Holly is perfectly natural to worry about Ezra you did have an idea/ thought to move his therapy to a clinic. That is a good thing and hopefully the more time Ezra keeps going progressing in his therapies you feel comfortable. Might be hard/difficult at times hopefully will get better and I hope Ezra enjoys himself at his school/clinic
Agreed. Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
@@7Aheadfamily you are welcome on the plus side of his first day he had fun that tired him out
So true ❤️
Big day for Ezra and big day for mom and dad bc it’s difficult to let go. Totally agree with you exploring the opportunity to observe within the school environment
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
When I worked in a special school we had note books for each child so we could tell the parents what their child had done that day, what they had enjoyed etc. our children couldn’t tell their parents so the book helped a little to fill that gap. It was only to inform about the things the children had done, enjoyed, or what they had eaten for lunch etc. It was an friendly way of sharing those everyday things back and forth with the parents. Official communication stuff was done in the official way.
Yeah, that sounds awesome! Thanks for sharing ❤️
I have autism and anxiety
Thanks for sharing! So glad to have you here ❤️
That’s such a great idea.
Right!
Ezra and Simon are beautiful kids and seems to be they’re improving each day
Yes! They are. Thank you
My 2.5 year old is starting a special Ed preschool this fall and this video was so helpful. My son has limited words and I can feel your pain. I have the same concerns for my son. Thanks so much for being strong. I’m sure therapy at school is good for him long term so you’re doing the right thing, even tho this first day was a lot on him.
You are so kind!💕💕 We wish you and your son the best!💕💕
Hi Holly, it’s totally normal to feel that’s is hard to sent Ezra to ‘school’. But you also must be so proud that he did that. That he was totally wiped out makes sense because of Al the new impression. Ezra seems to love the people in your family and they love him. Your giving him the opportunity to care for others outside your family and they for him. Also don’t be afraid to ask about if he ate lunch. Your concerns are valid. This must have been such a hard decision for you both. I really think it’s going to be a good thing for him. I’m rooting for you and Ezra. In the long run this is good for you guys to have some me time during the day. ❤
Agreed ❤️. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
the traveling you did is probably a life saver especially because it happened so early for your kids. I have a very similar experience taking road trips, it is one of the things that really broke me out of my shell in terms of how I see the world
Thank you! Yes, Travel has a way of doing that I believe. ❤️
My son’s name is also Ezra and he just turned 7. He reminds me so much of your Ezra.
Thank you for sharing! We love the name Ezra!
I feel the same way. My son is non verbal n it's hard not nowing how the day went.
Yes! It’s a struggle
At minute 9:45 I feel with you Holly, so well. A few years ago I see a documentary on RUclips of an autistic school called Elijah School. It shows how the students spend their day at this school. How they are educated by the teachers. The videos are very interesting and they are always available. I´m sure Ezra get´s better every day. The first day is always the worst day.
Thank you! I am excited for when I get to see inside the classroom.
Hello Holly I am a behavior technician working in a clinic for autism. We work on learning how to interact with peers and how to do life skills tasks we also work on table work like sorting writing and reading. And teach how to use the AAC device. At the clinic I work at we have an app called bright wheel which is an app where we check the kiddos in and out of sessions, we take pictures and videos of the client and if they are playing with a friend we make sure friends face is hidden behind something like an emoji. And we also update what the child ate throughout the day if they napped if they used the toilet or were wet. Maybe you can give that idea to Ezra’s school! Bright wheel is an amazing app and lets parents see the things the kids do throughout the day and gets pictures and videos of the child doing an activity
This is awesome!!! Thank you so much for sharing. We will look into this!
This is the best thing for him.. Dont ruin it cuz of your worries & concerns, its about Ezra & he clearly needs this..
❤️❤️❤️
Awh I love you guys. I'll keep y'all in my prayers and always listen to that little voice, that's God talking to us. I have full faith our amazing Lord is taking care of your beautiful family 💛
Agreed. Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Awww, Simon is important to Ezra. He got his little brother’s shoes. ❤
Thank you for being so kind!❤️😊❤️
Yes! They love each other
It's very natural to worry, and have concerns. our schools have a home / school book or e-mail journal, which we write a quick note about their day or if concerns in, parents can do the same, you will know with his actions if he is having worries, for personal development children need interaction with different people and environments x
So true, thank you for sharing ❤️
No wonder he needed a nap after his first day of his new school it’s a lot of changes and challenges but it does sound better to be in therapy at a therapy school it gives him a break from parents and I guess you get a break too, I hope he gets along with some of the other students he’s done so you can see his progress with the videos you post. I really hope he enjoyed his first day it should get easier once he knows that’s where he goes to school like the routine. All the best to the family x
Thank you so much 😊❤️❤️❤️
Holly, your son Ezra reminds me of my son to a T. Their behaviors are almost identical, with exception my son needs his tablet at all times, vs Ezra and his cables.
We are still working on getting my son all the possible assistance we can. I will certainly follow your videos into the future. Blessings to your family.
Thank you for sharing. I’m so happy you found our channel. Let us know what type of content you like the best and what is helpful. Glad to have you here.
In your voice are the colours,beauty mom
❤️
Ezra might make some new friends!
Yes!
@@7Aheadfamily he probably had a lot of fun if he is tired
Yeah I think so. 😊
I hope Ezra had a good day at school. I hope he liked it.😊
❤️❤️❤️
Not officially diagnosed but have been told by counselors and ppl who have worked in doctors offices that I am on the spectrum. And I am borderline to liking routine yet liking change, especially to my surroundings.
Thank you for sharing! Many people who like routine and like change find that they may be Autistic and have ADHD as well. Good luck on your journey of self discovery and we hope that the videos on our channel can be helpful and positive.
Love how patient these special ed classes have gotten. When I was toddler just gotten diagnosed with a disability, i was admitted to one of those facilities for school. I got banned from that program for having meltdowns back in 2000 (they didn't understand). Straight to public school.
Then Voc Rehab (they help people with disabilities get jobs) were a lot more understanding of my needs 15 years later.
Wow, you had quite the journey. Thank you so much for sharing ❤️❤️❤️
Back when I was in school in the 1980s and 1990s no one knew what sensory meltdowns and panic attacks were yet so at the time a lot of my behavior was classified as temper tantrums both in school and at home (and sometimes punished accordingly) even though I actually had relatively few temper tantrums even taking into account the entire time I was growing up.
@thomasschoeck9080 yes, as a society, we have come along ways, but still have a long ways to go. 😊
I’m currently in a program that helps people with developmental disabilities find and keep jobs
That’s awesome! Are you enjoying it so far? Is it helpful?
I hope he have fun at his school
Yes! I think he did. 😊
Hey 👋 7 ahead family I can’t wait to meet you 😊❤
❤️❤️❤️👍
I hope he enjoys it
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing. Shouldn t those schools have cameras so the parents could observe at any time? I am sure that Ezra likes a new activuty in his day and that your days will be less stressful now. When can we expect the video about potty training?
Cameras would be cool. 😊 we are working on the potty training video, hopefully fairly soon. 😊
Wow first day at school good job
I love this video and learning more about different autism programs for kids! I think you guys are so cool at exploring all your options. Ezra looked exhausted after his day. Is Ezra okay now?
He is much better today, back to his normal self. Thanks for asking ❤️
@@7AheadfamilyAwesome! He’s such a happy kiddo. I was a little worried when I saw him sitting so still in the car. I’m so glad his day went well and am happy for you guys! In all your videos it clear that you really care about all of your kids! It get really excited after work because there is usually another video and it makes my day better 🙂
So glad that you’re enjoying the videos. It’s a lot of work, but comments like this keep us going. 😊 thank you for sharing ❤️
I believe Ezra had a great day and is probably happy to be testing comfortably!❤ trust God alone!!
Thank you for your heartwarming comment!❤️🩷❤️
Ezra starts school agian thats so cool
❤️❤️❤️
I understand the moment when you are tired,alarms conexions
Yes! 😊
In the car back, you can see Ezra processing al the stimuli he has gotten in his eyes.....
👍 yes ❤️
I totally agree. Being in this new environment had opened a brand new window for Ezra.
So true ❤️❤️❤️
Bless you, that must’ve been such a hard day emotionally 🤗
Hopefully each day will get a bit easier and Ezra will be as excited going to school in day 2 and 3.
How was he post sleep?
Good question, yeah, I think he might have been up quite a bit in the night, so that probably contributed.
Be calm,is not a deases,is a fight for our lifes,no matter who
❤️
the novelty seeking is a really important factor, I don't know how to explain the autism thing because its both anti novelty and novelty seeking. Its similar to how at times I find patterns in social behavior that others don't see but I struggle a lot with that stuff in general.
Thank you for your comments! That is very insightful, into Ezra ‘s world. ❤️
That’s what I’d do too !
I would go & observe ❤
❤️❤️❤️
We all have a litlle problem with tummy in special childhood,but not all time,in our special moments
❤️❤️
I actually can't imagine what that would feel like to send a child who can't talk to school. My kids with autism can all speak. They were speech delayed, but they still spoke. It was hard sending them off on the public school bus when they were three years old, though. I have never liked sending my little kids to preschool.
Yes, it is not easy. ❤️ Thank you for sharing your story.
I dont let my grandson on a school bus with his speech delayed from autism
Yeah, that can be tough ❤️
I wonder if you can get lights that darken and lighten at a touch of the switch. I find first thing in the morning the strong overhead light really is bothersome. So bringing the light up slowly helps me to regulate to the awake state. I also prefer wall lights to overhead lights. Mall and shop lights are horrible and often require a peaked cap or dark glasses. Or even better never going into shops with strip lighting.
Thank you for commenting💜
My heart went out to Ezra when he spit up his food. I'm an autistic adult with GERD and while I can manage my reflux symptoms fairly well with diet (for some reason cutting out grains works for me), I still take an H2-blocker every night. My quality of life is so much better with reflux meds. Do you think this is something that you could try for Ezra if his doctor gives the green light?
Thank you for sharing your experience. Ezra takes some acid reflux meds at night. It’s not strong stuff, just over the counter. He is gluten-free and has been since he was 1 year old. (Several of us are gluten free) I am sorry you have to deal with that. We are trying to look into things that can help support him in that.
@@7Aheadfamily I hope you find something that helps him!
btw, watch out for Simon too. Most autistic people have GI issues, so there's a chance Simon might too in the future. Mine didn't start until I was about 10 and it was subtle (post-nasal drip and coughing). Then GERD and IBS started in my teens. It's manageable now, but it was rough. Sending lots of love to your family!
Good to know. When he was 1 year old we noticed that he did better without gluten. But other than that we are watching him for any other issues.
A friend of mine has a grandson who is Ezra’s age and he is thought to have Level Two Autism (or at least something that resembles it). He has only been talking for about a year (with the exception of some echolalia before that).
In the morning from nine to twelve they have him in a class that is technically a kindergarten class. As a result he is still technically considered to be in kindergarten. They have him placed this way because he is still toilet training, he is about Simon’s size or slightly bigger, and he still needs to work quite a bit on his social skills.
In the afternoon for the rest of the school day they have him doing reading and math activities on the first and second grade levels and so far he is doing well at this (despite learning to talk so recently).
Given that Ezra is still not verbal yet how different is his average school day from what I describe above? What is similar to my description above and what is different?
Ezra mostly learns functional skills in his school right now. He’s learning spelling of his name and letters and he is still learning toilet training. He has one-on-one help from a therapist the entire 6 hours. They have cércale time when they read to the kids all together and he usually doesn’t sit for that for too long. They also have recess and play time and he lots of breaks when he can play on the trampoline and ball pit play area.
Trusting strangers with your child is difficult, though there is one device some are using to check on their SEN children, the angelsense tracker, it is a tracker and a bug, with remotely triggered active listening, though depending on where it’s hidden in the child’s clothing, the sound quality may not be very good, also the legality of using a bug is another matter, the 1 way voice can be turned off for certain hours of the day.
That sounds cool, we will have to look into that. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Aww Ezra looks exhausted
Yeah, it was a big day. 😊
There are student support professionals too in school too, which help students with disabilities. 🧩
Good to know.
And i m just a kid with my family"s self control in this ever challenge
❤️❤️❤️
He is so tired ! Ezra was knocked !
Your right! He was very tired after school 😊🩷
@@7Aheadfamilyhe was like good night ! Guys I am down
Yeah!😂🩵
Aww I love you guys
We love you too.
@@7Aheadfamily how is potty training?
It’s coming along better, Simon is pretty much there and Ezra is getting more consistent. 😊
Fiiireeee...chorus..Uranus save nature,please..
Simply..mom love..ghossip enemy....

Remember when I said about my mom health and I said that her stomach only has some bacteria? Things didn't go well, her stomach has been gotten worse, she always feel stomachache nowadays, and she can't sleep well too, she eat less lately, and today she feel really painful and went to hospital in all of the sudden to let doctor to scan her body by using an x-ray, I feel worried and I really hope she is safe
I’m so sorry. I hope the doctor figures out what the problem is, So that they can fix it.
@@7Aheadfamily Thank you, I hope she's okay
We will pray for you guys! ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily Here's an quick update: she will have a surgery soon, doctor said that something got stuck near her stomach and a surgery is needed, and it could be tumor, I just doing a pray for her that hope she is okay, thanks for praying btw ❤
You’re very welcome! We’ll keep praying for her as well ❤️. Much ❤️
Id be friend with ezra and simon

Poor Ezra and poor mum ❤😂🎉😢😮😅😊
Thank you for commenting
Does the school have any kind of cameras on the teachers that you could check out? I've heard horror stories on the Internet. Could you sit in on a class?
I know, right? They said they will let me sit in soon. So that’s good
A order at table you need it is hard to do with us...in a childhood

Ezra's chair,hard....my strategy
❤️
Can I ask why is he in a high chair. I’m curious, and new to the channel.
Great question! It is a comfort and security for him to actually be in his highchair especially to eat. Otherwise he typically just won’t stay at the table because he’s too distracted. 😊
@@7Aheadfamily aren’t you worried about him tipping it over? He seems extremely strong! Maybe putting weights on the legs to hold it down? Have ti tried a booster seat that attached to a chair that clips him in? Do they make chairs for older kids?
I believe so, we could look into that. We actually have 2 high chairs and the other one is more sturdy, we should move that one upstairs. amzn.to/45x9OHs
He has nice joggers and t shirt on how old is he
Thank you ❤️ seven years old
Hey, I’m wondering in general (obviously we cannot say for 100% of cases) can we say that if an autistic person is high support needs they are very likely to have a comorbid condition and/or neurodivergence that makes their living and coping skills more tough (e.g intellectual disability, OCD, ADHD, epilepsy, motor disorder, eating disorders, bipolar, schizophrenia, etc.). FYI I’m 15 years old and am also on the spectrum and am glad to be who I am today. However I recognise however that it often may not manifest as positively in other people as it fortunately manifested in me. I’d technically classify as Level 1 autism similarly to Simon however I do notice even from my memories when I was his age that he and I are quite different individuals despite having a supposed similar level of functionality (albeit I do not really believe the current level system to be an accurate way of encompassing what is the autism spectrum, but it is what is legally used and what is commonly known and let’s be real I’d rather just have a level than be called disabled cuz I personally don’t see myself as disabled in any way). My observations are that at that age, Simon seems much more emotionally involved than I was. For me, I had quite precocious intellectual development so my brain wiring is very structured on noticing patterns in creations and computing calculations and visualisations in my head. In contrast however, I was very verbal at Simon’s age despite my lack of emotional attachment. I believe in Simon and hope to see the amazing things he does as he grows older. While I can’t completely resonate with Ezra’s situation (given I can understand his way of thinking cuz if we boil it down his brain structure follows the same foundations as mine but like in terms of struggles I cannot understand), I hope he can be happy in his own skin and carve his own life out of our big Earth web. Thanks for reading my super long comment which I most certainly was not originally intending to be more than 100 words. Take care all of you! ❤
Thank you for taking the time to comment on here!❤️❤️❤️ We appreciate you!💜💜💜
I think its awful to keep him home & sheltered all the time. He needs a break from you all & your home. Give him a chance 2 thrive & be on his own. How fair is it that Simon goes 2 school but Ezra cant. Plz remember your kids are a reflection of you as parents.. Do you all have a P.O Box we can send gifts 2?? Like new clothes, sensory items, etc!! Ezra seems 2 need clothes that fit, what size pants, a 6 or 7/8?? Most likely he was 2 excited 2 eat...
Thank you. Yeah that’s the problem with Ezra , because he’s so skinny. If you get him pants that are long enough, they just fall off, and he hasn’t managed to really keep a belt on very well. But his pants size is 6. 😊. Also, just so you know, Ezra did go to the same preschool as Ezra for two years, which he really enjoyed.

I’ll try not to. Thank you
Does Ezra take reflux medicine every night? It will help him feel a lot better in the mornings b
Yeah, we are trying to fix it though diet, and I think we are getting closer. 😊
Don’t hesitate to use acid reflux meds every night. My son has needed them since he was 1 week old. Of course, consult his doctor first.
That acid in his stomach and coming up in the mornings can do horrible permanent damage to his stomach lining, esophagus, and teeth. Not to mention it’s miserable and makes him not want to eat.
I also have acid reflux (technically GERD). I learned in the last couple of years during an x-ray to check for pneumonia (which fortunately came out negative) that my acid reflux is likely caused by a hiatal hernia (these run in my family). If Ezra has not been checked for this his doctor might suggest an x-ray (or other imaging) to find out if he has this and if so what should be done about it and when.
Aside from that the most important thing is probably to keep track of Ezra’s weight and make sure that he doesn’t lose weight. It’s difficult to tell from a video but both Ezra and Simon look like they might be a little small for their age.
@@7AheadfamilyIn my case it helps to keep spicy foods to a minimum. I am able to eat onions without my acid reflux acting up but only if they are adequately cooked.
Thank you for sharing! We will definitely look into this. ❤️ Yes, Ezra is definitely skinny, Simon is doing well though in that regard. 😊
He is emotionally exhausted and with very low food and take on that day didn’t help matters. It should have been a slow acclamation, Maybe a week or two before he’s there by himself For a full school day With all his necessary, communication tools.
Thank you for your feedback🩵
How old is Ezra?
He’s doing good. 😊
Chorus secret..an inferno school must be. .why?
❤️❤️❤️
Is Ezra's Autism School A Special Education School Or General Ed ?
It is a special education school. ❤️
@@7Aheadfamily im not trying to be rude but , What could you guys do if he gets sent to a general ed public school later in life ( Middle - High School ) & he encounters being severely harassed because of his Autism ?
Yeah that could happen. We would try to work with teachers and aids to help out. Maybe come and follow him around a bit to see if we can help in any way.
@@7Aheadfamily I wish I gotten that support but since I’m a junior in high school down here in west Tennessee people are ruder & not wanted anything to with others .
So sorry to hear you have had such struggles. Are there any teachers or aids you trust that you feel you could get help from?
In comparisson graffic lability and this. A graffic
