If I look younger here it's because this video is actually 2 years old and it's just taken us this long to feel comfortable releasing it since this is the internet. So please be kind and please consider sharing and donating :)

Well done

I am an to

Im autistic as well

Dang it, I missed it. I didn’t know I was on the spectrum until I was 34. I’ve sort of had help but being diagnosed as an adult meant I had to figure out a lot on my own. It also answered so many questions from my younger days too.

I am proud to be autistic!

I am autistic myself and you making this video helps me explain it to other people

your son is a special and loving person :) I think people with autism are just the best they can be very funny and very nice, etc ♥︎

omg im tearing up and even one thumbs down on this video makes me disappointed and mad.

me to i have this i felel like im normal and not you and i try to be better tehn other ppl

Omg I love him so much🥰😍

Hey mark your son is like me the way that both of us have autism

i guessed May 26 , 2006 on a friday and i didn't skip because i didn't know that you were gonna ask him another date

I thought these comments were gonna be rude af

I just gotta say I’m autistic I don’t have a special ability and you are a saint

Hey just wondering is it harder raising a special kid because now I want a to have a autistic kid now

If you didn’t cry watching this you’re not human.

i am a big fan i love your vids

idk what- your saying but some of the things your saying is not i dont have that and i have autism tho i just hate myself lol

i cried watching this

amen

Don’t worry we will all support you

I understand how hard that is and I loved the way you said it!

in my school we watched this and i am in 3rd grade and just to make it clear thr girls cryd

I really love this! We are all supporting you mark!

This is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing this. I work with special needs and my heart just exploded with love and happiness 💓

I personally don't leave a comment, but I have to say, I love that you did this. Yes the world is scary, but even as human beings we need to be aware of the things we don't know. The world lives in fear and is easily scared of what we don't know. Thank you for all the knowledge you can offer. It doesn't matter how big or little the problem is, we should stay motivated to be more optimistic of our surroundings and learn from it. Together we can make the world a better place for your son, and kids just like him. So that someday when my son is older, he will approach kids without judgement and get along with eachother. Once again, thank you for this.

Bro why are 6ou being so harsh to your neices and nephews

Your sons a legend

I literally cried

I was born on 5/26/2006 lol

Mark the way you put this made me cry because I have autism and the way you explained it with the fluency you did it with actually sums this disability up in a nutshell

Love this video

I’m autistic and I know why you did not let him on screen. I was bullied at school for being autistic and being a red head.

I can only but apologise for not seeing this and thus missing the live stream. I work with Special Educational Needs Children and have grown up with ADHD myself. What you do is amazing and your son is amazing. Thank you for sharing him with us.

Ure awesome

i hope you care about your nephew -_-

no hate, Am i the only person that thinks he looks like nick from big mouth?

Hey, India is facing serious problem due to pandemic. Because of this seriously ill patients need oxygen, as our country has huge population, we need ample amount of oxygen and there is scarcity of this my request is you make a video how to make oxygen concentrator.

Thank you so much for talking about this and accepting him as he is. As a "disabled" person raised in foster care, that was not the case for me. I don't "people" well and it was not until later in life I found out why.

I'm autistic and I just think too much

what song is it at 3:54

Autistic and special needs people are easily the nicest people in the world. Period.

My brother is special needed

i have autism and so is my sister

I think its a little screwy to profit off your own sons disability. But aside from the money how is this kid supposed to live a life where he thinks hes normal like everyone else when his own dad is labeling him as disabled to the world.

Your son is awesome and yes autistic people make the world such a great place

he quoted the giants song from league of legends at the end of the video

I am autistic what the f why u think I am gonna be mad at my own kind?

i saw him in your snowball gun video

My oldest has downs syndrome and my youngest has autism... no one ever asks what is it like. Even family.... it hurts.
I am so scared for my kids.

I found out ur son was in one of ur videos 5 years ago in the egg drop video

I’m same like your son

My brother is autistic this is the best vid ever also what can’t you do

After this sounds you put at the park but I can still fucus on your voice........ So autistic ppl don't have noise cancellation

It's beautiful that you shared this story. By letting our lights shine, we subconsciously give people permission to do the same. You come across as a wonderful, fun, smart person and I can tell you're a great dad. Wishing you many happy returns and future happiness.

Could see you cry at the end. SO MUCH LOVE

This video made me cry on the inside with joy and every thing ells.

My little brother has adhd, and while not exactly the same, I still relate to many of the points you made.

❤️❤️❤️

All people deserve love especially ones who have disabilities and people who are in need of help

"iM aUtIsTiC mYsElF " knowin more than half of you arent is scary

same

That amazing kid of yours, has the brightest most sweet smile I have ever seen in all my life. Tell him to have an awesome day for me. Thank you for this great video!!!!

Hes so kind

Father of the year

Isabel full respect for this kid

wow mark 3.2 mil holy dang

3:19

I’m pretty sure I have a mental illness. I get easily distracted but enough about my mental state people really should help this people. They can make everybody so happy in many ways and they deserve to live in this planet and have fun. Thanks for making this video to bring more light to the situation

Truly wholesome

someone in my family is autistic so its really cool to be able to understand him more.

This just made my day

As an autistic person, I absolutely love this!!! I'm not always open about being autistic because I have been treated differently for it. I sincerely hope that is never the case with your son!!!

MY HEART BROKE.AND IM 9 AND A BOY😭😭
😭😭

This is sweet

Mark you are indeed a mad lad

lol @ how all of the traditional celebrities made it but some of the YouTubers didn't (schedules change and it probably wasn't intentional, but still something I thought was funny).

What do you do with the money you raise? Do you donate to other autistic children and adults.

umm like i almost cried during this video

Thank you so much for sharing this. Your son is so special and heart warming.

You are my FAVORITE YouTuber so I would love to learn from you so just a week ago I saw about your class and I wish I could have joined so I was wondering if you could please do the class again thanks!

my little sister has autism

This video is really sweet

Mark Rober is going to go so far in this world I'm calling it now mark my word.

Finding a hate comment here is like searching for water in a desert. What a community.

I never thought I would cry at a Mark rober video. Thanks for the awesome video.

May 26 is my bday

7:06 that clip alone has just made my year

This is genuily the best video I have ever watched it has tought me so much

Cool

Your son seems awesome!

I know it’s hard but well done! I’m so happy for you and he’s got a great family

It’s so amazing to see how supportive people are towards you, your family and your son mark. You have made such an amazing community, I hope you know that you have an amazing son, no matter of what needs he has. It shows how special needs aren’t bad things as they can make such an amazing boy. He obviously cares about the people he meets and that is amazing. I am 14 and usually I don’t pay attention to new people, I think lots of people, ESPECIALLY TEENAGERS need to take things from your son. Lots of people need to not push aside people who have autism and other special needs, and we need to learn from them. Thank you so much for creating this video and sharing your experience with us and showing us what an amazing person your son is. THANKYOU!

😊

I understand what he goes through because I’m at autistic spectrum

your son is so nice

i wishi could donate

My little cousin can also tell the day from like the year
