You are so right, David, this world just needs to accept people and not shun those who seem different. I would never want Braylee to feel like she needs to mask her difference. She has so much to offer this world, she needs to be able to share her differences and know that she is accepted and appreciated.

braylee had so much fun dancing, i bet her friends were happy to see her

I love it so much that Braylee has her opinion about what dresses she likes! Some kids don’t care which of course is fine too. What a super fun night!

The dress on Braylee looked very nice. Thank you you for the video. Sweet memories of her dancing.🫶😉

How is Braylee so pure? We can all take a lesson from her 💛🧡💚💙

Braylee looks so gorgeous in that dress. Also, her talking is getting much more better than ever❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hey everyone! Braylee I love the dress, you look beautiful hon! I hope you had lots of fun at the dance! That's right David she is showing how awesome she is! She does know in her little way and will learn it more and more as she gets older! You guys are all awesome! See you in the next video! 😊❤

So happy Braylee had a great time. I was crying I was so happy. I have been following Braylee’s journey for a long time. David you said it perfectly. Being different is ok. Spreading autism awareness is going to make the world a better place for all children. Braylee you looked amazing in that dress. What a great Daddy Daughter date dance together. Just priceless.

If anybody can’t accept Braylee for who she is,then they’re the ones that are different.. Anyway, Braylee looked very pretty in that dress and I know she in her own way, enjoyed the father-daughter dance..Thanks for sharing👍! Love you all and God bless✝️🙏🏻🙂❤️🌈!

She's more social than me 😅

I absolutely love your family, this one really tugged at my heart strings!! I just wanted to say the relationship as far as father and daughter go is the most beautiful thing to watch! Thank you for sharing your family with us all!! B, you looked beautiful baby girl! ❤❤❤

It looks like she had more fun this year.❤

I understand, I am an adult living with Asperger’s Syndrome, and a mild learning delay, they say now that Asperger’s is just higher functioning autism, I don’t really know. I do know that it’s a struggle with learning certain life skills, however I do enjoy my life I am on the special Olympics team which is a lot of fun, I do have a part time job, which is going pretty good. I live on my own. Bray Lee has come a long ways since I had started watch a few years ago. You both doing a great job with her.

Totally understand that feeling of wanting to know what your child is thinking

Braylee was looking lovely and she had great fun on her daddy daughter date night. She is a lovely little girl. (liked your haircut and clean shaven as well David) you both do brilliant with Braylee. I love seeing her progress on all she is doing. 🥰Xxx

You should get grandma to watch her once a week so you can have date night, and time together just the two of you.

She looks so nice i wish ppl are nicer

You were talking about how important building a community is, for both Braylee & you as parents. I'm loving that your community is not just other families with autistic children (like the Maass family). Imo as an autistic adult, it's extremely important to have a wide variety of people in your community. You will relate to each of them on a different level

Love this

She looks beautiful. I had to lol at "no" Our daughters 8, and so similar to B. Our girl loves to go to parties and music and dancing! She has challenges with communicating too. I know how you feel and I know as our girls get older, their differences to typical girls is more pronounced. I just love your chat at the end. Thank you for that.

She is just a little sweetheart💕

Love this video

Wow sounds like fun Braylee must have had some fun

♥️♥️Please Stacey or David, this Dance brought up a comment I have asked several times. I know there is an entire sector of Autism that believe their kids need to MASK to be more Neurotypical. That will make their child's life better. I disagree. The reason I disagree is because I have watched over the years how the two of you allow Braylee to just be who she is. You're not telling her you need to act like other people so you will be more normal. whatever that means. I know you understand what I'm saying. There is this young lady on KZfaq who is so amazing I can't believe she's more than 16 or I don't know, she seems young. She is so articulate about Autism and it's really a treat to hear her talk about it and she said MASKING was the worst thing for her ever. The reason she gave was that it was always trying to change who she was. For instance so-called neurotypical people when they meet somebody they reach out their hand, they look in the other person's eyes, and they say, pleasure to meet you. So she had to go through these drills over and over till she could mimic neurotypical behavior. And she said it was all BS, because she didn't feel it at all and she did not want to do it. It wasn't in her nature. I think this would be a great conversation for a video. I think the way you guys are with Braylee is the best way. If they're not harming themselves or harming others then why try and correct who they are? it doesn't need correction. it's the outside world that needs to see people on the spectrum for who they are and the way that they are and that is just perfect. In saying all this, I want to know what you guys feel about ABA therapy. I sure hope you will comment back to me because I find this such a fascinating subject and it's one reason I love watching your videos. Today is my birthday May 20th and I can't believe I'm 66 years old and I am definitely not neurotypical. I love the Wee family 💕🫂🔥

Love Braylee dress it's beautiful and Braylee is beautiful

Braylee looked beautiful she is awesome young lady ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

B looks perfect in her dress. She's really growing up, although the whole puberty thing is gonna be rite around the corner, brace yourselves!! Lol I have 2 girls myself & they are 13 & 16. Its a Rollercoaster some days..

Braylee you are an amazing young girl who helps me to except myself

🌸 💙💙💙

Have she tried a communication device like Abby Moss uses?

I always felt different. Or made to feel different. Like being kicked out of kindergarten for not fitting in. I am from the 60's. Autism wasn't yet a thing. Braylee has it so much better. How my face looks to others does not necessarily show my feelings. I might look bored for instance but having a really good time. I hear the same thing from other autistics. I think because you guys know your kid, it is about more then facial expression. People that know me can often tell more about my state of mind by looking at my hands rather then my face. Braylee's speech is improving little by little. "Vulonteering" words however.... I am still not great at it. Keeping a conversation going.... yikes... I still feel like I need to be prompted sometimes, otherwise I am fine being quiet, or at least not speak to others. Echolelia yes. I do however have a full vocabulary, and I hope Braylee keeps improving her communication skills in general.

When is Braylee 5 grade graduation

Try using her acc device to have a conversation with her about the event to see how she feels about it. But as long as she is happy it doesn’t matter.
