I feel that this episode is a message from God. Maybe this is the most important episode, I've ever recorded. If you don't have time to read - Jump straight to my podcast page HERE.
Want to talk after watching this?
Nonverbal children speak after years of silence (mine did. Yours can too).
I clicked on Youtube and saw this tiny girl (who had been nonverbal until now) say: "My mom is the best mom in the whole world." A miracle? No. Wild? Yes. It happened to my son as well.
That's when I decided to make a reaction video to show you how this truly can happen.
6 year old autistic boy elopes and drowns.
Then I kept scrolling In "Canada autism coalition's Facebook group" and I froze as autism moms asked for prayers for a 6 year old autistic boy who had eloped and drowned while he was with his mom in a park in Canada. Yesterday they were looking for him. Now he is gone.
Gut punch. I myself have jumped into a pool - fully dressed and with my shoes on to save my 5 year old eloping son from sinking towards the bottom. I knew I had to include this video in my reaction podcast to prevent other moms from going through this. I remember when my whole life was a 911 emergency rescue operation. Trying to save my son from being crushed by cars, fall from balconies or get hit by trains.
Adults and teens put into homes for aggression that we can prevent.
Then I saw this on Instagram: A mom being violently attacked by her teenage son because he was nonverbal and frustrated about waiting for dinner. And another autism mom reacting with this conclusion: These grown children need to go to a home when they grow up. They are not "a gift" and somebody more capable must take over.
It's ALL linked. The reason why the girl was nonverbal and suddenly spoke in full sentences. Nonverbal autism is TOTALLY misunderstood.
The reason why the boy eloped and drowned and the reason why aggressive youngsters and adults end up in homes. Locked up and treated like caged animals.
Let's make the first video your reality and prevent you from ending up on YouTube as yeah another of these endless, tragic cases of misunderstood, mistreated autism...
