12 minute vlog condensed to 1 second: Cohen is NOT on the spectrum, and Elle bought bangs on amazon.

Anyone else find it weird that she blurred out the drive to the specialist?? She never takes preventative measures like that... also, vlogging while driving?! Come on Elle. I hope she gets a ticket.

Anyways, I found it very concerning that she had such a totalitarian attitude towards the specialists they were seeing. Statements like “if THEY say he doesn’t have it, he definitely doesn’t have it” are EXTREMELY concerning. Being misdiagnosed is so incredibly common! My sister has two sons who were BOTH misdiagnosed... well not misdiagnosed entirely. They were diagnosed with other issues that they absolutely had, and she was told, “it’s not asd, it’s this....” and she went on, into them being 12 and 10 and they were finally re-assessed and diagnosed. Imagine all of the early intervention they could have had? And we are also in an area that has a high rate of asd and we have incredible specialists and resources, but the research is changing rapidly, and the specialists here RECOGNIZE AND ACKNOWLEDGE that!!! For Elle to say “world renowned” and “if they say he doesn’t have it, he doesn’t have it” is so uneducated and so incredibly concerning!! I do however think this is HER interpretation and not theirs! No well educated and respected scientific professional would ever have that attitude! She’s shockingly uneducated.

I really wanted to find a way to insert “vertical” 75 times into this essay... but I just can’t be bothered. Please know this was my intention

Trying to justify why us haters ragged on her over-reacting to her ‘viking’ child. So - she’s NOT overreacting WE just don’t see everything like she does. It is pretty naive of her to feel like the diagnosis definitely can’t change as time progresses but if the doctors told me that I’d probably hang onto every last thread of it too.

I wonder if she over-exaggerated his transition issues to try to justify why she can’t handle a strong-willed child who isn’t as accommodating as forde. Like - it CAN’T just be that he’s different and requires more patience from her. It MUST be something external and diagnosable.

Also - the only time I’ve really seen her playing WITH her kid is at the end of this vlog specifically about him. Definitely NOT staged for the video

[ForeverGauc01]

She has hated Cohen from the time he was born. The only positive thing about him, is his birth video going viral. Everything about him she hates. He didn’t nurse well, he was a difficult baby, he’s a regular toddler (unlike forde who is super docile). She pretends like she’s some super caring, earth momma but she’s not. She’s so bothered by him not being perfect. He’s head strong and that doesn’t fit her life. He’s going to give her a run for her money, for the rest of her life.

This x100. She wants to be the earthy loving mama but she isn’t. She’s angry and controlling. She can’t/won’t handle him with the patience he actually needs.

She also CLEARLY staged playing with her kids. They were probably so confused.

Aaaaand that nude shirt with the ill fitting overall romper - YIKES

YES the blurred out trees were super weird, especially since she filmed the exterior of Forde’s school for Tuesday’s vlog? I think it was here that someone did an image search for a school gym that matched a photo a YouTuber took inside their kid’s school gym and found out the name of the school within minutes. But someone might identify a tree as she drives past it, so....

Yep, that was me that did the gym search. And to be completely transparent, it was for amandamuse’ kids school. She is extremely cautious about what she shares so I wanted to see how easy it was for someone (an internet creep with hidden motives) to find out info about people who try to be private on their socials vs people who aren’t private on their socials. My initial thought process was that when the comments were shut off, it was because some people, like Elle, share too much and YouTube was taking it into their own hands to protect these kids. No proof, just my thoughts. And it literally took me 5 minutes to find that school from someone who actually protects their kids... Elle shares their home front on her Instagram... imagine what a creep could do with all of that information?! I was also thinking about starting my own YouTube at the time and was debating sharing my kids at all. I had to know how safe they would be... let’s just say, all videos with my kids went completely private. I do NOT want them on the internet, because no matter how careful I am, it won’t be careful enough, obviously.

Cohen is different then Forde. She can’t handle that. She can’t handle kids learn at different times when they are ready. I will laugh if her daughter is super independent and has personality where she is very strong willed. She always wants to complain about Cohen. Would it had been so bad to just bottle feed him instead of stressing about breast feeding. She is a freak.

She says she wants to be respectful of adult Cohen and what he’d want shared online. Yet she’s showed him stripping down to his undies and not cared. Same with forde. Didn’t bother her to film potty training or bath time. But no we certainly can’t talk about the process of discovering if Cohen has autism.
I think that would’ve been more interesting. Like she could’ve talked about what signs had them concerned, what the daycare noticed. How to go about contacting the right people, their general FEELINGS about the whole thing, etc.

Well let’s be honest with ourselves here... she didn’t hide it to protect grown up Cohen, she did it to protect her image. That’s it. Nothing else to see her folks except for perfectly relatable Elle!

[okaythatlldo]

I hear what she’s saying about trying to be considerate of adult Cohen when sharing big stuff like this, but what about the little stuff? Pretty much every time she mentions Cohen in a vlog or post, he’s referred to as Viking Child, or she rolls her eyes as she laughs sardonically about “Cohen being Cohen.” Everything seems to be an annoying struggle with him. He’s probably going to see and hear all of Elle’s reactions and opinions and sarcastic jokes etc about him and be like wow, did my mother even like me?

Soooo all of a sudden she doesn’t want to sensationalize anything on her channel and she wants to respect her children by not posting anything they wouldn’t want shared. She should just delete half her vlogs then.

I’m sure Cohen is going to appreciate seeing how his mom couldn’t cope with him and that she thought “something was wrong with him” to the point she had to pay for the WORLDS BEST SPECIALISTS to analyze him, and that he had a stutter (which I’m sure he will grow out of. )

Just because Elle has so many internal issues she automatically projects it on her son when she can’t cope. “He’s so hyper, he must have autism”. “He doesn’t speak with a fake British accent, he must have a stutter”. “He’s so shy out of the house, he must have social anxiety like I do”. No Elle, he just only gets out of the house twice a week at running school.

Elle has to have every specialist on the planet look after her for any issue, now she’s doing it to her kids. I can just see a future vlog about “my son bites his nails, I’m taking him to a specialist.”

Yeah, but that’s REAL content. Something that would actually be of use to someone and not just her stroking her ego.

[TeachIT]

I was going to say the same thing! Elle is against anything that’s REAL CONTENT.

Her criteria for making/posting content:

Does it make me look like an expert? (HOUSEPLANT TOUR AND TIPS FOR ORGANIC GARDENING! HOW TO MAKE MORE MILK SINCE IM BASICALLY A LACTATION CONSULTANT!)

Will people give me compliments (especially on my body)? (MY BODY POSITIVE POST PARTUM JOURNEY WITH MEASUREMENTS AND WEIGHTS!)

Will people give me pity/attention because I’m a victim? (OMG I MIGHT NEED A CSECTION IM AN ABUSE SURVIVOR, HELP DOG BIT MY BABY, I HAVE INFERTILITYYYY)

Do I get to talk about myself for 20+ minutes? (MY BREASTFEEDING JOURNEY! WHAT’S IN MY BAG?)

Is it super easy to film/edit and won’t require any actual planning or work? (CLEAN MY CLEAN HOUSE WITH ME! VLOG OF MY KIDS PLAYING AT THE PARK FOR 30 MINUTES)
