Gabe is an autistic and nonspeaking teenager.
This afternoon we took a walk around the neighborhood with our golden retriever Bailey.
Gabe felt the desire to stop and dance.
He truly stops to smell the roses as they say which is one of my favorite things about him!

I am an adult woman on the spectrum. There are sounds that i find soothing. Those sounds are typically in the key of E or tones within that range. I have watch several of Gabe. Fast car is in E. Stevie Nicks’ primary key is Ee. The Christmas song his friend was singing to him was also E. I think that you will easily find even more songs for him to enjoy using this as a search parameter.

C'est vrai que Gabe est un beau garçon, il pourrait peut-être se lancer dans le mannequinat pour des photos, son physique lui permettrait certainement, y avez vous pensé ? Croyez-vous qu'il pourrait le faire ? En tous cas ce serait bien pour lui et plus de personnes pourraient profiter de son beau visage et de son look de modèle 🤔

I’m so happy you bring up the concept of “presuming competence” from his spelling sessions. I completely agree and use that when it comes to supporting my students, colleagues and their families ❤

Thank you for reminding me that I need to get my son outside. I become so afraid it’ll be elopement or aggression that I hesitate and that’s exactly what he needs. Fresh air, Sunshine. And the freedom to twirl. My son is 15 and on the spectrum. He is very much like Gabe. But ever since he hit puberty, he’s become more aggressive and frustrated. He has hit me and thrown things at me and it prevents me from wanting to take him out for fear that he’ll do that in public and someone will respond In an unwanted way. But I have to think of him first and not worry about people. Thank you. And my son thanks you.

Nicole, so wonderful to hear all the vocalizing! Vowels, humming, rhythm! Such joy! Is this more vocalizing than usual for him? I'm curious what would happen if you play the video and let him see his vocalizing? Is there anyone who will work with the language he uses to help him develop more words? He has a beautiful spirit! Whether he develops language, or communicates totally with the tools available, we continue to pray the best life for Gabe. Thank you, again, for sharing.

My son was diagnosed with Austim when he was 3yrs. From around 3 1/2yrs humming the words was his way of communicating to us. His eye contact wasn't terribly good but one day I saw him looking directly at me when I was speaking to him , I said "Can you see Mummy's mouth opening and closing when I am talking?". Within a couple of days he started saying words, then after a few weeks whole sentences. He knew everything I had been teaching him, (Even though I wasn't sure what he could or couldn't understand). He still finds it hard work in social settings and has meltdowns when things overwhelm him. He found Primary school hard a couple of the teachers had no idea how to work with him, Secondary school, well they were fantastic! They made an effort to ask us about our son regularly, to update how best to teach him. He passed 7 GCSEs and now attends the local college, studying Business Management. We are all so proud of him. I often do wonder though, what if he hadn't looked at me that day and watched my mouth moving. That little window opening opportunity between the two of us is very special to me. EDIT: He was nearly 5ys old when he started saying those first words.

He will communicate with the tools available. My nephew is so nonverbal that, once when I carried a comic book purse and he said, "You like Batman", I almost passed out. I started babbling about superheroes to him, but quickly saw in his eyes that he was gone again. Never heard a word from him since, and he's about to graduate college. The autistic brain is just wired differently.

Hello Gabe and family. I found this channel right now and was pretty strong moment for me. My angel cousin, was no verbal autistic. Sadly i lost him when he was 9 eyars old, until that day he made so much improvment, said always my name and gave me a kiss everytime i went to see him. We played and saw movies together a lot. I always wonderded how he would be when he grows... seeing Gabe now i can understand. this is so beautiful for me and my family. bless for all of you who are always by his side and a lot of love. Regards.

I 🙏 for their continued strength, patience and overall happiness. But, more than that, the love. Thank you for showing us how it’s done. I wish you all a long and happy and healthy life. ✌️ 🌹

I love how mom just let him be he’s certainly making more sounds to. I was shopping in the grocery store this evening and this little boy about 10 or 12 grand down one I’ll end up the next and back to his parents and I smiled at the Family. They smelled back, and I asked, where is the fire? And the mom smiled and replied, I know, right? I do believe your channel helped me understand that moment that I could accept that Family or walk on by and let them be invisible.

It's amazing to see the reactions of these beautiful kids to the dolphins and the dolphins are like angels on earth and communicate with the kids. They are not really in captivity as they are in the Gulf and able to leave anytime they want.
