Newly Single Mom of 5| Day in the Life

Welcome to Autmazing! We talk a lot about autism around here because we are a family with five kids and a mom who is autistic. We believe that autism acceptance is extremely important. We also post videos daily (or almost daily), about topics that we feel are important and sometimes there's a vlog thrown in too. We think it's important to see that being autistic is just that- another way of being human. You'll get glimpses of what's going on at the moment in our lives, usually in a little town in the midwest.
We are a family of 6, with a Mom named Cammie. Sadie is 15, Maggie is 13, Patrick is 11, James is 9, and Tessie is now 7!

    We are in Illinois, I’m not sure where y’all are but our weather has been very similar! I get midwestern vibes from y’all, forgive me if I’m wrong! Lol. I have homeschooled my boys (both have various disabilities along with autism) and we are enrolling them into schools for the first time ever, and I have no idea how you gracefully get so many kiddos ready for school and there on time every morning! I have always wanted a big family but I doubt myself with having 2 disabled children, wondering if I can. I’m so glad that your parents are supporting you during this time. I was a single mom for 5.5 years and while it is physically very difficult, the most difficult part hands down is the emotional and mental transition and exhaustion, especially as an autistic parent with disabled children, regardless the disability. It was hard for me despite becoming a single mother when my oldest was only 3 ish months old (my kids are close to being Irish twins), so I can only imagine the emotional struggle and transition you must be dealing with, but you are handling it so gracefully,

    ur such a good mama ! i hope ur doing ok i know it’s hard going thru a divorce i along time ago had just bought a home in my early 20 s we had one son and he didn’t want to be a father . i couldn’t believe it he wouldn’t help with any child support or help with the house payment i worked 2 jobs to keep a float . it was so hard i still don’t know how i did it but i did . our youngest son at 36 is now going thru a divorce his wife has unresolved issues and just stop talking to all of us and him she moved out got a apartment . i’m thankful they have no kids . but it’s not easy when he calls me in tears it hurts me i wish i could help him but all i can do is be there for him . i do cardio everyday it helps with stress and keeps me focus . even all our sons are married we help all them out in one way or another .i have the grand daughters almost every weekend ! they are so fun ❤ if i could give you any advice just make sure you take care of you or ur not good to help the kids . i’m glad ur parents help you out that’s amazing .

We can’t control what others say or do to us but we can control how we react, you are doing really well at not creating a toxic environment for your children and their father despite him breaking your heart. Stay strong and your family will survive this unexpected change in the circumstances, meanwhile apply for every bit of assistance you can access to make ends meet from where I sit you are already doing a full time job.

Yesterday someone in a local group gave us an enormous box of chicken quarters (they had a couple dozen huge boxes rejected by a grocery store because they’d made a mistake when they ordered) and they happened to set up a stand to give them away near our home. I’ve been amazed how often things like that have happened lately.

    I don't get how a man that knows he's autistic, and knows his whole family's autistic, could just upend everybody's lives after almost two decades of stability with no explanation. It strikes me as a very neurotypical way to behave. Of course, masking is a thing and autists can end up feeling that they have to behave neurotypically to fit in, but...

    Your comment about the speed that you talk is relatable. I have been told that I am a fast speaker my whole life. I have also noticed that I follow a lot of ND people (what their content is about varies) and a common comment that I see is people saying that they usually need to watch people on 1.25 speed and for those people they don't have to. I have noticed a reoccurring comment that for people with ADHD they like to watch videos on 2x speed and so with some of these videos they then slow it down a bit. I will say that my processing isn't that fast but I am usually doing something else while I am watching so that does take up some of the processing space

    I have an energetic dog as well, a Sheprador named Maisie. I went through a divorce a couple years ago as well. When I moved to AZ initially afterwards, I took time to just be me and heal and do stuff that I wanted to do. Then I met my girlfriend, together 18 months currently. I drove over to ABQ NM to meet her, dated her long distance for awhile, and then moved there myself.

    I don't know much but your ex husband if he is a ex what were his thoughts about youtube? Its none of my business but was he against being documented or being seen to the world? I may not know why he chooses to leave you. Its heart breaking. Have you asked what he thinks about your kids being seen in the world like any concerns of youtube platform? Im just curious. I mean it could be other reasons like he might have affair or maybe not comfortable being shown on youtube? I may not know his reasons but it is sad he didn't tell you why he chooses this. I will pray for you and for your children. I love watching your videos. To be honest watching your videos makes me have little Joy. Your a good mother and I love how smart your kids are. Just keep doing you. Thank you for sharing little Joy with us. To be honest when I saw the divorce video I was heartbroken. I was sad my parents also divorced it wasn't easy. But Its just sad that he didn't try to fight for the marriage. Or try to save it. So I just am disappointed in him. I pray you find a good attorney. Prayers for you and for the kids 🙏

    ​​ @Autmazing oh beautiful. Thank you for replying. Then there's something going on with him. I hope someday he will feel remorse for what he's doing. I just feel he might regret this further in the future. He will, though, indeed. But I will keep you and your kids in my prayers. I am a 4th child in my family, and my little sister is born right after me. We are 5 kids, too. My parents divorced, too. It's hard, and I understand clearly. My Mom and Dad never really loved each other. Sadly, it was an arranged marriage. Back in our country. Sadly, they both were forced to get married. By my grandparents. So it was tough. I know your story is different. Because you did love him, and I'm sure he did, too. This wasn't forced. It's just heartbreaking that he chooses not to make this work and not fight to save the marriage. BUT I want you to know I'm here and will continue to pray for you. Thank you again for sharing. I was dealing with problems in my life, too. To months ago, it hit me hard. I suffered immense depression. I JUST want to say I've always loved your videos and subscribed to your channel two years ago. I also want to apologize. Hopefully, I didn't sound rude or offensive at the beginning of my questions? I've just seen other vloggers that had that one person in their family was against youtube, which I didn't get.
