I'm a 17 year old boy and I have high functioning autism and had many of these symptoms as a little kid. I can tell you she's an amazing kiddo and you two are great parents! Some of the misconceptions of autism are just stupid! Keep up the great work parents!

She just seems like a genius to me.

Ya most of the time autistic kid get real good in one particular thing. Like an obsessions :)

She does have tendencies. I was raised along side a brother on the spectrum. He was just like this as a baby. Now a full functioning adult. ❤️

It's a shame that people insist that she's a typical kid. Parents know when something's off esp in parents with older typical kids. They observe the kids 24x7 so they know better.

I agree. I don't know this child the way her parents do. Nobody does. So for people to say things like they think they know better is so insulting. These two people are clearly smart and connected to their child. I trust that they will figure this all out with the help of medical professionals. I think sometimes people forget that what they are seeing is a teeny tiny piece of the whole picture. It's important to remember that the people who do have that whole picture are more equipped than we are. Emma is such a sweetie!! I hope her parents find the answers they're looking for, and that other parents who come across this video do as well.

This brings back so much memories of my little girl. She did all of these things to the extreme but also didn't walk until she was 3 and is still classed as non verbal. She's now 5 and is doing amazing, she's super smart and her personality and sense of humour is just the best! She didn't look at us for a good 3 years and now her eye contact is great! She's made amazing progress in the last couple of years. It seemed so slow at first and then all of a sudden it took off and she's not stopped wanting to learn since. So if ever you're worried about what the future might hold, don't be, it's completely unpredictable and full of surprises. xx

My 4 yr old son has Autism. He walks on his toes, not saying any words, he makes eye contact when he wants so it's occasionally. He play alone, runs back and forth all day, but is very smart. He know what things are and does, he jus not talking. His behavior changes ALOT. But I heard children with autism become super smart as they get older and I really do believe it. My son made a dramatic progress this year than the last 2 years so I'm proud of that.

She is a beautiful lucky girl, she has wonderful parents.

I have high functioning autism and ADHD and anxiety and depression and learning disabilities and asthma and I am 19 and I graduated from high school in June 8th 2019 and I understand your daughter because I have high functioning autism

I wish people would be more understanding. Autism is such a massive spectrum and there are so many different “symptoms” But by people saying “my kid lined things up and didn’t have autism” “my child never looked at me and they didn’t have autism” makes it so much more difficult to VALIDATE what atypical kids have to go through which may postpone a much needed diagnosis!!! There is nothing wrong with pointing these things out!! A video like this might help someone to notice little things that might prompt a doctors visit. And in the end if it turns out your child doesn’t have autism fine. But if they did it still doesn’t matter there’s nothing wrong with it anyway :) It’s so much harder especially for girls because they don’t fit into the stereotypes. So thank you for posting this!! This will help so many people!

Totally agree! I am a mother of 5 and was a childcare provider for years. Yes, most of these symptoms can be totally normal behaviour. However, when a child exhibits more than one these, it warrents investigation. Common illnesses are a great analogy, every sore throat doesn't mean strep, but a sore throat and fever looks suspicious and you certainly wouldn't discourage a trip to the Pediatrician to check it out. You are right, ppl don't seem to understand the large spectrum associated with these disorders. Every autistic child isn't the poster child that is so commonly associated with autism. There are many children undiagnosed because they fall very low on the spectrum. These children often struggle on some level, and the parents are usually made to believe they just have "difficult" children. They are misdiagnosed with other disorders quite frequently, such as ADHD, and put on unessasary medications. This doesn't mean that no child truly has ADHD, that all children with any of there behaviour patterns are autistic, or that some children aren't truly just difficult children. But, the picture associated with autismn needs to change and parents need to stop being discouraged from having their children checked out if they feel they need to.

My oldest when he was about her age use to line up things too and even sometimes by the size of the object so you're right but now my second son , he isn't doing that but also isn't making no eye contact but does play with other children so its always hard to not to suspect they have autism 😬

Autism is becoming so common. I have a baby with autism and the first one in our family and husbands. Now with special classes and all therapies... I realized that in my baby's generation is very very common. So many little kids out there with autism. Scares me what the future is going to be for them without us. The parents!!! We gotta stay 💪... Im eating healthier and working out now. Gotta live long enough to be there for my baby❤❤❤

I have a severely non-verbal autistic son now 22. When you've met a person with autism, you've met one person, they are very individual, one size does not fit all! This is what I've learnt on my very long journey with my dear son who I absolutely love and adore . Helpful video though with loving parents x

Your daughter is so cute. My 6 year old is high functioning autistic. Thanks to his delayed speech we read to him for 60 minutes daily. He now can read my books, eye contact improved a lot, can remain seated for half an hour. Thanks for advanced research we have therapy that can improve autism a lot

I have no children but to me your daughter seems very smart!

Several of these things were evident in my son when he was little (he's 16 now). He loved the ABCs and became very attached to a piece of quilt fabric that he found at the store--so I bought it and put it on the back of a small quilt that he slept with for years. He also lined things up or had quirky rituals, especially for putting away his shoes--back in the box, with the lid, then covered with a silk scarf, and a nylon strap with a buckle (I think it came from the changing table); wrapped up like a present. He had lots of verbal delays, echolalia, and confused all his pronouns, but with speech therapy and some physical therapy, most people don't realize he's on the spectrum. He's funny, creative, and super smart.

Your daughter is so blessed to have you two as her parents. You are observant, mindful and so loving&gentle towards her. ❤️

She’s perfect in every way. She’s healthy and happy and very blessed to have loving and caring parents. There’s no such thing as normal because everyone has their own version of normal. Don’t set limits for her or hold her back from experiencing life as a child. This is a new adventure which was chosen specifically for you guys. God bless you and this beautiful child. Choose happy.

This is incredibly helpful! Thank you for making this video. My son was just diagnosed ASD and also does the repetitive walking around stuff, rocking back and forth, spinning, and doing his own thing(exactly like she’s doing with wood chips! 😂) at parks. I hear her expressing a lot so that’s awesome! My son is 22 months and non verbal so I’m hoping his language will come soon!

I commend you so much for catching on to those first signs of autism. That early intervention is key!

I also have a son with autism... they're blessing.. im proud to have him..

Hi! I am a pediatric occupational therapist who works with children on the autism spectrum. This was a great video! The “stims” you mention are actually her seeking vestibular input. The sensory nerves in our inner ears are EXTREMELY sensitive. Our kids with autism seek that input to help calm their sensory system :) it’s GREAT that you guys got her a swing. But I will mention that linear swinging (back and forth) is calming and rotary (spinning) is alerting. So if she is already in a heightened state of arousal, you’d want to do linear swinging :) your little girl is precious and soooooo smart!!

Early TV consumption is discussed to cause attentional problems in children. and second remark. Also children have the right of privacy.

They do but there is a range. Early diagnosis leads to better success in every aspect of life. Autism specifically often comes with a ton of knowledge in a specific area and a learning delay in others. Many symptoms do seem normal which is why it's important to pay close attention. Depending on severity, late diagnosis can lead to them being in special ed classes, away from their typically developing peers.

Thank you for making this video! I'm sure a lot of parents wonder about this when their kids are toddlers, I for one did, and now understand a little bit better what to look for.

Emma is so sweet 🥺. I’m currently being screened for Aspergers and ADHD because my parents missed many of the signs growing up, because a lot of them just seem like cute quirks. Of course Autism is a spectrum condition and no two people are the same, and I am talking as if I already have my diagnosis. However I am studying this for my university dissertation, and there is so much information out there these days! I’m unsure if you have looked at videos from people who are actually on the spectrum, as well as parents of autistic people, however you might find it very encouraging and rewarding to find experiences from actual autistic people, because with age and time we often do learn how to express ourselves and interact better! I’m not very good at reading expressions but I could see that talking about your daughters differences to other toddlers seems to upset you (which it is okay and normal to feel that way) so I thought that maybe my comment might be helpful, as messy and unorganised as it is. Autistic people may struggle to communicate with you in the ways that neurotypical people do, especially as children, however the hidden thought processes are still very much okay usually. For example, it might seem that she cannot express her affection or empathy and seem inattentive, but often we are experiencing it and are just not expressing it. She will be aware of the presence of other people but doesn’t realise instinctively that she is suppose to turn and acknowledge them. I’m trying to sound polite and give you info that might make you feel encouraged but I don’t want you guys to think you’ve not done your research! I think you’re doing a fantastic job, you’ve got her checked and into therapy at the prime time for learning and cognitive development - the younger the brain, the more It can be taught. Emma can lead a wonderful, normal life, especially when the right tools and patience are there for her (like you seem to being doing a good job at from what we have seen). Keep going! She’s going to be okay 💖

Rarely acknowledges us when we call her name, spins around, plays with the wood chips , is obsessed with numbers, her speech is delayed (she os 2 and a half and doesn’t say momma or dadda yet. We are going to get her evaluated soon. It’s been hard to admit that my daughter may have this diagnosis.

We will be sure to watch more of your videos. Thank you for sharing. You have a beautiful daughter by the way .

My son is 13 months old & does the “zoning out” stare once in a while.. but ive seen no other sign of autism yet.. this video was helpful & ill definitely keep an eye out for any other repetitive behavior thank you!

My son's 2 1/2 and he has autism. We had the same issue with him not responding to his name so we used mini M&M's. We would give him two or three at a time and make him a call off the colors one of the time and make sure that he has made eye contact before he received anything. We would take the M&M and put it up to our eyes make his eyes follow the M&M to our eyes eventually he became a pro at that and we started incorporating sign language which he has made amazing progress in signs like "all done", "for me" and let's not forget "more" that's his favorite sign. My wife's brother has autism and her mother is a pro she directed us to early intervention which helped us out more than ever.

Obviously some commenters on here are more concerned with trying to shame parents for thinking their child has something wrong. The earlier autism is diagnosed, the sooner you can start finding alternative ways to teach your child and overcome challenges of autism. Its not just a diagnosis where you blame all their problems on the condition and say well that's how it is. If you find out how to engage them early on they have the best chance of leading a normal life and attending school, having a job,etc. If left to develop without special treatment they may never develop certain skills needed. Also some peope grow out of autism so to speak. If later on a person doesnt have so many typical autism features then the diagnosis can be revoked. Theres really no harm in pursuing a diagnosis and extra learning resources and support groups for parents. I know it's not very apparent in this video, but for most autistic kids their quirks can really become hard to deal with. for example, a child may obsessively tear up pages out of books or crush food into tiny pieces. Many have no sense of danger and will climb onto things, run away from parents or run into the street well past the age when kids normally stop those things. Some hit themself in the head with things, tantrums can be many times worse than a normal toddler's. I wish I could remove all the comments that say 'well MY child did one of those things and they arent autistic, so you must be wrong'. Any person can have some traits without being diagnosed with autism. Only when many issues are present at once does it become a concern.

He is my blessing from God considering he was born on my daddy’s 6 month date of his passing. He has helped my heart heal as it was shattered into a million pieces and he is just so loved by many even if he pushes others away when they try to get close to him. I know God will take care of him as will we 💙🙏🏼

My youngest son coordinated all toys , food, etc and he's brilliant 23 y/o I pray for Emma

You guys did great at recognizing that things were a.little different with your daughter!! Well done!

Oh my goodness I came across this video because my youngest was just diagnosed BUT his sister is 15 and also autistic and watching this just brought back so many memories of HER soooo much like your daughter. Beautiful minds. My daughter is 15 and absolutely amazing despite her struggles.

Thank you so much 😊

Great parents to understand and accept their child difference

She's a sweetie. It's hard at that stage when the eye contact and interaction and communication is hard going. Keep at it and you will be seeing how she blossoms. Please read The Siege and Exiting Nirvana...wonderful books that will help understand the autistic mind. You are clearly fantastic parents

You guys are such a cute family! I can tell how much love you guys have for each other. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Trank you, this is great. My son was so clearly autistic from the very beginning, but was misdiagnosed and we paid a lot for that. Even got wrong medication. He suffered from mobbing and was misunderstood constantly. Diagnosed at 16y. Please look for Tony Atwood here on KZread. And I finally realized, that I am autistic too. I‘m 50.

Emma is adorable! She's beautiful! Lots of love and hugs from South Africa

My middle son has Autism and a lot of similar behaviors. There is a lot of hope. There are a lot of signs as well as many differences between girls and boys on the spectrum. My son the song that calmed him was Elmo's world but I sang it more like a soft lullaby and made it Gavin's World and had it fit him.

My 4 year old son is EXACTLY LIKE HER! 🤗 he has severe ASD and is non verbal. They truly are little geniuses

I admire you guys so much, I seriously love watching your videos. ☺️

She is so much like my son 😊 he’s 2.5 and has his evaluation later this month. They are such secret agent geniuses. It’s like I can tell that there is so much going on in there and he just doesn’t express it outwardly. Lining things up and organizing by color, size, shape. Becoming deep in thought and becoming overstimulated by various things. Their brains are so Interesting 🥰

My son was just like Emma, but I intervened a lot. When my son would put anything in a line , I would come in and remove one object from the line. My son would be so mad at me, but I did not give up. After , a few weeks he finally stopped putting things in a line. To get my sons attention , I would say his name a lot and randomly and get him to look at me. Again , after few weeks and not giving up he started to pay attention to his name. So, basically I made my son get out of that bubble he was in and get him out of his comfort zone. He will be turning 6 years old soon and the only thing he has is a speech delay, but he is picking up the speech quickly. Intervening early is always best . Good luck ! .

Thank u for sharing your experience... I really appreciate it 💝, my son is autistic too and I thought that it's okay to put anything in a line and I thought it's just the way he played as a child

I think you've gone about it wrong. As an adult suspected to be on the spectrum, interfering with these kinds of things creates huge anxiety and mistrust. How would you like for someone bigger than you to come into your bedroom every time you put away your clothes or shoes and they unfold everything and lay them on your bed or every time you wash dishes someone comes and sprinkles dirt all over them? It's the same thing. Eventually you will give up on creating a happy space for yourself too if every time you did, someone messed it up.
