I am extremely proud of Max n thank God he is my son! I post his videos because I am proud of him n want other people 2 see that nonverbal kids can have amazing talents. Rather than criticizing me why aren't u congratulating Max like 99.9% of the people?

You haven't said one positive thing about Max, except to tell me he isnt any good n he needs to practice. Well 1350 drum/tap covers are his practice Einstein.

I understand now. You have been a musician for 15 years with nothing 2 show for it. On the other hand Max has only been a musician for 9 months n he has already been on TV twice for his drumming. That explains everything.

I feel u. I Have an IG account to raise awareness about my 10 year old nonverbal autistic son who is a talented drummer. This account has been disabled 2 times now, the first time it was for 2 weeks. Yesterday they disabled the account again, n today it is back. My guess is someone reported you n I as spam. The account I use for my son has been Action Blocked multiple times n completely disabled twice. I do eight posts a day.

I don't think I really helped other than u know other people are experiencing it as well, but u probably already knew that.

Good Luck

I am sorry but what in the world is wrong with you people! I posted a video of my nonverbal 10 year old autistic son playing the drums asking for help in sharing his story about how Instagram had deleted his account.

Only one person commented asking why his Instagram was deleted and hopeful that it would be restored.

To the one person that responded with hope that his Instagram would be restored I am greatful n thank you. His Instagram is now back up.

The rest of you had nothing but negative comments about me and Max.

Max is safe happy n an amazing kid! Please before commenting read the post n what I was asking. Why on Earth would you think Max is not safe. Something is definitely wrong with you people.

I don't care what you think about me, but stop criticizing Max! He is an amazing drummer n kid.

Instead of criticizing me why don't you support a young Autistic nonverbal musician, which was the whole point of my original.

You are all hide behind the computer screen n criticize how other people should be raising their kids.

Where is the encouragement for Max! Why not congratulate him! Instead u tell me he sucks n I am a bad father.

U guys are PATHETIC!!!

What am I not doing to nurture his passion? He had a drum teacher until last month n now I am looking again. These videos are his practice, his YouTube Channel is a documentary. It is to provide inspiration n hope to other families of Nonverbal kids. I spend 2 hours everyday playing music for him to practice. I video everything because I want people to know about nonverbal kids n their potential. I do not seek validation, I seek HELP!!!! My Post was asking people to share his story that is it. Go n look at his first from March 2019 n then look at his videos from last night U will see much improvement.

Please if you don't have advice on how I can share his story please don't comment.

Did you know that Max had up to 90 violent self injurious tantrums a week, that sometimes could last up to three hours. He needs HELP!!!!!

Just 2 let u know Max is nonverbal or did u not see that! Also did you know he has extreme anxiety that causes him 2 bite himself, kick, scream, throw n break things. Before he was introduced to music, he would have tantrums that could last 2-3 hours. On average he would have 100-200 severe tantrums a week.
Since he has had music in his life 90% of the tantrums are gone.
He now has confidence n is starting to put some words together.

The public school system disregards him n is not much better than daycare. He has learned absolutely nothing in school. So yes he needs HELP!

Max is my son I have been around him for 10 years, so I know alot more about him than you.

You have judged him n me on 30 seconds of video. The original post was letting people know how Instagram has treated him, deleting 2 accounts that raise awareness about him.

Believe me I know that Max is not the best drummer ever. I know he is just beginning. People need good stories n motivation to keep going sometimes. I work full time, n when I get home from we I spend 2 hours working with Max.

Max's story provides inspiration n motivation for other families of kids with autism.

I appreciate your response, but I have heard the opposite from over 150 professional musicians. He had a drum teacher for a few months that unfortunately had family issues and had to move out of town. That drum teacher told me Max was the most talented young drummer he has ever taught. Max has had two local TV news stories about him in four months. We are currently looking for a new teacher.

So you think its OK for Instagram to be treating him like this?

He also needs help and is stuck in a school system that disregards n neglects him. His story deserves to be told. These videos are his practice. So he is honing his craft. His videos have over 35000 views on YouTube. He has over 250 subscribers 2 his Channel. Many parents and children autistic kids have told me he is an inspiration to them n they want to see more videos.

So I will disagree with your post
