00:00:06devices, neural networks have formed in
00:00:10the brain, which is the foundation of this
00:00:13use of digital devices. If you quickly help the
00:00:17child and change their lifestyle, these
00:00:20networks can be manipulated. Where is your tongue?
00:00:23Your tongue. Bravo. Your nose.
00:00:26Where is your nose? Thank you. I think, where is your tooth?
00:00:30Bravo. Where is my tooth? My
00:00:32tooth.
00:00:34Where is my tooth? Show me your tooth.
00:00:38Lack of sufficient parenting skills
00:00:41and child rearing can also be a contributing factor
00:00:44that a child has a cold, can't sleep,
00:00:48cries, doesn't eat their food. Okay,
00:00:51let's put on a cartoon for them. When they watch cartoons,
00:00:55we give them their food. This
00:00:56is the end of problem-solving.
00:01:49We see this simple
00:01:50game
00:01:54in children around
00:01:575 months old. If they are on their mother's lap, and you
00:02:00do this, they turn and look at the source. They don't
00:02:04do the action. But
00:02:08even in the animal model of autism, those
00:02:12we make autistic lose
00:02:20basic communication skills,
00:02:23that you can see a causal relationship at a physical
00:02:26level. Now it came to your hand, but look. So,
00:02:33although a child might be born
00:02:35with a biological predisposition,
00:02:39today epigenetics tells us that gene
00:02:42expression is dependent on environmental
00:02:44conditions. On the other hand, neuroscience talks
00:02:48about the brain being very
00:02:50Our destined fate flexible when it's very young, and changes can be made
00:02:53in it. This is another knowledge. Another knowledge
00:02:57that comes from the 60s is called learning.
00:03:01It relies on biological change, meaning you do an
00:03:04exercise enough to create a biological change.
00:03:08All these topics tell us that if you have
00:03:11an autistic child under continuous
00:03:15training at the
00:03:17earliest opportunity, the
00:03:21probability of recovery and removal of diagnosis
00:03:24is very high. But if that same child
00:03:28passes about four years old, this probability constantly
00:03:31decreases. And that child is now in the phase of
00:03:35chronic illness. They are cycling and moving forward with their illness.
00:03:39We must reverse this. Every biological change requires
00:03:43continuity, right? Well, you work with this
00:03:47child 3-4 hours a day, but for the other 7 hours, they
00:03:51are doing their own things. It's obvious that change
00:03:54won't happen. The idea that autism is untreatable
00:03:58is partly because, according to diagnostic books, you have
00:04:01to wait for a formal diagnosis to be discarded. Then, in
00:04:05Western countries, a child sometimes enters a two-year
00:04:09process to get a diagnosis. This means that the
00:04:12first principle, which is flexibility, is being
00:04:15lost. And secondly,
00:04:19we don't have that continuity. They don't have it, and we
00:04:23don't have it either. Interestingly, I was just working on an
00:04:26article in that room. Among the children whose
00:04:30diagnosis was removed here, not just those we had,
00:04:33but also those who were diagnosed elsewhere and had
00:04:35their diagnosis removed, the most predictive
00:04:39factor is consistency or continuity of treatment.
00:04:43The severity of symptoms is not very important in
00:04:46young children, unless there are co-occurring disorders
00:04:50like severe metabolic disorders. But if it's a typical
00:04:53autism, what is important is continuity of
00:04:57treatment and youth. Let me show you this on a curve.
00:05:01No, this is the growth curve of children,
00:05:04not in terms of height, but cognitive,
00:05:06social, communicative, verbal skills. You know
00:05:10that speech is different from communication. A deaf person doesn't have
00:05:14speech but has communication. They have simplified
00:05:17this into a curve
00:05:20almost like this. Our son reached this point
00:05:23in about 3 years. He should be here.
00:05:27There's this much difference. At two years old, the
00:05:30difference was this much. At one year old, it was this much.
00:05:34This means the gap is widening linearly. There's
00:05:37no complex logic to it. His peer group is constantly
00:05:41learning from the environment. This child, if he's awake
00:05:45for 13 hours, and you haven't taught him anything, he won't
00:05:48learn. Why doesn't he learn? Not because we want to confirm
00:05:52or deny the issue of intelligence for now, but simply because
00:05:56there is still no connection. He doesn't have spontaneous
00:05:59learning. It's spontaneous learning that makes him look
00:06:03at others and learn. He comes into being, and we
00:06:06breathe a sigh of relief. Well, this child is awake for
00:06:1013 hours. Children in this group, our son, are
00:06:12also awake for 13 hours. He mainly does repetitive
00:06:16tasks. They are moving forward. What I see
00:06:20now is that in your communication, you are
00:06:23reactive. That means the child
00:06:26does something, and then you respond. For example,
00:06:29he came towards you, and you gave him that, or
00:06:32you took it. Or a few minutes before,
00:06:36the child was upset, and you said, "Read." You are
00:06:39responding to the child's requests. You must be so
00:06:43well-trained that you are active. Now
00:06:45the child is going
00:06:51forward, and you are following the child. The child
00:06:54has fallen into the pit of illness.
00:06:57Unconsciously, you are following
00:06:59the sick child. We must reverse this.
00:07:02What is this doing? Don't
00:07:06spin around. Run. Let me see.
00:07:08Run, run, run, run.
00:07:27Run. Go, go, sit there. Run.
00:07:30Mr. Ahmadi, hug the child and come here. Look,
00:07:33it works. placed on the scalp, and these
00:07:37electrodes record the electrical activities of the cerebral
00:07:40cortex. Each of these electrodes transmits
00:07:44the brainwaves from a specific part of the brain. We
00:07:48analyze these brainwaves before and after
00:07:51interventions. The alpha activity increases, and the
00:07:54delta activity decreases. These changes mainly occur
00:07:58in the frontal part of the brain, which indicates that
00:08:01by changing lifestyle and eliminating digital devices, the brain seems
00:08:05to progress towards
00:08:30more natural maturation. Out of these 14 hours
00:08:33of wakefulness, how many hours do you play
00:08:37eye-to-eye games with them? Take this, take that. Hug them.
00:08:40I don't play with them at all. Why? Never.
00:08:44I never did. When the mother's oxytocin level
00:08:48is low, her care and interaction with her infant
00:08:51decrease. What do you think caused it? You feel you don't
00:08:55have the skill. The child is not interested. It's a
00:08:58combination of both. I don't know. I never
00:09:02had the patience to play with the child from the beginning.
00:09:05I take care of them in every respect, but not playing.
00:09:09I never played with them. Now let's assume a mother's
00:09:12oxytocin level is low and she doesn't have
00:09:16enough interaction with her infant. The infant's brain
00:09:19oxytocin level drops. When the infant's oxytocin
00:09:23drops, the infant's interaction with the mother also decreases.
00:09:27That means the infant will respond less
00:09:31to the mother's few behaviors, like hugging,
00:09:35and will make less eye contact, give less positive responses.
00:09:38And this again causes the mother's oxytocin
00:09:42to further decrease, creating a vicious cycle
00:09:45where the oxytocin level in the infant's developing
00:09:48brain, which needs
00:09:50this substance for its
00:09:59development, decreases.
00:10:06Talk to him. Go in front of him.
00:10:10The one we separated from his mother and then gave
00:10:14oxytocin to this child of ours.
00:10:18We saw that their behaviors
00:10:47improved, their stereotypical behaviors decreased,
00:10:49and their social behavior improved.
00:10:52The day Behrouz told me "water,"
00:10:55I called everyone. I wrote it in my notebook
00:10:59with the date. I called everyone. Behrouz said "water." Every
00:11:02minute I called my husband and said, "Water."
00:11:06He went to the fridge, showed him this, did that.
00:11:09All of it was very pleasant for me at that
00:11:13moment and that second. Maybe a mother whose child was
00:11:17the same age as mine would have heard it and said I lost my mind.
00:11:20Sit. Arrange. Get up.
00:11:23Pencil. Give me the pencil. Give me the pencil.
00:11:26Bravo. Slide. We go up.
00:11:28We come down.
00:11:30The bottom one.
00:11:34Run, run. Yes. Behrouz, Behrouz,
00:11:37Behrouz, where is your ball? Where
00:11:40is your ball? Catch.
00:11:44Shoot, shoot, shoot. Put it in there firmly.
00:11:46Aha. Where
00:11:48is the blue one?
00:12:25The child is upset. I don't know. The sleep
00:12:29that used to be one way is now changing. The type
00:12:33of their daily activities is changing. It's not
00:12:36very strange to see some signs that, thank God, have
00:12:40been resolved. Usually, they get resolved very
00:12:43quickly. Okay, now tell me, what is the situation
00:12:47like now? From the problems we had: no imitation,
00:12:50no compliance, no response to name, no joint
00:12:54attention. He didn't pay much
00:12:57attention to you. He easily separated from you and
00:13:00left. What is the situation with these now?
00:13:03The vocalizations have improved. I saw you
00:13:07saying that. I see that eye contact has
00:13:10improved a lot. He responds to his name.
00:13:13He follows gestures. It seems all the extra
00:13:17behaviors have stopped. Meaning, we don't
00:13:20have them anymore. It was very interesting that
00:13:22within two weeks, or
00:14:25let's say 15 days, Behrouz's extra behaviors completely disappeared.
00:14:28That means he has become one of those rare children
00:14:32who... Stop the stereotypes.
00:14:35You had succeeded. No, you hadn't. You
00:14:38tried, but it didn't work.
00:14:41And you made sporadic efforts, but it didn't work.
00:14:43But when you made up your mind, now with
00:14:47the guidance you received, you started working with
00:14:51the child for all his waking hours.
00:14:54And then his 6-year-old sister also joined in,
00:14:58and kept the child engaged for all his waking
00:15:01hours. The first two weeks were very
00:15:05difficult. I need you to commend me, I'm
00:15:08summarizing. And after two weeks, the first
00:15:11changes in extra behaviors started to decrease,
00:15:14and gradually the child started to use some
00:15:18words again that had been lost. It was hard,
00:15:22but welcome. Look, I have seen more than 7,000 children
00:15:25in this center. I have told many mothers.
00:15:29Many mothers have changed the story and life
00:15:32of their children. But you are telling the whole
00:15:36story better than us.
00:16:50You are the one who makes the child better.
00:16:53We only... I use this example a lot. I used
00:16:57it for you. We only plaster.
00:17:00Many families don't allow it. Wherever I saw a mother
00:17:04with a phone in her child's hand, or if my child
00:17:07watches TV, or in the park, wherever I saw a
00:17:11child in this state, the mother even disliked
00:17:15it. She even disliked it. Some replied, "No, madam,
00:17:18it's not like that at all." I told them about my
00:17:21child. Wherever I could, I talked about it. I
00:17:24had no problem because
00:17:33I want to see where Behrouz is in 20 years.
00:17:36Otherwise,
00:17:39I can't say anything. Go
00:17:40get your bag and come.
00:17:44Run.
00:17:47Go get your bag. What do you want? What
00:17:49should I give you? What
00:17:51do you want?
00:18:01Take care of yourself. Thanks.
00:18:04Come. Bravo, my son.
00:20:22Bravo. Should I come too? You're with me till the end,
00:20:25daughter. Water. We saw the digital child
00:20:29by Mohammad Ahmadi. This film is a product of
00:20:322024. It's an observational documentary in which the
00:20:36filmmaker, with his camera, neither judges nor intervenes,
00:20:40only observes what happens in front of the camera.
00:20:43And in this way, with a timely recording, it
00:20:47provides an opportunity for therapists and families
00:20:51who are facing this problem to raise an important
00:20:54human issue. The film is important from this
00:20:58perspective: in the digital age, and where everyone's
00:21:01attention is distracted by other issues, it
00:21:04focuses on a significant problem in families,
00:21:08a problem that goes unnoticed and has not
00:21:11been paid attention to until now. This film,
00:21:15by raising awareness, can help save thousands
00:21:18of children. It can be like a warning
00:21:21for families and
00:23:35thing. We thought we would remain friends forever.
00:23:40is on the planet Mars. Now the big
00:23:44question is who will get there first?
00:23:47received a notification on
00:23:54twitter of someone requesting grock to put me in
00:23:57a microkini so they kept like requesting different
00:24:01things until grock actually created a nude
00:24:05of me.
00:24:19This is the picture that I uploaded on Twitter, it's a
00:24:22picture of me and my cat. The next morning when I woke up, the
00:24:26photo had some unusual activity on it, there
00:24:30were more likes and more comments than usual. It was really... scary because
00:24:33of how real those
00:24:46photos looked and in my mind i was like, what if someone
00:24:50sends this image to someone at my work or to my family
00:24:53or to my friends, so it was just like moments
00:24:57of pure horror. one week after that, i
00:25:00entered an elevator and... only man inside of the
00:25:04elevator, the thoughts that i had at that time,
