Thx
I just noticed that Simon has learned the words “mama” and “help”.
Yes! He is learning quite a few words
@@7Aheadfamily I wouldn’t be surprised that Ezra pulled the fire alarm
My favorite thing about going to a museum is the floor projectors and the food place in the museum it’s so cool the fish tank projector that you step on to catch the fish it is my favorite
@@Kenziescreativecorner9 Or he opened a fire door without knowing what it is yet. I seem to remember that one day when I was growing up that my sister was very close to exiting through a fire door at a Marshall’s in Massachusetts when we were shopping there. Luckily my mother noticed what she was about to do and stopped her before she could open the door and set off the alarm. I think this was my sister’s first time seeing a fire door. She has level one/mild autism and this was back in the 1980s. She was no longer on a toddler leash at that point but she still had some tendency to wander off and open and close doors (although she was already getting better about this at that point).
She was a bit older than Ezra at this point (possibly as old as eleven or twelve, but she might have been as young as nine). In other words this can happen to almost anyone one time (if fire doors are involved instead of a traditional fire alarm handle) but after the first (and possibly second) time(s) it is less likely to be an honest mistake. Ezra set off the alarm twice in a single day (at least one time by opening a fire door (the video is somewhat ambiguous on what happened the first time)). Therefore this behavior needs to be nipped in the bud as soon as possible to prevent it from becoming a regular pattern of behavior with the consequences that may result from a continuation of said behavior. The most mild consequence might be a ban (either temporary or permanent) from visiting a particular location imposed by the management of said location.Last night in a phone conversation I mentioned to my parents what I saw in this video yesterday (without mentioning any specific video or channel) and they were curious about whether a temporary or permanent ban from visiting the location was imposed as a result. I have occasionally heard of people receiving lifetime bans from hotels, resorts, etc. for even less than this.
@@Kenziescreativecorner9 I have never seen anything like this in person but it looks like it would be interesting.
What a fantastic place! I would love to go there! I like how Ezra loved the water!
❤️❤️❤️
I love watching you guys. Simon is SO smart! I loved watching you guys visit the parks and everything. Keep up the amazing videos. My fave family on RUclips ❤
Thank you so much for watching and commenting. That means a lot ❤️.
I love museum(even though the place would be too loud), Ezra always having fun in his own way, and Mark loves reading
Yeah! ❤️😊❤️
I liked looking at the dinosaurs at the science museum one town over from where I lived when I was growing up.
Yes! That one is really cool!
Second leash in the car. Might be helpful if you guys have a sensory bag for Ezra were you can have his leash, noise, canceling, headphones, his cables/other toys he likes, safe foods and his AAC device so he can practice. Does it help if Ezra gets out some of his energy before doing activities. It seems like his adhd wasn’t letting him find an activity for long. If you guys were aloud to go in and out of the building maybe have short sensory brakes like that would help him.
I love the kids playing. I hope the people were understanding and not rude.
Yessssssssssssssss it's fu.n
What an awesome place! But major sensory overload. I think I would only last a minute or two in there without noise cancelling headphones and sunglasses.
Yeah. Thanks for sharing ❤️❤️❤️
Poor Ezra wanted to escape. You'll have to take him again with his leash and headphones so he can have a better experience. Looks like an awesome museum though.
Yeah. We will. ❤️❤️❤️
I remember when I was 5 years old and I pulled a big red button that said STOP and my mom got very angry and I didn't know why😂😂
That makes sense. I am sure Ezra didn’t know that those were emergency exits
Hi guys ,
We have something similar called Eureka in England ,
My autistic grandson has a meltdown if we leave his favourite sensory light room ❤
He adores it .
Ezra & Simon are loving it 😍
That’s great! Thanks for sharing
Hahahaha. With all the available toys, Ezra found his own... It seemed he had a good time.
Yes he did. 😊😊😊
I love the recent videos of Simon wanting to be the star in the show. Have you noticed him having less meltdowns as he is better able to communicate?
He has certainly learned a lot more vocabulary lately. His meltdowns are about the same.
My kids, autistic and not, much prefer the local science museum over the "kids museum" - the noise is overwhelming, and the science museums have so much interactive stuff to.
True! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Kinda similar to what happened to me. So there was this one kid at my school who had severe autism (He was 19) he had a meltdown and he ended up pulling the fire alarm. He’s at a hospital now.
Thank you for your comment❤️
This looks like so much fun! I would like to say first that Marie definitely touched a higher fly than the machine registered. That would have frustrated me and I just wanted to let her know. What book was Mark reading? He seems to have gotten kind of quieter lately. Ezra, Simon, and Marie looked like they had a blast! That was weird how the fire alarm went off and nobody moved… I guess if it had gone off for real the sprinklers would have gone off as well.
Yeah, it wasn’t a fire alarm, just a door that had an alarm on it if you leave. 😊 Mark is reading a Brandon Sanderson book. He loves those. 😊 And yes Marie did Jim pretty high. 😊
What a fun museum!! I’m sure you two were exhausted that night but it’s so good for others to see Simon and Ezra out in public. Does that museum have sensory hours? It would help with crowds/noise.
Funny, you should ask, that was actually during a time just for families of kids with autism. 😊 as you can see however, it was very crowded.
@@7AheadfamilyOh wow! 😂 Well that’s still cool to see that many families with autistic children having fun together.
Yeah, it was a pretty wild adventure. 😊
Ooh! That is a no-no! I know about fire and emergency alarms! We NEVER pull them unless there's an ACTUAL emergency or when they are being tested!
Very true. We are still teaching Ezra that
If this was the result of opening and closing doors (a behavior commonly seen in autism (according to books I have read and some videos I have seen)) instead of actually pulling the alarm then it was probably accidental. He probably didn’t know what he was doing.
Over the years I have also seen some people older than Ezra (including some adults) do this when they are in a hurry to leave a building and apparently didn’t take the time to read the “Alarm will sound” notice. The vast majority of these people probably knew what they were doing (or they should have). Therefore it would be a good idea for Ezra’s therapist to begin introducing him to some of the more advanced social rules (the major “dos and don’ts”) in various situations so events like this don’t continue to occur. This is important because Ezra is seven years old which is (legally speaking) considered to be the “age of reason” in many States. It is at this age that prosecutors can begin to use phrases such as “Mens Rea” in connection with actions that are considered unlawful and presumed to be deliberate. When it comes to defense there is the “diminished capacity defense” but this may or may not always apply when common sense suggests that it would.
I should mention that I am not an attorney (and probably never will be) but I have read a few books from the legal section of Barnes and Noble over the years and I have seen both Legally Blonde movies and I watch both the “Legal Eagle” and “Law by Mike” RUclips channels (as well as Steve Lehto’s channel) so I would like to think that I know a few of the basics.
That just about sums up my observations on the subject of this video for the time being.
Thank you so much for your insight. It is very helpful. I am sure that ezra just likes opening the doors.
I'm putting the twins in a STEM program at the Ecotarium They have fun every time they go. There
That sounds great
That looks fun . Did Ezra like it? Emmalina tends to like music . She likes it loud but only certain songs. She likes alot of things my oldest daughter likes or puts on and she likes some of my rock music and 80s like Rob zombie, korn, Metallica lolz
Sounds fun! Ezra did have fun! He was running Around laughing a lot of the time.
7 ahead family please don’t try fire Alarm 🚨 next time 😊😂❤
Right ❤️❤️
4:02 Off topic but that backflip was epic
It was very cool!💕💕
My friend’s brother, who also has level 3 Autism, pulled the fire alarm at school one year.
When I was in school back in the 1980s (in Massachusetts) this was the one of the two or three main things that we were told every year of Elementary School on the first day of every year to absolutely never do. This was mentioned in an assembly in which it was stated that it violates local and state laws and that it may violate federal laws as well and that the penalties (including suspension,expulsion,fines and/or jail time (or at the very least time in a juvenile reformatory) would inevitably occur regardless of who someone’s parents were or any other circumstances) are quite severe. I have not looked up the relevant statutes but if it does violate federal law then there would likely be no minimum age or any provisions in the law addressing whether or not the person pulling the alarm has a disability. This would mean that if charges are filed that putting together a convincing and effective legal defense would be quite difficult (to say the least).
This is why it is extremely important for Ezra’s family to make sure that he never does this again beginning with always using his toddler leash in public and then letting Ezra’s therapist know about what happened so he can immediately begin to learn about the most important dos and don’ts of behavior in a public place (beginning with avoiding the types of negative behaviors that could have major legal repercussions).
In addition if charges are filed in connection with this or any future actions they will need to obtain competent legal counsel at once (e.g. immediately).
Yeah, it happens. 😊
Yeah, this wasn’t a fire alarm, just a door that had an alarm to it if you leave. But, yes, we still need to help Ezra not do that. 😊
@@7Aheadfamily That’s good to know. When I first saw the video I was slightly confused by the title.
Yeah, we need to modify that
Amazing first power in voice
Thanks
I told you ...one moon,one venus...
The car in the rain???
Venus??!!
ok
i use to hear the fire alarm went off at school when i was a student
❤️❤️❤️
Parrot ...the next gift
You think we should give Ezra a parrot?
It's way too noisy there for me. I have misophonia and hyperacousis. I also have tinnitus and the noise of that video even ramped that up.
It was very loud. I wished I had brought ear plugs
My son John pulled a fire alarm years ago when we went to a Halloween party at our local fire station. Oops!
It happens
He’s lucky that charges were not filed. The legal consequences could have been quite severe (including fines and jail time (or at the very least time in a juvenile reformatory (aka reform school (or ‘juvie’))).
@@thomasschoeck9080 he was 5 years old. Why the bloody heck would they charge a little autistic child? He was just a little boy and didn't know any better. Would you take a small child to court over that? It's not like he was a bad teenager who set off the fire alarm by smoking cannabis in the loo.
@@megangreene3955 No I would not take him to court. In your comment above it was not clear how old he was at the time.
If the laws do not take age or disability into account they should be modified in a way that avoids prosecutions in situations like this while preventing people who do know better (such as the average teenager or adult) from endangering the public by sending out emergency services on false calls. Also, the post ending with the word “Oops” did not mention that your son is autistic (it only mentioned that the event happened at a Halloween party and that it happened years ago at a local fire station). Also the usual public safety considerations don’t apply to the specific situation that you mentioned because the firefighters (or other employees) at the station no doubt simply turned off the alarm realizing there was no fire. Also if this happened in a small town with only one fire station it might not have even been necessary to call other stations to prevent other firefighters from being dispatched unnecessarily. Given his age he probably didn’t understand what a fire alarm was and as a result no crime was committed. Typically for a crime to be committed an act needs to be deliberate. As mentioned in the movie Legally Blonde if there is no Mens Rea (or no vicious will) there is typically no crime. Unfortunately statutes do not always take this into account and when they don’t they should be modified.
If he were at least in Elementary School (first grade or above) it would likely make a difference legally speaking (due to the presumption of Mens Rea by that age). When I was in school there was a legal presumption that if you were in first grade (or above) that you knew better. I know that this was the case when I was in school because the legal consequences of pulling fire alarms were not mentioned in preschool or kindergarten but they were mentioned in first grade and every grade after that.
Also I have never heard of anyone preschool age (in any state or country) being prosecuted for this because before the age of six or seven one is usually presumed to not know any better.
You seem to really know your stuff on this subject. 😊
he is in distress.. its to loud. can you try to cover his ear with something
Yes. You’re right. We forgot his noise canceling headphones. That was our mistake.
My friends daughter (adhd, autistic) recently pulled the fire alarm at school. They gave her 3 days suspension, I day of iss, a hearing, an emergency iep, and 10 days of daep which is Texas version of juvie at school! She’s 7!
Texas schools refuse to recognize hidden disabilities or support them properly.
I loved the Simon cam!!!
That is crazy! If she has autism she should be treated with patience! Wow
@@7Aheadfamilythey don’t. Our kids are verbal and brilliant so the public schools don’t ever want to make any accommodations or support their needs, even though they have many. It was awful for my son so I homeschool him.
So sorry you have such a difficult time working with the school. We have found that there is often a lot of politics and struggles dealing with schools as well.
@@7Aheadfamily Simon is talking and understanding so much now. It’s so fun to watch!
Also, aside from opening the doors, Ezra did wonderful at decently staying with the family at the museum. I bet he loved having the freedom to explore and find little areas to hide out from the chaos.
Texas is so backwards. I know, I lived there.
Happy gift....the nose???
♥️
7 Ahead - I know neurotypical kids dont like bedtime but they love it as teenagers & adults due to a lot of challenging work throughout the day tiring them out . Is that the same case for people on the autism spectrum ?
Great question! I think it probably just depends on the person. Simon is doing therapy from nine in the morning until seven at night, and sometimes he’s really tired and OK with going to bed, but other times he still just wants to stay up and play even though he’s tired. Ezra he usually does pretty well with bedtime, things to his bed, but if we didn’t have his bed, it would be a struggle I am sure. It will be interesting to see how they are as teenagers. 😊
@@7Aheadfamily OK , My future long term career is to become a special education teacher im only a 16 almost 17 year old ( My Birthday : Nov 23 2023 ) Junior in school where do I start ?
@@7Aheadfamily Where do I start in becoming a sped teacher ?
That's a great ambition. You can gain experience by volunteering While you are in school. ❤️
Partial interaction
Yes. We got some interaction for Ezra
The answer..Ezra..magic room
He liked the majic room
Ezra probably does not know what going on😢😂is
True. He is probably over stimulated and excited at the same time!
Hey guys
Hello!
Rain???why?
I know! Simon was so funny!
COOLIN-Off in Utah??
Yep! It is. 😊
@18:56
Can i meet you someday i have autism tooooo i live in columbus ohio
Yeah, maybe someday! We might do a meet and greet down the road. 😊
Is as in reality...somehow
ok
😊

Intrerupted ...oh words
Words are hard
The enemy now ..chorus..a new information to kill you..the death"s room..
Santa chorus miaw
Venus...for example a good sleep..ave...Moon

❤️❤️❤️
Uraaaanuus is heereee
🤔
What does Simon have up his ankles ?
Are they in his shoes
Those are his ankle braces to help keep rotation of his feet. We made a video about it here if you’re curious. ruclips.net/video/pMxUlKdtPmg/видео.html
@@7Aheadfamily
Thank you I will watch after work x
THANKS. let us know what you think of it
Interpretation error...patience
It’s ok
Uraaaanuuuuussss

Heeelpppp...death rooommm
That would be a little dark for a kids museum
Viroses room

Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️😊❤️
Iiii balls...hah?
Both Ezra and Simon liked the balls
So he pulled the fire bell or not I don’t understand
He set off the alarm, by opening the emergency exit door.
@@7Aheadfamily oh was he alone
Great question! No. He was just running away from us and we were trying to chase him and didn't catch up with him in time. ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily was he in a good mood at that time?
Not really. He was kind of agitated. Thank you for asking. 😊❤️
Pulling the fire alarm when there’s no fire is considered to be a false alarm. Fire alarms can be used to alert people when there’s real fire or emergencies, and evacuate. 🔥🚨🧯
…wow
The possible false alarm charge might require intent depending on local, state or federal laws but I don’t know this for a fact because I have not read the relevant statutes.
Other possible charges including disorderly conduct and disturbing the peace might not require intent (again depending on the details of the relevant statutes).
If any of these statutes do not require intent then they should be modified so that a crime is only committed if there is intent.
Yeah, this wasn’t actually a fire alarm, just a door that had an alarm to it if you leave, which makes it more difficult for a child like Ezra to understand why you can’t leave through that door. We’re working on that. 😊
❤️❤️❤️
