Autistic Teen Training with a Coach: Gabe's Journey to Basketball Success #autism #basketball

❤

I wouldn't praise him for dropping the ball into the basket. He's obviously frustrated, he doesn't want to play it anymore or at least at the time of filming. He was also purposely throwing the ball to the corner, AWAY from the basket when Aaron was telling him to shoot the ball into the basket. His moaning was also clear to me that Gabe didn't want to participate any longer. Again, at the time of filming this, he was already at the point he didn't want to ahoot basketball anymore.

So, my point goes back to not cheering him on if he's simply DROPPING the ball into the basket when his instructions are to SHOOT the ball into the basket!! I got long winded I know because I couldn't find the right way of saying it. I'm sorry.🥴

doing great Gabe !!

I grew up with autistic family members. The most annoying part is to explain that they understand everything exceptionally well. In fact, they tend to overthink in ways that are way above ours. Credits to this young man, may he become able to express himself in more ways and know some people find him normal. ❤❤❤

Gabe is adorable

Great team!!! ❤❤❤

GO GABE!🎉

My Son has autism. I feel like he's a gentle soul

God bless you alway's brother

Play together his understanding is better so just play together his interests way

Pero Gabe hace notar que no quiere ése juego 😅 es tan tierno ❤❤❤❤😊

What an awesome coach and human. Gabe clearly loves him & basketball. Keeping him busy~ I love it. Giving him success!

God bless him and his trainer ❤👏🙏👍

Gabe seemed upset having to do this exercise. But he does wonderfully outside at the basketball court. Gets that big basketball right in the basket almost every time when there.

The more recent video shows he made progress in trying it and with less frustration.

😭💔💔💔💔🙏

They are both so amazing!!!

They are sooooo cute. ❤

Bravo, bravo, bravo ❤😊

How tall is Gabe? He looks like he's pretty tall.

Watching Gabe from young boy to young man is such a treat 🥹🫶

Woooo! Go Gabe! You'll be dunking on him in no time!

This precious young man may have benefited from holistic health as well. Love seeing him work with all his support. Heavy metal detox is my understanding when they are young. Sinister people want us ill, detox removes their intentions. Spraying from clouds, our foods and medicine including shots. I wish more people in general knew. I really wish this young man and parents the absolute best ❤❤ I pray God touches his mind and opens new learning and receptions ❤

Aaron. THANK YOU.

I live hiw gabe realize he it tall enough to just walk up to yhe basketball net a put the ball in shoot gab ok walk up places bal in ❤❤❤❤

Awesome Gabe!❤

This looks like PE in our classroom! We have a wonderful charity who come in a make sports more sensory friendly for the teens. It's such a joy. Gabe is working so hard, an example to everyone honestly!

Good job Gabe. Go Gabe Go make a basket I know you can . Have a blessed day ok.

Jus saw the channel you definitely gained a subscriber 🙏🏽💪🏾

Aaron, you are a great men. You respect Gabe him so much❤

Гейб ❤❤❤❤❤.

Go team🎉

I got so excited when he caught the ball & made a basket!

This is very sad to see idk what kind of parent think they should exploit the disability of there kids like this…. They can do it because he is not aware of what is going on but the government needs to do something about these parents….. I know ur not a bad parent but this doesn’t make u good either!!!!

OMG❤ this interaction between both of them ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ this is the first time for me to hear Gabe talking❤❤❤❤❤

Good job Gabe!

Hi I enjoy watching Gabe and you guys mostly in shorts ,every evening. I know next to nothing about autism but I notice a marked improvement in Gabe’s awareness. I find myself doing a little cheer for every step forward. This amazing young man is so fortunate have you guys as Moms and the coach to work with him . Just wanted to say something in appreciation.❤

3rd time Gabe said how about I just go close and dump it in there 😂😂😂. I love watching him.

💪💪👏👏👏👏 Go Gabe!!

for a second there at the beginning it looked like he was going to dive headfirst through the wall

Did I just hear Gabe say "yes" in the very beginning ? 🤔
I'm sure I did!!
I LOVED HEARING GABE SAY YES‼️‼️
Gabe, THAT was 💯 MAGNIFICENT 👏👏👏👏OMG‼️ YES, BABY, YESSSS‼️ 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I worked at an elite school for students with Autism. It cost big $$$ for kids to go, and it more or less involved working with them after school in their campus life experience, or dorms (resident school) a lot of kids became so violent we needed to do crisis intervention/prevention training routinely and de-escalate students all the time. They wore me down, and out, and I went on to work in another field. I commend people like this coach, and parents, I know there's a side to this kid that the Internet doesn't get to see, and it's a very real and common side with teens on the spectrum. Great job guys. Seriously. It takes a lot of patience. The outbursts can be heartbreaking for everyone involved.

I’m so happy for Gabe !

Lol ❤love to watch Gabe!

I recently discovered your videos of Gabe. I love watching him! His willingness to participate brings happy tears to my eyes. I have a grandson that is disabled and nonverbal so watching your son is so heartwarming to me. He is a beautiful boy and I hope and pray that he will continue to keep trying! I wish your family only the best in your journey. Much love from this stranger! ♥️🙏🏻

How/ where did you find Aaron? He's awesome!

I don’t think Gabe likes this :( He shakes his head no many times and walks away.

Has Gabe ever done sensory Integration ?
He seems to struggle with the visual tracking and convergence
He tried so well and so hard

I know sweet FA about sport. He’s great at catching. Perhaps some method to really practice repetitive throwing. Almost like multiple balls into a trash can(s). He’s good. It would be good to see what position he’s good at. Maybe he’s a runner, defender or intercept/pass to shooter. 🏆
