them, the less independent they become. I was always determined to create an independent and self sufficient child, but having an autistic child has thrown a spanner in the works, I’ve definitely had to adjust my expectations, but I’m still determined for him to become independent. I feel like it’s the role of a father to make sure the mother is not too much of a soft touch and to ensure the child is still challenged regularly.

I have a topic that I would love for you to touch base on if possible!! I have a 6 year old son name Ayden who was diagnosed at the age of 2. I now have a 3 month old and I see Ayden becoming jealous. Ayden doesn't really like to be around the baby at all so with that being said he gets jealous and isolates himself more than usual..how did Dylan do when his sibling was brought home how did he handle it and how did u deal with bringing a new baby to the house? I wanted to have a sibling for Ayden so he can have a forever best friend but there are times where I feel like I made the wrong decision because Ayden is having such a hard time adjusting that he's not the only child. I would love to hear your story.

When I met Ros some 11 yrs ago she gave a talk and having kids on the spectrum And not knowing what to expect with kids on the spectrum I had a few questions so asked her carer if I could speak to her she said yes of course but when I approached Ros it totally threw her and as I could see as a neural typical I withdrew as she was getting a bit agitated by my presence. I found it intigueing that she could be so able to give a talk yet still be in nappies and not get the concept of toilet training. Now my step children are adults on the spectrum And the youngest being so able in some respects yet so Profound autistically in other respects.

I am a mother and I have autism. I agree with the essence of all of this, but with a big caveat that hasn’t been acknowledged in the comments here: If everything is new, it’s too much at once. The example of slowly increasing the requirements to be allowed outside is a good one. That’s at home in a familiar environment. But once you start talking about new places and new people, it’s so easy to go too far at once. To someone who doesn’t have autism, it may seem reasonable that “kids need to learn to go new places” so they need to be just brought places. But I’d suggest making sure lots of other things stay the same when that happens. Make sure familiar people are around, that your kid is wearing familiar comfy clothing, and so on. The last time I was at the dentist (which normally isn’t a problem for me) I had a new hygienist who used a different type of scaling tool, I sat in a different chair, something wet touched my face, and the sounds around me seemed different… it was too many changes at once. I could have handled one or two of those changes, but I had to stop the appointment. A kid in my situation (with autism, maybe without) could easily have had a screaming crying fit, without anyone knowing why because those changes weren’t so obvious to anyone else. Teach kids to try new things at the pace they can manage. These parents talking proudly about pushing their kids may be trying to do this already, but it isn’t really clear here and I think it may be hard (for people without autism) to identify what is causing upset some of the time.
