At exactly 7:00am, the Dawson family woke up, poured Captain Crunch, sat on the couch, and watched A Series Of Unfortunate Events. You rocked while eating your cereal so your mom had to help you a little bit. After your family got you ready for the day and they got cleaned up themselves, they gathered up in the family room and started their Youtube video.

"Hi, guys. It's AutismDawson and we're back with a new video for you. Now, in this one we'll be talking about the do's and don'ts of being a parent with an autistic child" explained dad. You looked up at the camera and listed the first 'do'. "D-do g-get y-your ch-child th-therapy, i-it d-does w-wonders" you stuttered. Your family chuckled. "That's right, Haley. Early Intervention Therapy has been and will continue to be, a marvel in autistic children's lives" agreed dad. Your 16-year old brother Michael stepped up to list the first 'don't'. "Don't ignore your child's autism, it'll continue to get worse if help isn't provided" he said. The family nodded. They continued to list many do's and don'ts such as: 'Do encourage your child when dealing with homework', 'don't try to stop your child when they're having a meltdown, they can't hear you', 'do try to get your child to interact with peers of their age', and 'don't do things you know will upset them'. "Well, thanks again everyone for watching and um, we'll see you all next Saturday. Peace!" said dad as he stopped the camera and went to edit and upload the video.

Mom rubbed your back while sitting on the couch. "I think that went pretty well" said Michael. "Yes, it did. And Haley, you were perfect" agreed mom. "Y-you a-always s-say th-that" stuttered Haley. "Cause it's true" said mom as she kissed you on the forehead. Just then, dad came running into the living room. "Guys, guys! Come look at this! Come look at this!" he yelled in excitement. Mom and Michael shrugged their shoulders and went into the kitchen along with Haley to see what had dad so worked up. "What's up, dad?" asked Michael. "We just hit 100,000 subscribers, and best of yet, we just got invited to Vuuugle!" she shouted. The family cheered. Vuuugle had been their dream since they found out Haley had autism 9 years ago.
