Autistic Son Says 'Bye Daddy' And Leaves Mom And Dad In Tears

July 7, 2025

What started as an ordinary day turned into a life-changing moment for one family — and it was all caught on their kitchen security camera.

In a now-viral video, mom Erin shared footage of her and her husband going about their day, putting away groceries and preparing to head out. As Dad gets ready to leave, their young son, who is autistic and has limited speech, suddenly says, “Bye Daddy!”

Both parents freeze in disbelief. The joy and shock on their faces speak volumes.

Erin captioned the heartwarming clip on TikTok: “When a mundane moment turns into an extraordinary one.”

And extraordinary it truly was.
