See ALL my videos: www.MeetTaylorMorris.com ~ This is a video about my daughter Taylor’s experience with Autism and Aspergers Syndrome. At age 2, Taylor was diagnosed as being on the Autism spectrum and given little hope of having a happy, independent life. Now, at age 17, she is a top student, an athlete, and a creative artist.

My 11 year old son was slightly autistic, but overcame his problems and now is a public school. He is no longer autistic.
To be honest I clicked because I saw someone beautiful. But found so much more. Thank you
Thank you, from Sweden.
You’re a beautiful person, and giving so many people hope and understanding. THANKS
This was very well put and well spoken. Thanks for sharing a part of your world with the rest of us.
Congratulations on the hit volume and thanks for sharing with the community, really appreciated looking at this.
is this girl she sounds like a 17 30
Asperger’s has some perks in terms of processing and storage of information, but to be honest, I’d much rather neurotypical. the everyday reality we experience is fundamentally different from the “consensual halucination” the rest of the world indulges in. music is probably not as nice on the other side does. . .
God bless you. I really mean this. . .
This girl is right-she is not the norm for autistic children! One thing people do not know about autistic children is that 75% of them are classified as “mentally handicapped”.
My life as a young person was often tormented, but over the years I not only learned to my own strengths to maximize to the point that the Aspie weaknesses are almost invisible. I am a professional coach and mentor today with a phenomenal life and wonderful relationships. That should be a very encouraging message to young people with Asperger are. The moment you accept that you are different and stop trying to “fit in”, you will relieve the burden and begin to reap the harvest.
I have Asperger’s, but unfortunately it was only diagnosed properly after school so you can imagine I really had no friends growing up at all. I deal as best I could. I thought I’d never really let Get Me Down. I did not know how to deal, so I hardly had more than two large groups of people within wordsout krijgen.Ik chose not to bother me. I said to myself, ‘This is who I am. I * like * who I am. And I’m proud of who I am. I do not want whatever it is hit me. “It’s easier than it sounds.
You seem like a very sharp girl, and it looks like you’ve come to? Right place! Way to go! I agree about getting checked early. I’m 25 and I still do not make eye contact or talk much. I think if I help with social skills or something earlier, I had avoided a world a hurt.
I love this. . . I have a feeling that someday autism will be more accepted and embraced, I had the opportunity of working with autistic children once and sometimes I wish I could have been as free as they pleased as they are, and I always noticed that they were so intelligent and creative, the fun seems to be another world, they are only associated with energy and very gifted in a spiritual sense that is not taught to mabe we can not learn them because we ourselves do not know: -)
I have PDD-NOS. I’m usually afraid to tell people they do not understand. but I am like you a lot of ways.
Yes, I’m an Aspie. I remember going to Special Ed classes back in the day, learning to control myself for prices. People said that I would not go to college – in that sense, I have absolutely no back-up savings account, so I need Mooch from the state and my grades houden.Taylor, your story inspires me. And besides, you have many such vocal cadences for me. We are in the detailed answers and we want to enter into our own world.
Taylor, I think you are very cute and beautiful. And your personality and behavior do not seem too bad for me in any way at all. You seem pretty sweet. And look at your face, I think you have enough to convey with your eyes. . . it’s just more subtle, complex and nuanced and I do not think other people are able to see it. But it is there.
We just hit 200,000 views. . . thank you all!
I think I might have Asperger’s, I’m socially awkward, very few ‘friends’. I have a huge interest in music and making music. I can one day result of this interest. I suspect my dad might have years ago, I’m 20 now and want to be sure, it would be very wise if I’m an Aspie
shes a great speaker
I have the same problems with sensitivity and things like that, I’m 12 years, I could be autistic. . ?
It is great to see another girl with autism to talk. So many people do not get and it’s hard to explain what it is like having autism spectrum disorders.
Thank you for sharing your story! He is now 15 and after diagnosis, we had trouble for his teachers to change their approach with him. We are the teachers to school administrators were lied and changed my sons academic life for the positive. I’m going to watch it with me so maybe I need some information from him about how I can change my ways of interacting with him for it! Thanks again for sharing. The
Because girls are more social than boys, the more difficult for a girl than a boy with Asperger’s.
@ KuroiiTenshiiWerden in the same boat. . . dont give
