My son is named Ezra, and is also autistic. When do you stop feeling so bad around the holidays? I try to do all the Christmas things and talk about Santa etc but he just doesn't care about it, and I'm not sure that he ever will. Instead of it being a happy time I'm just emotionally distraught and feel bad for him that he doesn't understand.
I feel for you. I’ve learned that sometimes it’s better to just create your own traditions instead of putting expectations on the kids that are culturally defined. For example, we don’t really do Santa Claus at all. It doesn’t really work with our family. But we do other things like decorating cookies, which the kids can really get into. and even the guests are going to look different like you saw this video. I’m sorry it’s a hard time for you. Know that you’re not alone. And maybe you can start your own traditions that are uniquely yours and can work better with what your child likes to do and enjoys
I understand exactly what you mean. It's a bummer when my a family member gives my son a gift and he shows no emotion about it.
Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️
Hi🎉 marry Christmas
I love that you gave him what he loves and not what people expect that he would love. Excellent parenting!
Our kids have different interests than neurotypical kids and they should get what they really like.
So true ❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 ❤️
I love Christmas
us too! Did you get any good presents this year?
It’s also good that Simon recognizes the Bluey character immediately (or nearly so). Due to my right hemisphere condition (due to a stroke around the time of my birth) I still struggle with 3D to 2D conversions (and vice versa). For example I can sculpt objects out of clay (or similar materials) but I struggle with realistic painting and drawing even now (well into my 40s).
Thank you for sharing. You have definitely been through a lot. ❤️
Oh, how wonderful! Ezra looks ecstatic when he opens his gifts. 🥰 Merry Christmas to all the 7-ahead kids and parents.
Thank you so much ❤️.
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
What a fun Christmas! It looks like everyone got exactly what they wanted!
❤️❤️❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Ezra my heart melted at how excited he was ❤❤❤
Right. 😊 so precious. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁❤️
I will always be a subscriber to your channel. Simon is so excited for his brother right now. Simon loves his 2 cars, and he not letting go of them. Well everyone got some great gifts for Christmas. The look on Ezra's face when he saw his gifts the plastic and the colorful pens, you could tell how excited he was. It doesn’t matter what he likes, as long as he got it on Christmas Day right now.😮😊😮😊😮😊
So true ❤️ and thank you. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
I love cars to
That’s awesome! What’s your favorite kind?
I love how Ezra pushes all the rappers underneath/behind him. And then there's the nest of his favorite things! I do believe he was very happy with his gifts!
He was very happy with his gifts!🩷🩷Thank you for being so kind!🩵🩵
Maybe Ezra’s therapist and some of his older siblings can show him how to use the railing properly. The fact that he is holding the railing from the bottom will not help him in the event that he trips over something (including his feet) or if he slips as a result of walking down the stairs with socks on (for example).
My sister once fell down the stairs at my parents’ house a number of years ago (back when she was a teenager) and she was holding the railing the same way as Ezra was in this video. Fortunately she was okay but she would have avoided the bumps and bruises if she had been holding the railing correctly.
Yes, thank you. Good thoughts ❤️
Merry Christmas!! I love how happy they were opening their gifts Marks money collection is so cool such a neat gift idea. Simons such a great little helper
Thank you! Agreed. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
@@7Aheadfamilythank you! I got a few more Lego sets for my collection☺️
Awesome!!! Which ones did you get?
@@7AheadfamilyI got the Star Wars clones wars Guard Gunship and a Harry Potter tri wizard tournament set
Happy holidays 7-Ahead! Looking forward for 2024! 🎄🎅🏻🎁
Thank you! Yes, many great things to come in 2024. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily and Christmas is all about spending time with friends and family, gift-giving, Jesus' birthday, and everyone's favorite time of year. 🎁🎅🏻🎄☃️❄️
so true! Thank you for sharing ❤️
Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family.🎁🎄🎁🎄
Thank you ❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Simon knows the word “phone” at an earlier age than I learned it. I only learned this (along with my home phone number) at age five (almost six) when I started kindergarten.
Well you sure you’re have an amazing memory. 😊
Oh you should try giving Ezra some colored clay.
Yes! I bet he would love that. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄
You need to be careful that it is safe and non-toxic. There is always the chance that Ezra might try to eat it.
I went to college with someone who used to eat play d’oh even at that age (more than a decade older than Ezra is currently). He apparently has pica but I don’t know for certain if he is on the spectrum or not.
In any case (as always) you can’t be too careful about these things…
for sure. 😊 thank you for sharing ❤️
@@thomasschoeck9080 they should put it in a balloon. And avoid the scented type that's actually used for stimming. If it's inside a balloon, he can't get it everywhere, and if it's non scented, he'll be less inclined to eat it. I've noticed that most of us don't like the scented clay because of hypersensitivity. It's a pretty bad flaw
I live in Alamogordo which isn't far from White Sands. It's our first Christmas here. My husband and I went to Christmas eve service last night at our church. Then we went to look at Christmas lights in people's yards. We walked around and saw Santa. I wanted to say, "Hi" but he was busy with children wanting a picture with him. We had stockings this year. I bought all of the stocking goodies. I wasn't expecting anything from my husband but he surprised me with cash. I will put this towards my weekly flute lessons. We got some homemade jelly, bbq sauce and jarred pears from one of my mil's caregivers. Not doing anything else today except watching "A Christmas Story" and other stuff. Have a very Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁
Love that! Thank you for sharing your Christmas ❤️. We loved visiting White Sands and Alamogordo!!!
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
My kiddo got lots of toys eggs, he cares about the eggs more than the toys that come in them lol, nice big egg collection. And for me i have lots of teddies and sweaters lol
Thanks for sharing!! Sounds like a fun time
Lovely to see all the children so enjoying and helping each other, and especially seeing Ezra enjoying his labels and pens.
Yes. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 ❤️
I remember the younger grandson of a friend of mine receiving a gift similar to Simon’s big gift but due to being level two he didn’t know how to play with it and he soon lost interest in it. That was about a year or two ago.
Now he has some interest in building some relatively simple models. He’s currently in kindergarten and is expected to officially go into first grade in the next year or two. His reading and math are already on a first or second grade level (it varies depending on the subject area that he’s studying and how he is doing on a particular day) but he still struggles with social skills and in most other areas.
❤️❤️❤️
Love all of the joy and smiles so happy you guys had a great Christmas! 😁❤️
Thank you ❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Memorable tradition: Being with family during this time or year.
9:14 Did Adam get any gifts 🎁?
No gifts 😢🎁 for Adam?
12:39 That is one happy Ezra!!!
Yeah. Adam didn’t really get much. He doesn’t really want gifts. Ezra was so happy! ❤️❤️
@@7Aheadfamily Good for Adam. After all Adam has the best gift ever, a loving family.
Thank you so much for sharing. ❤️
Merry Christmas! Love the video. Your kiddos are so sweet getting excited for each others presents
Thank you!
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well!!!
My tradition is Christmas eve is for presents and candy (worldly) and Christmas day is for family (and Santa). I love keeping the two seperate so nobody is distracted by presents during family time
Love that ❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 ❤️
It’s good that Simon can already read his own name. I remember that I was five years old (almost six) at the beginning of kindergarten before I could do this.
I should mention that (unlike my sister) I had not learned how to work out printed words phonetically yet but I did know a number of printed words on sight as early as age four including shortened forms of my own name and words like “moon”, “clock”, “mom”, “mommy”, “dad”, “daddy”, “dog”, “doggy”, “cat”, “kitty”, “kitten”, “puppy”, “potty”, “poop”, “poopy”, “poo-poo”, “pee”, “pee-pee”, “diaper”, “baby”, and some other miscellaneous words.
I think I was into grade school when I started to learn phonics on some level. My sister (on the other hand) (perhaps due to her hyperlexia) understood this as early as age two apparently without being taught but reading comprehension would begin to come much later for her.
This pretty much covers what I remember about this topic for now.
❤️❤️❤️
Is your sister autistic too? It is so fascinating how members of the same family can have different skills and express traits in different ways. My father is dyslexic, while I learned to read early.
@@higherground337 Yes, we’re both on the spectrum. When we were growing up I I was level two (by today’s standards) and she was level one. Despite this her symptoms still fit the stereotypes in media depictions (such as the movie Rain Man) more closely than mine did.
Today she’s still level one and I am also level one. I struggle more with my social skills than she does (most of the time) and she has a better memory for names, faces, and dates (especially birthdays) than I do. Also I have a driver’s license (but I don’t actually like driving) and she has not put in the extra twenty to thirty hours of driving lessons that she would need to get there (despite being four years older than I am).
Her IQ is actually higher than mine and when I was as young as age seven or eight she would notice if I went against almost any social norms and she would often laugh at me about this and call me a “baby” as many neurotypical older siblings might.
❤️❤️❤️ it is so interesting
❤️❤️❤️
Your eldest son is also very handsome and smart. I've seen your daughter and the other sons a lot. Saw the eldest one for the first time. God bless him.
Thank you so much!❤️❤️❤️
Ezra 😂 que emoción senti al ver su reacción con las etiquetas de agua , Felíz navidad 🎄
Thank you❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Merry Christmas to you all ! Simon doing so well !
Thank you 🙏
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Yes, Simon has been improving so much. 😊
Merry Christmas love you guys I get called stupid. A lot so rude
Sorry to hear that ❤️. Have a merry Christmas. 🎁🎄
Enjoy your holiday , it so nice to see your kids grow and happy . Ezra has improved so much in telling you what he needs
Thank you! Yes he has!
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Merry Christmas ❤. Everybody so happy with the presents. I love to see there reactions. Especially Ezra’s reaction was beautiful and priceless ❤🎄🎄
Agreed 😊 ❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄❤️
So glad Ezra got a gift he could enjoy.
It was a fun day!
I honestly love that you pay so much attention to what Ezra likes i can tell it means the world to him , no matter what it is ❤ it really touches my heart. One of my favourite presents this year was actually the box something came in because it had like two twisting ends that just felt so satisfying to open and close , i put it down because I suddenly realised everyone wanted me to look at the stuff inside but my partner looked at me and went play with it it dosent matter and his mum smiled and I was literally just thrilled 😅😊 that and a Pikachu onzies I have not taken off since I opened it 😂😂 I'm 31 now and honestly it's the small simple things to this day that really really make me day.
Merry Christmas to all of you ❤❤❤ and I hope everyone got what they wanted and had an amazing day ❤❤❤ much love for you all
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
And thank you for sharing ❤️, it’s nice to hear that someone else has thoughts like Ezra . 😊
@@7Aheadfamily always ☺️ I feel like Ezra is a kindred spirit of mine , we are very very similar only difference being that I am mostly verbal now unless I am really anxious or overwhelmed, or there are any strangers in the room. ☺️
So cool, yeah I can’t wait for Ezra to get there verbally. 😊
students on my special needs bus loves labels we call them kites
❤️ that’s awesome
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
It is good that Simon knows the word “presents”. I think I was closer to five (if not six) (I’m not quite sure which) when I learned that word.
❤️❤️❤️
ASD CLUB, we just joined!!❤ 🧩 ❤
So Awesome!!! Thank You!!! Looking forward to meeting you soon!!!
Just a special interest in Dasani labels. Light blue, transparent, nice textile, same reasons most of us collect rocks. (just my guess) Merry Christmas👍
Very true ❤️❤️❤️🎁🎄
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
I wish so much just now that I should have some of the Swedish old money right know so I could give it to Mark… I dont think its very known outside of Sweden but for a couple of years ago our money got completely redesigned but its cool that Mark at least have got the old german ones :)
Thank you for commenting!💕💕💕
Merry Christmas
Thank you, Nina!
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Glad you got it in time :)
Besides, who decides if it is trash or treasure?
😂 thank you!
Right 😀
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
I really like your family . My four years son is exactly like Ezra he is non verbal and have severe autism-and 2 years son is like Simon he speaks few words but he doesn’t show any symptoms of autism..
Sounds like we have a lot in common. ❤️ thanks for watching and commenting ❤️
Sorry for my previous comment. I only posted it to prevent this video from getting hate.
Thank you so much for commenting! ❤️❤️❤️
Merry Christmas 7 Ahead🎄 I got a basketball and a basketball net for Christmas from Santa (I haven’t opened the rest of my presents yet because the rest of my family isn’t up yet but I woke up extremely early)
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
That’s awesome! Basketball is such a good sport. 😊
Keep us posted with your other awesome gifts that you get when the rest of the family wakes up. 😊
@@7Aheadfamily I also got a pear of Christmas pjs, a grinch shirt, a carving kit, sneaker balls, a collared shirt and a new pair of skates
Thank you so much for sharing.
13:20 I knew about the phone/tablet cord and the wrappers of things like water bottles, chips, and candy, but not about pens/stationary. Is this a new fixation for Ezra?
The pens are fairly new. He only likes a certain type of pen, the pilot kind that make a loud clicking noise, and he likes to click them.
Happy birthday Ezra!!!
Thank you!
He loved his gifts! Our 3yr old with level 3 autism got his gifts in old Amazon boxes wrapped in tape. He loves Amazon boxes and we let him work on the tape. *Where did you get the sleeper??? We buy regular sleepers and cut the footies off to put it on him backwards.
Sounds like he had a fun time with his Christmas gifts too! Here is a link to Ezra’s Pajamas - littlekeepersleeper.com
Everyone seems to be pretty happy for what they got(especially Ezra)
So true!
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄❤️
Merry Christmas 🎄
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
Simon doesn't sleep with dog bed anymore!
No he doesn’t! He’s learned how to sleep in a real bed! ❤️

@@7Aheadfamily Thank you so much!
You bet!
So, last christmas, Ezra got recycled Water Bottle Labels. but, try making sure he doesn't put them in his mouth because they can pose a choking hazard.
Thank you for your concerns!💕💕💕
I got a lot for christmas and got mickey and minie stuffe for Christmas witch i love
fun!
Merry Christmas everyone. Looks like everyone had a fantastic day so far. PS - sorry not been commenting on your vids lately but they are watched! Also how is Mark getting on with his braces? I cannot wait until the day I reach braces parole! 😂
No problem, thanks for watching ❤️. Mark has been doing well with his braces. 😊 lots of visits to the orthodontist. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily thank u ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily I know how Mark feels….I am constantly at the orthodontist office but it is so gonna be worth the outcome at the end of my treatment. Still abt 20 months to go for me!
❤️❤️❤️
Like ezra I also like taking the labels off the water bottles because I believe the water bottle looks better without the label
Nice!
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄❤️
@7Aheadfamily thanks also, Merry Christmas
❤️❤️❤️
Me to
It looks like Ezra was trying to chew on the water bottle label at first.
You should be aware (if you are not already) that some kids on the spectrum do not know the difference between food and non-food items. From what I have read this is how the eating disorder known as pica is described/defined.
Pica is mentioned in the House M.D. episode “Lines in the Sand”.
From what I have read pica is not only (potentially) present in children (and some adults) with level three autism. It can also be seen in (at least) some level two autism patients as well.
The bottom line is to watch Ezra carefully when it comes to what he eats (or even puts in his mouth) out of an abundance of caution. In this regard you probably can’t be too careful.
Very true thank you ❤️
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 ❤️
Extra likes his gifts
Yes, he does!
Merry Christmas 🎁❤️
You as well I meant Ezra spell check got changed it
Thank you!
I have a 6.5 year old grandson who is also autistic. Ezra reminds me of him so much! Would you mind sharing where you got his onesie? We are having the hardest time
You bet! Tell them we sent you. 😊

❤❤❤
❤️❤️❤️
Like how Ezra likes garbage I could b happy just opening wrapped boxes. My mom even did that y yr to make our presents seem like more
That’s awesome! Sounds like we have a lot in common. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄❤️
Watching this made my night thank you for a video hugs wish I could support the channel somehow
Watching is supporting and commenting. 😊 thank you so much ❤️
So glad you enjoy the videos ❤️
Love watching you guys
❤️❤️❤️
yes i would love some toy cars to play with
both Ezra and Simon love playing with toy cars
What did y'all do for Ezra 8th birthday!
We stayed home and ate cake and opened presents. ❤️
I got so many things for Christmas But I got a new laptop which is amazing
Nice!
What kind of laptop did you get?
I got the Acer Nitro 5 gaming laptop and it runs roblox great so i can upload more yt videos
That’s awesome 👏
What’s your RUclips channel?
Im 12 and just found out I have autism and my parents still don’t get the whole being overstimulated thing yet so when they give me gifts I just freeze
Thank you for sharing what it feels like for you. I know it’s difficult for Neurotypical people to understand what it’s like for someone who’s autistic. You can try and explain it to them and let them know how you feel. Most likely they won’t know how you’re feeling unless you tell them. It is a journey, though. A long journey for a family to understand each other. Good luck. Let us know what kind of video we can make. That would help you and your family. 😊
Ezra is in need of a diaper change. U can tell the 1 he's wearing is soaked!
True. We changed it after filming.
its not realy trash if people enjoy the 'trash' but its good for a title XD and people do say one persons trash is another persons treasure idk why but they do. anyways does Simon or Ezra stim with there feet? and how well do there cope with the caos of christmas cus i try to get away from it as much as posable if it gets to caotic
So true ❤️. Yes, I guess you could say they stem with their feet, especially who Simon who runs back-and-forth a lot and also is on his tippy toes a lot without his braces. 😊 Simon does better with the chaos, Ezra does OK for a little bit but then does like to get away from it all and have a break. 😊
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily sorry I forgot to add that to the comment 😬
Sorry, yeah we just we’re saying that a lot today
Yeah I love to play with things like what that to
Your son is in a Facebook/Instagram ad. Autism in Focus. I noticed it after watching your videos. You might already know this. But they are using your part of videos to advertise it. Actually it's both your sons.
Thank you so much for sharing. We did not know this. I’ll look into it. ❤️💜❤️
I like cars to I don't have any toy cars
Would you like toy cars?
Yes I would love some toy cars I could give my address if you wan t it@@7Aheadfamily
Okay 👍
Me and my brother have autism
Thanks for sharing.
Just an outsider looking in the sister should calm down around brother Ezra to much stimulation
Thanks for sharing
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 ❤️
You still doing RUclips or you quit?
We are still doing it. We post twice a week. 😊😊😊
@@7Aheadfamily ty I love you guys
Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
@@7Aheadfamily how is Simmon doing in school?
He is doing really well. He loves his school and has good teachers and good friends. ❤️❤️❤️
Why Would you Title The Video Trash 🚮 ? and GIVE It to him 😢 don’t encourage HIM
trash Hoarding I see Parents doing this With their OLDER
Autistic children too . Before you Start hating
I AM Autistic too , I hope these Other Autistic People Don’t Feel like
they Are Trash because they get it To Collect it No hate just concern 😊
Did you watch the movie? We don’t say trash in the movie at all. We just simply put trash in the title and thumbnail to get people‘s attention. But in the video we share our story, respectfully explaining why our autistic son enjoys his specific water bottle wrappers. I carefully make sure to only get the ones he likes and put them in the box for him. I love his reaction when he opens it.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 to you as well. ❤️
