Autistic Teen Practices Shooting Hoops at Adaptive Basketball Court with Moms!

Gabe is an autistic and non speaking teen! He loves basketball! We found an adaptive basketball court that has different size hoops for him to practice on until he is ready for the regulation size hoop! Today we worked on shooting hoops from afar, passing, and dribbling!

    First off, I'm laughing because Gabe is wanting to dance on the court!! That's the kind of kid I was too 🤣!! I did like to shoot hoops too though. But what a great dance area 😂!! I would do the same thing in grocery stores down the isles. Those seemed like good dance area's too.

    Gabe's just doing what the rest of want to do when someone is talking to us, and we'd rather not listen, pretending to give a hoot. How awesome would it be to just spin away from someone that's decided that scrolling through their phone, while you're trying to have a conversation is more important? Hey, "You do your thing, I'll do mine! This one is for Gabe!" He makes my heart so full of joy.

    Honestly though, he doesn't enjoy playing ball, he'd rather be dancing. You can tell he's not into this at all. I get it's good exercise and training but I'm not sure why him playing basketball is that important to them. Is it because he's a boy? He just doesn't like basketball that much and that's OK. There's no reason to keep pushing him to do this. he can do all types of things instead of playing basketball.

    ​@BsTheLadynred If you follow them. You would know he Does do many other things. Yes Dancing is his favorite, but having him doing a wide variety is very very helpful in eye hand coordination, muscle growth,and socializing. These Moms are always taking him places and working with him. It's very important for growth. Many parents find themselves overwhelmed and feeling hopeless . This family is Aces and Gabes story has helped so many people !! ❤❤❤❤❤

    @@BsTheLadynred it looks like he doesnt enjoy it because of his condition he loses focus very easily. so basically what you're saying is they should never try anything and let him miss out on possible new hobbies because it looks like he doesn't enjoy it. people like you would do more harm than good in reality. I think his moms will know if it really doesn't catch on.

    I’m always amazed in some of the videos like at concerts when he seems to love dancing. He’s spinning so fast and is totally coordinated and seems to have no balance issues when he stops. Meanwhile I’m sitting at home watching him dance getting dizzy.
