I have 2 children on the spectrum, a girl and a boy both nonverbal. They’re teenagers now and ever since maliit pa sila ako ang nag aalaga at advocate nila. I’m a polio survivor at walang malapit na kamag anak dito sa Amerika kaya lahat kinakaya ko kasama ng 2 ko pang maliliit na mga anak ang pagpapalaki sa kanila. Ang tatay nila merong mental illness at addiction kaya madalas absent sa parenting at responsibilities. Pero kinakakaya ko dahil meron akong nakikita sa 2 autistic kong mga anak. They are so genuine and loving kahit pamana ang dami dami nilang hirap pinagdaraanan. I look at them as special breed of humans na di pa natin naintindihan masyado sa ngayon pero balang araw ay mauunawan natin ang reason at purpose nila sa mundo. Isa sa mga anak ko ay minsan aggressive dahil di nya masyado ma express ang kanyang sarili ngunit tinutulungan namin hanggang sa aming makakaya. I learned to live moment by moment everyday. I take it as a measure of faith, perseverance, and resilience sa mga magulang at kapamilya ng mga taong autistic. I have more days that I am gripped with fear of the future ngunit palagi akong pinaalala ng Panginoon na it is not my job to control these children’s future. Rather it is my responsibility at the moment to love them, care for them with everything in my power and He will take care of the rest. Dito ako kumukuha ng lakas at sana sa mga pamilya dyan na nahihirapan ng masyado sa araw araw intindihin at gawan ng solusyon ang mga challenges na kanilang kinakaharap, sana wag kayong bumitaw at laban lang. It is a beautiful journey of love in spite of the seeming pain. Be strong!

Crying while watching this🥹 You were a good father Sir, the love and care you gave to them is what made you a good father🫶🏽🤗❤️

I can’t help my tears from falling because I also have a nephew who is special child and I truly agree with Martin that we don’t need to say sorry and make excuses for what the special child has doing because the society needs to know that they belong to us. Thank you Martin for venting your inner soul Re: Santino god bless your heart abundantly.❤️👏👍🙏

Parents love of his or her kids is Unconditional Love 💕 Forever ❤️❤️👪👪👪

God bless you Martin Nievera you are a great father in your own

Martin was really right. I am taking care of an autistic lady she is now 42 years old, non verbal. Dito sa America, very supportive ang government for this kind of case. The parents are hands on, however, one thing is bothering them, what if they are gone, which I could understand dahil kahit ako ay isang caregiver yun din ang iniisip. Taking care of a special person is very challenging. There is that kind of feeling that at the end of the day there is fulfillment in your heart.

You're a great man Sir Martin. God bless you❤❤❤

Martin, God gifted you a very special child because you have the biggest heart.

Naiyak ako. Iba talaga ang parent's love❤️

Martin alam ko ang pakiramdam sa sinasabi nyo dahil may tatlo akong anak na nasa spectrum. Iba iba ang level nila. Yun din ang fear naming mag asawa kung sino ang kakalinga sa kanila sa aming pagtanda.🙏🙏🙏

Salute to you Sir MArtin!!Can't help but cry!!

I feel you Martin 🥺 sending love and light to all the kids on the spectrum 💗💗💗

God. BLess you more and your family. You sent a very powerful message, very well said thank you 😊

Thank you for sharing your story, it's not easy to raise a child; let alone a "special child". Parents like us who has "special child", we are blessed because God gave them to us for a reason. But w/ God's guidance, prayers..our children will overcome whatever challenges they'll face.

@@emilio1969 The word "abnormal" is such a derogatory term. A child who's in the spectrum isn't "abnormal", their brain is wired differently than yours; but it doesn't mean they're "abnormal".

Made me cry 😭

God bless you martin

Yes! God is ALWAYS there with you and family. Hang in there…you are doing an awesome job, just facing life’s many challenges. Will keep you and family in my prayers.🙏🙏🙏 Please keep on singing…so soothing to my heart. God Bless you po…from the beautiful snowy mountains of Colorado, USA. ♥️🙏☕️🎵🎶

Our GOD has a good purpose and reasons for everything HE created. Trust HIM and ultimately glorify our God and enjoy HIM forever for HE is our Great ,loving Creator 🙏🏻 Thanks for sharing this challenge Mr. Nievera.

Good job Martin ❤

of coures... pag binigay sa atin talagang kailngan nating tangapin at unawain at mahalin sila bilang magulang... totoo yan ang fear is pag nawala ang Parents..advantage pag mayaman kasit papano. e pag mahirap lang pano na kaya.? nakaka Sad isipin.

I can definitely relate to martin's fear, "what will happen to my child when im gone? " coz i have a special child too, a down syndrome. I think that its every parents fear.

Napakasincere ng sinabi ni Sir Martin. We may not understand because we’re not in their shoes but all we need in understanding and simply be kind. Yun Lang talaga. People willl throw judgement, and don’t be sorry about it...I salute Sir Martin how he own up his mistakes, and his two grown up sons was raised well by Pops and him. Even Ms Pops loved Santino.

Amazing

2:14 I think part of living with it is to inform others that your child has special needs, so that they wouldn't think he's just 'spoiled' or 'misbehaving' Don't apologize, but just inform. Mas open minded na mga tao ngayon, that's why we can openly talk about these things already. The 'stigma' is getting more and more diminished. And to be fair, one big reason for that is kris aquino. '90s palang open na sya sa ADHD ni josh, kaya mas nagkaroon ng awareness mga tao re kids/people with special needs

i have 2 kids with special needs and i love them to bits❤️

❤️❤️❤️

good one Martin

ABS should bring the Martin Nieverra Show back

I know this guy

I've been taking care of an autistic child for 10 yrs and it's difficult for me to leave him, coz I would also ask , what will happen to him if I'm not the one taking care of him

Rz😭👍👍

They need understanding and it’s a very rude thing to make funny of them

'Kuya' martin (jolina). Tama yan, kuya/ate. Very respectful pero hindi 'honorific.' Di naman nila amo o kliente pero hilig mag-ma'm/sir ng mga tao lol

Lahi ata ni martin yung merong special. Kasi mga anak nya din kay pops diba? 😢

Santino your son has special child?

Its ur mess...u must say...its ur self

Martin's lucky, Santino too. May pera pamilya nila to help manage/address his ASD. Pambayad doctor/experts, therapies etc. Even resources for Satino's future etc. They're still better off, despite this challenge in their lives

Martin if you’re saying it changed your life Sana Hindi ka nalang kumuha ng Iba pang babae- am not saying stay with Katrina (she’s engaged with Jerome) or stay with pops- Sana nag remain single ka nalang after you ruined your marriage and after santino, also Hindi magandang example sa mga anak mo- ang salimuot ng Buhay mo- you never learned- just saying, non of my business.
