Talking about Life with an Autistic 7 Year Old

Patrick is 7 and he, like the rest of our family, is autistic. For a long time he's wanted to sit down and make a video talking about everything that's on his mind. When we got started he was feeling a little shy, but he's really wanted to do this for a long time (he's seen his big sister's sit down videos and I think he wanted to do something similar). So we chatted and laughed until he relaxed and started feeling comfortable and a little bit stimmy.

Welcome to Autmazing! We talk a lot about autism around here because as a family with at least four kids and a mom and dad on the autism spectrum we believe that autism acceptance is extremely important. We also post family vlogs daily, about our lives. You'll get glimpses of what's going on at the moment in our lives, usually in a little town in Michigan, or in the nearby city that Paul works in.

We are a family of 7, with a Mom named Cammie and a Dad named Paul. Sadie is 12, Maggie is 10, Patrick is 7, James is 5, and Tessie is now 4!

If you'd like to help us translate and transcribe our videos we would appreciate it so very much! With 5 kids and lots of appointments Cammie doesn't have very much time left over after she finishes editing videos so transcribing is slow going around here! http://www.youtube.com/timedtext_cs_p...
