As a foster mother in the states I agree with using caution when calling CPS. We can barely get basic resources for our foster kiddos. Therapeutic and special needs foster homes are completely maxed out in capacity in my state, where kids are being placed in hotels. Of course resources and homes are state dependent, and unfortunately, our state is small and low on resources. Kiddos coming into our home are severely traumatized, in which being moved into a foster home adds more trauma. They've placed kids back with parents failing drug tests because they deemed the parent still able to care for their child under the influence. There's such a shortage of resources and homes in our state that they have lowered the bar for children's care. I also see a lot of people assuming Asa was lying about CPS having a more dire case. While he could be lying, unfortunately we've had a caseworker break case confidentiality before. One of our monthly visits was delayed because the caseworker said she had to focus on a runaway before she could get to us. It happens. The system is not perfect at all. I really hope one of these days Josh could do a video on CPS/foster system in general. It has a lot of issues that really needs to be addressed.

I’ve always watched family vloggers (my escape, i’m from a very dysfunctional family - seeing their highlights was like “ahh nice families do exist”) and I didn’t see the exploitation side of family vlogging until your videos. I totally value your content, it’s so eye opening and you really do only advocate for the children. It’s too bad not everyone is willing to see the family vlogs/content for what it is, as well as being more careful. There are soooo many (too many unfortunately) predators and creeps.

Abbie does not know how to use the bathroom. She knows how to ASK for the bathroom. It’s one of her very limited vocabulary. She wears pull ups. I think she just goes into the bathroom because it’s a small, safe, and comforting place but she just stands there.
@CrystalCat24

She can use the bathroom on her own during the day. The reason she has to wake her parents up is because she's locked in her room at night via baby gate and other locks that she can't figure out. And as u said, she wears pull ups at night with her backwards pajamas. I do just want to call out, to Josh's entire family vlogger point, is something that I shouldn't know....

After all the complaining about CPS last week, they should see this video. Why would a sick child be left alone outside beside a swimming pool?

You are so right Josh CPS does not have to show up. My grandchildren are in foster care today because the father died and the mother ran away. I called CPS I went personally to the office they never did make a call to the home. The first time they went to the home was one of my little three-year-old grandson climbed out on the roof of a three-story home and the police were called. That's when they got involved. He is doing everything you explained in your video. They need to watch what they're filming. And I agree Abby doesn't need to be taken away from them.

I am a parent of a son with special/extra needs, and I have been accused of exploiting him on social media. I have a small following on FB and TT, and have shared our lives for years for many reasons, so when someone said this to me I initially got really offended and assumed the person just didnt 'get it'. SO MUCH of my life is my son, so it made sense that most of my videos included my son. After really thinking about it I have changed some things about my content, and I think any loving parent would do the same. My son is almost 27 and he actually can consent now, (and may have a female fan or two at his day program) but I definitely went back through and watched everything through a different lens. We have created some huge monsters by paying these people so much money, I hope this is the turning point and things will continue to change.

I am so very happy to read your story and although it is a bit bad that people gave you so much backlash but sometimes it is needed to make people see what they are doing to us. Abby is actually not giving consent in many diffrent ways. From shaking her head “no” to pushing away the camera. There are kids(some are now adult) that now speak up when their family has exploited them by living in a van and filming every day. Or non speaking kids that type and tell that way that it was a hell with parents that put everything online. I was pushed to speak and not have my own pace which actually cut into my ability to speak now. Im 32 and i am thankfull to live in the netherlands and there is (nearly) no access to ABA. That would have crushed me as it has crushed many others. Thank you for being mindfull about what you put online and what you dont. We are just humans with a different need of support then others. :)

My son was born in 98 and we had to be his advocate to get his diagnosis which finally happened when he was around 11yrs old. We didn’t have hardly any resources in my area att and we didn’t know other parents with kid’s on the spectrum , so I might of looked for a channel like fathering autism back then. Fortunately they had forum’s and Facebook groups to talk to other parents about it. So I think fathering autism still could have the channel and do well without Abby ( but Abby brings in the $). Not that I’d watch him,but I know my son looks up channels about autism or looks up others on the spectrum.

Seriously! I agree 10,000%. The worst part, in my opinion, is that Asa & Priscilla constantly drag Abbie to Dunkin Donuts meet-&-greets with her "fans," & they force her to take pictures with these people & even hug them -- all the while knowing that she cannot consent to any of it. She literally cannot speak. Her communication skills are extremely, EXTREMELY limited. There is no way for her to tell her parents "I really don't feel like doing a meet-&-greet today" or "Hey, these people are making me extremely uncomfortable, please don't make me hug these strangers anymore." The way Asa & Priscilla exploit her is absolutely heartbreaking to me. They parade her around like she's a goddamn show pony & not a human being. Is that not the freaking textbook definition of child exploitation? I mean, come on now -- what else would you call that?! Considering how gross & creepy some of her "fans" are, I'm honestly shocked & disgusted that her parents still make her do these meet-&-greets. It's vile.

I took my son out of school but I had to have it signed off on by the school and a plan in place before I could so I just do not get it.

@The Dad Challenge Podcast at one point you said that CPS (or DCPS/DCF) doesn't unjustifiably take children away... but they do because I too am disabled and was taken from my home for 11 days. My social worker took a personal vendetta against my parents, lying to the judge, falsifying evidence &/or cherry picking medical facts (recommendations). Yes, I would say that DCF does do good work in some cases BUT there are situations where physically abled people have a preconceived notion as to how "easy" it is to live a challenged life. Often times we tow the line of how closely we follow a doctors orders because sometimes their recommendations can negatively effect the rest of my body. For example, if I drink 8 cups of water a day my kidneys will hurt and water will collect at my feet. So I have to drink about 4 to balance between 'dehydrated' and 'drowning". It's just a fact that non medical people (DCF social workers) just DONT understand.

About the washroom debacle. I don't know if they still do this, cause they've not shown it in ages, and I haven't really watched anything recently, but they used to put her pjs on backwards, like zip up ones, so she couldn't take them off at night cause I guess she was smearing feces or something would be my guess. So she would probably need help to go to the bathroom in that case, if they are still putting her in the zip up pajamas on backwards. Again, though, that was years ago I saw a video about that. So she may not wear those to bed nowadays.

Ya right? These people don't even get up early in the morning. I've seen many many vlogs where they comment that Abbie sleeps until like 10or 11 most mornings and Asa always says it's bcuz Abbie stays up so late. But Abbie depends on them to go to sleep at night she doesn't put herself to sleep. This family is the epitome of lazy and now she's starting to really gain weight. Not surprised since it seems she always wants to eat and they stuff her full of it. All processed and junk food and sweets. I get it's ok sometimes but everyday? They clearly don't care about her being healthy and always pass it off that she's just a typical teenager. No sorry Asa she's not. They are 100% responsible for the way she eats since they are the ones feeding it to her. She doesn't go and buy this crap herself. Yes teenagers like junk food and will often buy themselves treats, but Abbie isn't going out buying the junk, they stuff her full of it. Sadly by the time she is 18 she will most likely be pretty overweight if this continues. And it's not just that they feed her a lot, it's how much and what they feed her. I swear every vlog I see if them there is always a clip of them eating or going through the drive thru for donuts or getting ice cream or chick filet or Chipotle. It's never eating something healthy.

I understand not all teens are health conscience but when they are 100% responsible for her diet, they should be ashamed. She eats like shit. Processed foods, take out several times a week. Sugary dunkin drinks etc..they are lazy. He always says he shows us what he wants. Then show us what a happy healthy family does. For God sake, why don't you walk your dogs daily...show that!!!

@dailealexander2055
@dailealexander2055 Год назад
I agree completely. Abbie's parents need a MAJOR reality check, especially if they still think there's ANY realistic chance of Abbie living independently someday. That is clearly NEVER going to happen. Abbie seems like a great kid, don't get me wrong, but her intellectual disabilities are EXTREMELY profound. She has to be constantly prompted to do anything & everything, or else she gets distracted & wanders off. This is clearly a child that will need full-time 24-7 care for her entire life. Asa & Priscilla make so much money off their RU-vid channel, they could easily afford to hire some of the best professionals in the field to come teach Abbie & give her a truly world-class education -- but they don't. Instead, they spend all that money on things for themselves -- cars, real estate, fancy electronics, vacations, an RV, etc., etc. Abbie's needs always, ALWAYS come last for these people. And that's what bothers me the most about the Fathering Autism channel. They should honestly be ashamed of themselves.

I’m a teacher with nine years of experience and a Masters degree. I make about $54,000 a year. Abbie probably has multiple respite workers. Some of those may be students that are studying behavioral science. Usually someone with Abbie’s diagnosis would get respite 2-3 times a week. She would also have in home therapy 2-3 times a week. I imagine what they are trying to do is find a new “Wednesday” person and they probably want someone that is studying ABA therapy… I’ll also say - I agree with you about doing the best for your kid. I am a public school teacher - but my child attended a local private school. It was expensive and we whe t without vacations and new cars, and all the good stuff in order to pay for our daughter to have a strong foundation of education. I feel that I give a good quality education to my students and I think public schools are often filled with great teachers. Still - my daughters largest class was 15. My largest class is 36. I paid for her small class size because I truly believe smaller class sizes will improve this country’s academics. (Sorry I ranted…)
