In the video, Amy's youngest son is sitting on the floor attempting to say his family member's name.

The TLC star is overheard on the video encouraging him to say "Abu" for her sister Amanda, and "Ada" for Tammy.

Her infant son attempts to copy her after she repeats the words to him.

"Glenn is so darn cute, Gage is too cute too!" wrote a fan in the comments section.

Another wrote: "He's so cute! You're such a great mom!"

One praised: "You have the cutest kids, they are adorable."

The video and praise come after Amy was criticized for several recent parenting decisions.

'IPAD BABY'

Tammy recently posted photos of her nephews to her Instagram page.

While many 1000-Lb Sisters fans praised the cute shots, some ripped Tammy's "terrible" decision to let the toddler use an iPad.

After one fan wrote, "Gage is a certified iPad baby," another commented: "Which is terrible for children!"

A third posted: "Scary. Ruining the child’s brain. The poor child looks like a zombie staring into the glowing void. So sad."

Gage attracted further attention earlier this week when he threw a noisy tantrum in the middle of Tammy's wedding.

The two-year-old was seen rolling around in the aisle and crying as Tammy and Caleb tried to exchange their vows.

Gage's meltdown started off as a few cries while Tammy walked down the aisle to meet Caleb at the altar.

Amy shares Gage and her son Glenn, eight months, with her estranged husband Michael Halterman.

DIVORCE

In February, The U.S. Sun first reported that Amy and Michael had split after five years of marriage.

Although Amy did not take legal action to file for divorce at first, she moved out of their shared family home and in with her sister Tammy, 36, taking the children with her following the alleged fight.

By March 13, Michael had filed for dissolution of marriage with children against Amy, according to Kentucky court documents exclusively reported by The U.S. Sun.

When news of their split broke in February, a source told The U.S. Sun that Amy and Michael had been in secret arguments for months, and the greatest source of tension had been their two kids.

According to the 1000-lb Sisters insider, Amy wanted her kids to continue starring on the family's reality show - however, Michael did not want his sons to be on camera at all.

The source said: "Michael doesn't want the kids to be on the show, but Amy disagrees."

"They have been fighting over this for months.

The insider also said Amy and her family considered Michael to be "lazy" with childcare, and she and her family felt he was "jealous" over all the attention she gave to their kids.

Meanwhile, Amy has been struggling emotionally while continuing to care for Gage and Glenn as a single mom, according to a source.

Amy has also been "feeling overwhelmed" despite the support from her sister Tammy, the insider claimed.

The source also shared Amy's family has been supportive of the mom of two through her sad split.

The insider said: "No one in the family likes Michael."
