Ana is an autistic kid with a genius IQ. She also has a physical disability known as arthrogryposis. At 8 years old, Ana wants to become an astrophysicist and study space. Many people tell her, "You are too smart to be autistic!" but Ana wants others to know that a person can be both highly intelligent and autistic.

Same thing happens to many child actors. What follows isn't always a happy adulthood. This little girl is SMART, but she is going to need some mature emotional skills to carry her though the adult years after the music stops. Adult life is far different than being a care free SMART KZfaq child star.

I hope people can understand that this isn’t maturity. I can relate to her experience because as a child I was in her same position. I was never labeled but was seen as gifted. I started reading very early and adults would always say I was an old soul. I’m working now with a therapist and have started to unpack that I was never mature but was just mirroring the adults around me. Which is what I see in this little girl. She is still an 8 year old little girl. Her mannerisms and way she speaks is on par with her mental age. She can hold in more information and learns information quicker than her peers but she still is just a girl. Which needs to be remembered because by labeling children as more mature you set them up to be taken advantage of. Which is what happened to me, I was 13 groomed by an older man. Maybe that’ll never happen in her situation and I hope it never does but it’s always a risk with labeling children as “mature”

you said it perfectly. every time i hear somebody call a child an "old soul" or "mature", it makes me uncomfortable. it has never sat right with me. by calling them that i think people are taking their childhoods away in a sense. a kid is a kid, no matter how eloquently they speak or how smart they are. let them be kids, treat them as kids, and let them have a childhood like a normal kid because if you take it away, it's going to cause serious issues later in their life. once it's gone, it's gone.

It got me worried to listen to her mother strongly saying she is so mature and stuff. Because she is not mature at all, and this can become a big problem later. Being able to retain and repeat lots of information can make a kid be gifted but does not make them mature. And you can tell by her demeanor and facial expressions how much she feels good and superior for saying "smart things" and the response she gets from people. I hope she can get to develope great social skills and emotional inteligence too. Kids who grow up thinking they are so much better than everyone else can experience horrible things in real life out there

I have aspergers and according to the online Norwegian Mensa test my IQ is 135 and I place in the 99th percentile. But to be fair the test is mostly just logic, pattern recognition and spatial perception which autistic people tend to excel at. I personally was never very good at math and I am also not very good at chess. When it comes to physics I always struggled with the math part but the theoretical part was easy to picture in my head.

We expose her to as much as possible and let her pick and choose what she wants to run with at the time (outside of core curriculum that is necessary) and we let her know that she will have SO, SO many options to pick from when she starts thinking about what she wants to do in her adult years. She may do multiple things! Who knows! She may do nothing for a while! We just hope we're around long enough to see what she finds that brings her the most joy. 💙💙💙

I was quite similar to this girl as a kid, not gifted by any means, but a very advanced vocabulary and the ability to verbally express myself better than most adults, cheerful demeanor, lost in my fantasy world. The danger of that is when people get the impression you're sooooooo mature for a kid, they unconsciously expect you to be able to match that level of ability in other aspects of your life as well. When in reality, you may actually have significant delays/disabilities in other areas, though they may not be as noticeable from the outside when you're intelligent or verbally very strong. So I wasn't taken seriously, I didn't get the support or accommodations I needed and looked lazy and like I wasn't living up to my potential. Dropped out of school at 15, was never able to get a degree or a job. 30 Years old, can't feed or wash myself, will never be an independent adult. Do not be fooled.

I believe that is because if you get a gift of any kind, you need to sacrifice something else. Clearly people do not understand that and expect you to be the best from the rest. As you grow older the sacrificing parts come into play and then you are worse than normal people. But it's ok. Enjoy your life. It moves at the same pace for everyone. Do not worry too much about people and society. Be happy with whatever you have :) All the best.

I am in a similar situation. Been obese my whole life, also dropped out at 15 (i had foot surgery at 13 that I never fully recovered from), have had a ton of setbacks from sickness (threw up every day for 3 years), and just in general I would be considered a "mess" to put it lightly. I completely understand wanting to give up, I too want to give up most days. My aunt (she's like my mom basically raised me) has dementia after her surgery and with all of my family on the way out of this world, I don't really know what I will do when they pass away. But let me tell you something man, the longer you wait, the worse it gets. You and me know it better than anyone else. For the past 5 years of my life I've done nothing but whine and cry, "Why me, why was I born? I was given the worst hand I could possibly think of, yet I'm supposed to continue on like nothing ever happened? How could I even function in the real world I've missed every single chance to make friends or have a possibility of making connections as easy as others do." For years, that's all I did. What did I get in return? Did I lose the weight? Have I made it back into society? Nope, and try as I might, even if I do, I waited too long to show the person who I love the most where I am at, what I became. Start now. The only things left to do are to start now and try and change what you can, even if it isn't everything, it's a lot better than staying in that hole you are in. Trust me, even if you don't think you'll sink deeper, if you do nothing, the hole only goes down. I hope you get out of this rut friend, remember we aren't getting any younger. Please update if you can, I understand if not.

Oh my son HATED hand dryers, public toilets (cause they can be SO loud), we couldn’t use either. Most loud noises, really. He’s almost 20 now. He was diagnosed Aspie (Asperger’s) at 3.5. This precious angel very much reminds me of my Gavin at her age. What an AMAZING young person ❤ I could watch her all day. Blessings to you and your family. Thank you for sharing a slice of your life for others. I believe it most definitely encourages awareness of differences and the absolute beauty in ALL humankind’s differences- which creates an amazing oneness ❤❤❤

Im 17 and a proportional dwarf. Meaning I look completely normal but I’m only 4’5. Therefore I dress like an adult, speak, and act like an adult. However im the size of a 9 year old due to hormone trouble and having a parent who refused any medical attention that I needed

Yes, they're actually technically a part of special education. People just don't realize that they'll name it like Target or whatever that are more advanced, but they're not really that much more advance. I'm not a fan of the term gifted because it kind of implies that other kids aren't gifted or it can easily be treated as if someone who may have a disability may not also be gifted at the same time. It should be just considered accelerated learning which is what it is.

She is obviously highly intelligent (and this will only keep on evolving as she grows older and gets more experience), but I'm afraid she will hit a wall one day when she realizes that people might not like her not because of her physical or mental difference, but because she comes off as someone who thinks they're superior to others because of her intellect. I don't like the way she laughs when you say; "can you explain that?" or "That's a big word". I'm all for building her up and giving her confidence, but I hope that her mom also teaches her humility, as if she doesn't I believe it will come back to haunt her in the future. Regardless; amazing video, she is clearly very intelligent and she doesn't see her "disabilities" as very disabling or a hinderance, which is good!

That's the story for most of all autistic that have "higher capacities". People are still extremely ignorant about what autism looks like and why. She's not coming as superior on purpose, she is literally info dumping, she is literally correcting information that's wrong and she is simply being confidence on facts like she's smart. It's not bragging, for her it's literally talking about facts, things she knows and she's interested in. Let's remember autism has a lot to do with the lack of communication and social skills. I don't know why a lot of people on these comments are ignoring it like she was an evil project of a "narcissistic" mother (did you know there's a huge chance she's also autistic, and that autism in women is usually misdiagnosed as narcissism?). She will need and is probably already going to therapy to help her social disability. Give these ladies a break! people are even mad at the mother deleting bad comments on her channel and complaining about negativity when it's, again, a fact in the life of these ladies. It's very disappointing how disabilities have to carry certain amount of pity to be considered valid.

Hyperfocus on a subject and info dumping are part of autism, and when you're TOLD you're smart and mature, constantly, It's hard not to speak about what you love in a competent way. Also, IQ testing means she was given number... So if she gets a number on the higher end, say 160, well factually 160 > 100, so to her, it means she is "smarter". People with autism take things literally.

Tapping my leg, fiddling with a fidget, etc. I also try to control my breathing/breath slowly and deeply, close me eyes, and try to ground myself and focus on one thing and tune out what's overstimulating me as best I can.

I don't know..when I was a child I was considered highly intelligent. I skipped grades and got very bored at school. I was never fully supported though...not that it matters now, I feel like I was just ahead of my peers at the time more than anything. People catch up later in life and children's brains are like sponges, absorbing everything, some just at a faster or slower pace than others. I wouldn't want to see this child growing up with a massive ego only to come to the realisation later in life she isn't as special as she was told...it's a long way to fall when it's become ingrained into your identity all your life. Id say encourage her to learn and support her but don't label her. That's something she should figure out on her own. Let her create her own identity.

Eating disorders, addiction, depression, anxiety, promiscuity, relationship issues etc can all stem from low self worth and It's dangerous.

My daughter was like this growing up, like she had been round a couple of times before. Loads of frustration as a toddler as her little body was not mature enough to do what her mind wanted. Told me at the age of 3 she was ready to be independent and live on her own. She struggled in main stream school, was excluded and studied for GCSE’S at home on her own, passed everything. Skipped A levels as she disappeared from home and school to live in squats on her own at 16. Finally came back to the family, diagnosed as autistic with masking as an adult and suddenly everything made sense. Sailed through a masters degree whilst raising the most amazing son of her own, now works as a health professional. Still needs her mother to help her navigate the world and still cannot tell time. Autism is an odd condition. Yes, most people do not see her autistic traits, OCD etc. as a mother it can be really hard coping with these children. They live in a universe of there own.

As a "gifted" person who feels uncannily like I'm looking at myself here (though I don't have ARC); PLEASE make sure she gets all of the support she needs to get through life. I hit a wall in my teens with PTSD and received no support from there, and I'm now struggling to make my way through from way behind. Please please please help her maintain the support she needs into adulthood!

Yeah. People talked about me like this as a kid- “like a 30 year old in a 10 year old’s body”, “intelligent”, “gifted”, etc (no autism diagnosis at the time, but regardless). The transition to adulthood has been difficult. I think everyone thought I would coast because of the perceived smarts, but that ended up not being the case. Once I got into my tweens and teens anxiety and depression became a big problem. I’m lucky my parents are still supporting me and are cognizant of these issues. I hope she doesn’t encounter such barriers, but important to be aware of in case she does.

She is sassy and delightful! I love her excitement and the way she approaches learning and teaching others. She is mature and her mother adjusts to her level, but she obviously is allowed to play and feel like a child. Her parents obviously strike a perfect balance in that. They also encourage her independence. Her confidence has obviously bloomed from this. As a parent of a ASD young man, I can see how they came up with the path to raising her and teaching her. I have no concern. She is amazing and allowed to be “normal” at the same time. Thanks for sharing Ana with us. I hope she continues to bloom and love life to the fullest! ❤

I was diagnosed as highly intelligent at 15 years old and also with other mental illnesses. I was diagnosed at a late age and no one knew before what was up with me. First and foremost I'd like to note that not all highly intelligent people or kids act like this kid. When I was a kid I was super quiet and didn't talk about interests at all with people because I knew they didn't want to hear that. I was very reserved and perfectionistic, my mom told me that I never made any of my clothes dirty during my whole childhood. I was also interested in humans and classical music and they became obsessively important to me. I was smart, I would say things that came out of the blue whenever I felt like it would resonate with people. But other than that I wouldn't talk about 'intelligent' things, I would just make myself more understandable for kids my age and talk about their interests and their lives. I was very much interested in people as I said. This late diagnosis and never being understood (even by family and sometimes friends) had a big impact on me. Highly intelligence isn't always pink, especially if it's not seen - or to hard focused on.

I think alot of it has to do with her mom being her bio grandmother. Being raised by someone older. She has spent so much one on one time with her teaching her and I think that’s a huge thing for Ana. The “dad” has been there maybe a couple years. Her mom (bio grandmother) started dating him then. It’s sweet how she calls him dad. She very much deserved a dad
