#Texas #TikTok #Viral
This kid is straight up brave. I had bullies too when I was a kid and I wouldn't have been able to put myself out there the way he did. His neighbors seem really solid, too.
No I would now. He is very brave.
Yes he deserve all this happiness for having the balls to do that lol he fought for it
@A Same here.
Bro needs to workout and lift
I’m so glad that he knew to reach out for help when he needed it and that he didn’t suffer inside alone. 👊
This young man was so brave! I have not cried tears of happiness like this in so long! His reasoning skills and discernment are so pure! That is one special kid for sure!
This is the biggest thing to me - _so_ many kids (and adults) are suffering in silence unnecessarily. It hurts my heart to think about it.
I'm sure he's developed a ton of friends now.
Happy fella ❤🎉
I’d like to know how many youth group leaders from Amarillo have reached out to him to invite him to some of their summer activities. This is, after all, in the heart of the Bible Belt. Where are the Christian kids?
What a nice kid. What a shame others bullied him.
Of course The Newz doesn’t tell us both sides of the story
@SF2036 what other side are you looking for lol? The story is a kid looking for friends, that's the point of this story not that some random kids where bullying him. Your weird
He wants to donate money to Ukraine and tornado victims. Nice doesn't begin to describe it.
@@buddah3414 I guess having an attention span is weird now.
According to the report the entire reason this kid went looking for friends and the neighbor helped is because he got bullied.
Bullied? How? It would be nice if there were a little more information. I can tell you from my own experience growing up that sometimes you can feel like you’re being bullied, when people are actually just busting your chops a little. This is part of the maturation and character building process of growing up. That’s real life, but life on The Newz, tends to revolve around whatever they want you to know, and making the most obvious and simplistic appeals to emotion. It’s not real life and these organizations who run the national nightly news are hacks about how they report things from the real existential crises to the fluff pieces.
All the major TV news outlets are one big corporate monolith sold out to a bureaucracy. They spew a grossly corrupted and disinformed misunderstanding of reality.
@@SF2036ay lil bro ain’t nobody reading all that 😂😂 maybe take this 11 year olds advice and find some friends
This kid is pretty brave for an 11-year-old. Takes guts to approach houses cold like that. I have a feeling he’s going to find plenty of friends later in life.
For real 🙏 he is so much stronger than he probably realizes, I hope his future is as bright as his personality 😊
@dwkwb8 glad he didn't approach the same house the young african boy did, that got shot by that old white man. He was actually looking for his sister.
Ok….but we know nothing about this kid.
@@jessaguilar4747 know nothing as far as what?
@@mikejones-wn1swThe one you mentioned. What happened?
This is a perfect example of how important a strong community is.
Amen
‼️‼️
This is a perfect example of play with your kids and be they best friend get off that phone if you have kids and watch them so they don't get bullied or feel alone a little conversation could change everything but I guess forcing people to be your friends is better or knocking on random strangers doors is safe for a kid smh what if the person was a kidnapper and the kid walked straight into his house becuse he wasn't talked to better about how dangerous it is knocking on strangers doors smh
@@prettyindacity6708right cause kids never got bullied before cellphones existed, got it.
Unlike getting shot in the face if you are black
He was so brave. Instead of accepting it he did something about it and tried to help his situation. I love this for him. Such a sweet boy
Oh yes, you can hear it in his voice. Happy days ahead for this sweetie pie!
Yeah. Took some guts to go out and be honest about it.
He will go far! It's about reaching out, and that's just what he did!
Wow so cute
Schools don't care, bullies parents don't care, this is just so heartbreaking to hear.. This poor boy.. Thank you so much to this family for helping him.. So beautiful to see this..
They never did.
@@sandrasanders706 I'm 46yrs old so in "my day" lol, they absolutely took that seriously.. My oldest is 29, they did then too but, the the time my middle and baby, 24 and 21, nope!! They just seemed to be like, handle it yourself or the good ol, 'just ignore them." BS
Yeah I lived that. Reminds me so much of my son at that age. He’s ASD too, but at 17 doing a lot better. Unfortunately for Us- he decided to go live with his mother last fall - but just glad he’s doing better.
@@jamessharp9790 I am so glad to hear he's doing better and hate so much that he was treated as less than his beautiful worth.. Very thankful he had you!
@@Swnsasyyou understand it then you were 49 and they cared. It’s gotten to the point in school where if a bully hits you and you fight back you both get detention. That’s honestly maybe why the us is where it is
Shout out to the awesome neighbors, for going above and beyond to help change this kid's life for the better!
Yeah what a beautiful couple
Yes... Tnk.u so much to his wonderful neighbors.
I’m so impressed with this kid for being such a go-getter. He wants a friend & instead of waiting for it to happen, he is making it happen.
Yes and what a great example to those who are being bullied. Often it’s the people who are able to see above the heads of the crowd who get bullied. Because they aren’t equipped to think for themselves. This kid thought outside the box and it gamed him a world of friends. And still has the grace to forgive his bullies! Well done, Ma & Pa, neighbors,
Its anti social. His parents provide him no community to be part of?
?
@@kelpfarming regardless, he had a problem and acted to resolve it.
Such a good kid. He even reaches out to the bullies. Only a strong kid like this considers his enemies.
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist4"with great power, comes.great responsibility." - Spider-Man.
This young man was absolutely brilliant and brave going house to house looking for friends. Sorry any child has to feel like this, but he's simply amazing! 😊
I feel like I have none sometimes. Maybe worth a try
Jesús is your best freind and your Savior. Read Jhon:3:16. (The Bible).
I grew up with no friends up until high school. School is so miserable when alone, so I really wish this young boy all the happiness in the world. May he gain the genuine honest connection in true friends.
He’s so confident! “just contact me” 👏👏 i’m glad he’s feeling better
I was bullied badly as a kid so this story really made me feel for this kid. He’s at a tough age, but if there’s one thing I could tell him, it’s that things will get better and you have a bright future ahead of you. So glad this story had such a positive outcome!
I was bullied badly, as well. I too have a wonderful life now with a fantastic group of lifelong friends that I cherish. It does indeed get better.
I was thinking the same thing. Its a difficult age. I think once he comes into his own he'll be quite popular and likable.
Now you're ripped.
@@Princeton_Jamestake that anger and use it for something good. Most serious gym rats got some baggage
@@Jordakynett True story, it’s exactly what caused me to start going to the gym, and I haven’t quit going for 30 years. And fitness has been my career for the past 20 years now too, as giving back by helping people who want and need it is the most rewarding thing I can do after knowing how much it positively changed my life forever.
Taking all those bad feelings out in the gym is by far the most productive way to deal with it over all the other options.
I was never bullied as a child but has experienced it as an adult. It’s very traumatizing and I’ve never recovered 100%. I’m so happy that he has a lot of friends now. Everybody needs to feel safe, love, and appreciated.
So sorry. I was bullied as a child due to an overnight skin condition, lost all who I thought were friends. I became introverted, but in high school, it stopped. However, I experienced bullying again in my 20’s at work, I had to get out of that toxic place. That was so traumatic because it’s tied to a livelihood and professional reputation. I’m now in my 40’s and people at work have tried it every now and again, but I’m now able to identify the situation, assert myself and nip it in the bud.
i’m glad the kid has the strength to differentiate between a friend and a bully. sometimes seeing a once-friend for who they really are is what hurts the most. such a strong kid
He is learning a lesson early in life, that many of us, much older, struggle with. And facing it. Made me feel better. Maybe because I have come to realize that certain friends are no longer, and it's not because they're bullies. It's inexplicable but is better to face it. He's young and very insightful in this way
Show this lil man some love. He had the heart and courage to reach out for companionship. Most don’t even dare.
Man bro that kid has a lot of heart!
@@DaveDavis-ml5ic bro. I wouldn’t even of had that type of courage at that age. This lil guy is made different.🙌💪
My daughter has cerebral palsy and is wheelchair bound. She started jr high this year and kids are not bullying her, but they won’t be her friend either. It breaks my heart! I wish just one kid would genuinely want to hang out with her. She is hilarious and the kindest person on earth. Every one of those kids is missing out on an incredible friendship
What city/state do you guys live in? If you guys are around I got plenty of nephews that have a big heart and alot of love and friendship to give!!! V
@@rumit4all We live in Utah. What about you?
@@rumit4all appreciate your kindness either way
I hope she will have a friend that has the qualities to be a friend
❤❤
"I was just looking for friends, but now I got friends all over the world, thanks to them" this is kid is so sweet and deserves the world. Love seeing this on my page and it warms my heart 😊 Hope this kid is doing better now with his new friends 💙
I’m crying. I’m SO PROUD of this young man. As a introvert who struggles to this day, beloved I PRAY you have the best friends in the world!! 💙
It's not the number of friends we have but the quality ( as in kindness honesty decency courage loyalty generosity etc.) of the people who are your friends that counts
Me too, an introvert that's trying to get rid of all the insecurities they left in me we can blame them anymore, we do better!
You're not alone ❤️👍😊
I agree with your prayer.
Humility is a hidden gift. It sometimes comes out at the most heartbreaking times.
Truth. This kid wants to donate his gifts.
Yes!
I feel so bad for these kids nowadays. I remember growing up playing outside and as soon as a new kid moved into the neighborhood we couldn’t wait to knock on their door to ask if they can play with us. I don’t even see kids outside anymore.
I agree 1000%
Truly sad to see the state of kids nowadays.
Exactly. & I had a diverse neighborhood where all types of kids played together bc u had to go be outside. Nowadays they go in small groups & play video games inside a house
Same here, I lived in military housing. As soon as we saw a moving truck, us kids would bolt over and see if there was any kids!
Kids today don't play outside anymore, they sit inside playing video games and on the computers. Nobody is social anymore
This reminds me of how cruel kids could be to each other. It's also sad that it's the middle of summer and I never see any kids outside riding bikes, playing in the sprinkler, all the stuff we did growing up. There certainly not healthier with the Internet in their lives.
I’m proud of this kid for stepping out and having these neighbors who really cared 💖
Awwwww!! 🥹🥹This made me tear up. What a sweet and brave little boy. I hope he’s enjoying his summer now surrounded by friends who are as sweet as him.
Poor lil dude. This is how you used to ACTUALLY make friends back in the day.
Just literally…go outside and hang out with decent folks around the corner. I’m glad they came together for that young fella, this warmed my cold heart.
Gonna try and smile a bit more today.
Back in the days mann I miss it
Broooo remember that??? Knocking on the new kids door asking if he can come outside and play!!! 😂 good ol days!!!.
I'm 53....would love to go back and run around the neighbourhood with all the kids there. Some were friends....like we went to each other's house to play and others were 'just' street friends....we played outside with each other. Soccer game on the field....anybody could join. We ran up and down the blocks with our toy guns shooting each other. Climbing construction sites, swimming, rowing boats in the water, skating....ice skating in the winter. Especially my youth 6 - 12 was the absolute best!
@@NIMSINSyou member getting about 20 bologna sandwiches with a little mustard eating one and throwing the rest at the boys? I miss them days.
Very true, I miss yesterday. Most people have no clue how isolated and alone soo many are these days.
This moment is going to shape this young man into an amazing person. I'm so glad he's made a lot of new friends from it.
The parents set him up to go viral don't be so gullible
The kid has guts and heart. Glad he picked their house to ask
Easy to tell that he has a huge heart for people. Sad to hear he was bullied but glad it ended with happiness
Him saying for people to call him and he can help the bullies too, he’s amazing!
He looked so distressed. 💔 I absolutely love Hayden's personality. If he's inclined, I think momma should put him in wrestling or jiu jitsu. He'll gain so much confidence to stave off bullying, and he'll make friends for a lifetime.
Incredibly brave kid I bet he was very nervous but he still pushed himself to do it.
That’s a great idea. Kids should be involved in organized activities to learn the value of getting a return on investment of their time by acquiring a skill. They need to see how discipline pays off and how hard things become fun.
I appreciate your comment. I feel the same although when you have an empathetic child, they do not like contact sports where there’s more physical harm to another person I dealt with that and it doesn’t work. You can’t make him toughen up.by teaching rough behavior, He’s a sensitive soul with a pure heart.
@Catchmyvib2 I appreciate your perspectives, too! Toughness is an ancillary byproduct of martial arts, but local martial arts training is not designed to inflict harm on another. So much research has revealed that the kinetic energy of an art like Jiu Jitsu, in addition to the physical touch, the sweating, and tension release, are absolutely WONDROUS for human development mentally and physically. 🥋 I personally believe that we all should engage in intensely physical activities routinely for decompression and as a release valve for pent-up aggressions. Kinetics, physical touch, sweat equity, feeling more confident in mind and body are the goals, not physical harm. But I do agree, Hayden's a pure soul. 💜
What a sweet kid. He deserves all good things. 💜
My heart goes out to you. I have 2 boys and they are grown men, but I know they would have been friends to you when they were young. Your a good guy! Hang in there and don't give up! There are other good people out here.
You’re *
Agree my grandson is 9, he would have gladly played w him.
most adults are totally naive to how mean their kids can be to other kids
I really respect that this young man did not give up. Bullies tried to break his confidence, but it didn't work at all. I fully believe he would have knocked on every door in the neighborhood until he achieved results. (Of course, knocking on a stranger's door is not always safe, but that's another story.)
What you might not realize is that many bullies don't have confidence themselves. They cover their insecurities with violence and snark. Those who overcome bullying are better for it. They learn so much about character, self image, conflict resolution, deflecting negativity with humor, etc. Even if they retreat, they might use that quiet time to develop their talents in art, music, poetry, etc. Stay awesome and kind, everyone!
@@twilit lol I was just thinking that. There's so many 'my kid would be his friend' but if you talk to the parents nobody is a bully except someone else's kid
"They are not my friends anymore because they are bullies."
I can relate. So glad it didnt rob him of his confidence. He ditched them and set out on a mission of finding new friends. Well done my boy. You have a winning spirit🏆.
Having a kid that has been bullied I totally understand his feelings. When your kid wants friends but don't want to get bullied . Good job lil man 🎉
Shout out to this beautiful couple for recognizing that this young man really needed some friendship. It would have been easy to say “sorry to hear that bud, but we don’t really know any other kids.”
But no- they didn’t do that. They took the time to get to know him, to engage with him, and to show him that he’s loved and that he matters. They went above and beyond to change this boy’s life and I hope that they too are blessed ❤
He's a good kid, he really is. I'm glad his neighbors were there to help him out. Proof there are good people out there too. 😊
Having had a daughter once, when he said I need some friends really bad I just burst into tears, I can’t stand seeing kids in need
brave and sweet as he still goes and searches from door to door.
Don't feel bullied. we stand behind you 😻
I wanna be this kids friend. He reminds me of my oldest when he was that age. The couple that sent the video viral are the ideal neighbors, softens up my heart a little. This vibe needs to go viral.
#1, love the Jaws t-shirt. #2, stay strong little man. Bullies are weak. I'm 50. When bullies acted up back in the day, they got punched in the face. Nowadays, the school won't back you up. Use your brain and your charm to work it out. Your family loves you, and that's what matters most.
This is so awesome, love it! He kept going and wasn't afraid to be vulnerable...so glad this neighbor helped him like he did!
Exactly! He said "thanks to them", but it was really thanks to himself for taking the initiative, putting himself out there.
Ikr. Ability to be vulnerable is a strength.
My man’s went from victim to councilor straight up. He said “contact me” 😂
This young lad rose above, mad respect. Hes got kickass shirts too! I see a bright future with this one. Courage is a virtue. I hope he and his neighbors see all these comments and people supporting their actions, very heartfelt.
Kids need friends. It’s so important for their experience and development. This warms my heart.
What an amazing little man he is! Dude if you see this I just want to tell I'm so freaking proud of you reaching out and asking for friends. You are my hero!
Social media WAS intended for happiness and to bring others together. It’s a shame what people have done to social media.
Social media was created to make money.
There’s a certain entertainment channel that parades as a news source, that is 99% responsible for that.
Not it's intentions unfortunately
Right! We needed this after what Zav Girl did with her platform. ❤
No. It never had those intentions. Social media started as a female comparison tool at Harvard. It's also made to make money. Which is why we have algorithms and depression stemming from comparison tactics via social media. I quit Instagram and Snapchat and never going back:
This kid brought back some nice nostalgic 2000s memories of just going out and interacting with your trusted neighbors.
Kids already unknowingly has a high level of confidence in front of the public.
Dude, this breaks my heart and restores my faith in humans all at once. That kid deserves all the love. And hope he serves as an example to others. If your being mistreated find the courage to speak out and change your situation. Stay strong my dude.
If he has the confidence to knock on peoples doors, he clearly has a lot of personality and just was around the wrong kind of “friends”, and at this young age- he was wise enough to know it.
As a young boy who was mercilessly bullied, I am fighting back tears at the moment
Kids can be so evil. Sorry that happened to you I hope you’re healing ❤️🩹
Lol
@@lexdiamond9827 Hey, we found the bully!
💜 I cried too. Tears of relief. The tears just flow when my heart is so touched!
That kid has some powerful internal resources and great instinct. He could have curled up into his shell, but he took a brave and courageous path and wasn’t afraid to ask for help. That isn’t easy to do, especially if you’re only 11.
It can be hard to find the will to continue to connect with people and put yourself out there after you’ve been rejected or bullied…I’m so happy for that kid that he had the confidence and the desire to make friends like he did. It’s beautiful to see ❤️
I love that he wanted to help the bullies too! A genuine good heart ❤
As a man, I honestly can say the way he talks he will be such a great person when he grows up. He shows respect and humanity at such a young age. What a great kid 😊
Bless his heart he’s such a sweet little guy . I’m so glad that he’s happy and he’s got a lot of true friends now !
It was so brave of him to ask for friends. I hope he makes some true friends.
Oh my god this made me cry! I was bullied as well so I’m am so happy for this kid being uplifted and happier 💕
This made me cry.
From a relentlessly bullied kid to another, you are an inspiration! Brave doesn't do it justice! Love from the UK ❤️ 🇬🇧
Stephanie, you being bullied for being too pretty isn't the same😉😍
He’s has a humble heart ♥️. We need of this kids .
Listen: We all know what the truth is. Christianity is a mental health crisis. It’s a creepy social clique pretending not to be one. People are expected to side against honesty to get laid. It’s a head game that needs to end for good. It creates violence and mental illness in human beings. All religions celebrate authoritarianism, tribal beliefs, closed-mindedness, violence, materialistic thinking, and conformity. There is absolutely no love in religious ideology. Stop blaming / fearing schizophrenia for mental illness. Look at religion ONLY as the cause. Lying to self and others is the root cause of schizophrenia and dementia. Focus on meditation and telepathy. Accept the messages within. Do not lie to yourself. Get real! We are spiritual beings that understand love. Religion doesn’t promote spirituality or love. It sides against both to promote “alpha” (authoritarianism). There are no alphas. There are only men and women that refuse to focus on love. Talking about “God” and “Jesus” while remaining aristocratic, aggressive, materialistic, selfish, critical, and violent is LYING. Christians and other religious authoritarians never evolved throughout the generations. They refuse to evolve NOW. They believe they are “on top” socially. They have no reason to care about personality growth. They have no humanitarian ideas within. Others already have evolved. These individuals have developed personalities that practice social equality (non-violence). There is a reason for it: they have no doubt telepathy (love) is real. Very often they focus openly as psychic mediums. They care about personality growth and learning about consciousness ONLY. This leads to cooperation socially, not lying. Anyone that focuses on social equality / non-violence (honesty) all across the board in all ways can never be a Christian. Religion is a head game to control women socially. Authoritarian (violent) men want women to feel inferior, fearful, and obedient in the mind. This is jealousy, and it is unfair, hateful, and unethical. Violence, anger, and aggression towards women doesn’t look good, so it is hidden behind an image of social Godliness. On the Christian wavelength, all individuals are image-conscious ONLY: fearful, shallow, corny, phony, artificial, with a focus on acting skills. Christians are intensely focused on blame, and disregard responsibility and respect completely. They MUST support “alpha” (authoritarianism) to be part of this social clique. See Christianity and other religions for what they really are, and let them die out. End lying, head games, and violence for good. Authoritarians are childish, selfish, less wise, and less mature than friendly (honest) and cooperative human beings. If men are angry all the time, it means they blame women for how things are socially. Is that “alpha”, or just a less developed (dishonest) mind willing to cheat to get laid? All Christians are cowardly sociopaths. Focus on telepathy, humility, and meditation. End hatred (religion) for good….
To any kids reading this: you aren't alone. Others have gone through the same thing. There are others that know how you feel. There are good people and good kids who care. Just keep reaching out. Don't give up. Don't quit. It will be ok. I promise you.
He took action to better his situation in any way he could. I feel like he’s going to do a lot of great things in the future.
Such a brave, smart, good-hearted kid! Good neighbors, too. Just shows how much better we can make things when we come together. 💜🌎
Man, that brought tears to my eyes. God bless you, my boy.
Growing up the only friends I had would bully me as well. I’ve been depressed since a child, im so happy the boy spoke up and found exactly what he was looking for and needed. No kid deserves to feel that way or go through that. So proud of you honey!! 💕
He looks like such a nice kid. I hope he goes a long way in life. His Mom is doing a great job.
Thanks for spending just a bit of time to help him. There’s not a lot of kindness going on out there these days for some kids. You’re the best !
The kid is strong- didn't accept the BS and knew he'd be a good friend to someone. Good on him.
This made me 😭 like a baby! I'm so glad people stepped up and helped this kind hearted young man! Shame on the bullies and much respect for this young man for not naming them on social media and keeping the message positive!
What a sweet little guy. Glad he got some friends.
Having been bullied as a kid I felt this in my soul. Glad he went to the right door. It's lovely to see a positive outcome.
Aww, that is so sweet. Thank you for sharing the video. It reminds me of my 10, almost 11 years old daughter. She gets bullied in every school she goes to and comes home stating that she has a new friend/ best friend followed they aren’t friends anymore, because the friend doesn’t want to be any more. I’m really happy for this young boy and know that sooner or later everyone will have friends, true ones too. 👍😊
It’s so inspirational when good things happen to good people who just need a little help, there’s to few of these stories, and to many bullies. This made my day thanks for the good news.
Such a sweet boy! He seems like a ray of sunshine! ❤
Here in Spain, I heard of an idea put forward by a child in primary school. A special bench in every school where any child in need of a friend can just sit, so others know of their loneliness, unhappiness or suffering. This boy had the initiative to tell others he needed a friend. Millions of others never do. I thought the idea of a friendship bench was simply beautiful.
The bench idea is so beautiful! How lovely.... a silent way to say hey I need a hug, a kind word.... I need ... a friend ❤
What a brave kid to speak up 😊 I’m glad everything turned out okay ❤
I hope that little man has one of the best summers ever. This video was heartbreaking and inspiring ❤
I’m not crying, you’re crying! Lol this is so touching. This kid is braver than he realizes and super smart too! I pray he never loses his genuine good spirit and other kids see his story as an inspiration to be good humans to others and speak up if they’re being bullied ❤
Little buddy went out and found exactly what he needed. I'm proud of how bold he was I hope it's nothing but ice cream, laughs and videos games from here on out because that's what being a little boy is all about 😁 keep it Goin kid ❤
Aww I’m so glad they helped him coming from a bullied kid I just wanna give him a big hug 🫂 and to all the bullies your gonna regret the way you treat others when you grow up I’ve numerous people from school reach out to me when we became adults and you don’t wanna be remembered for being the mean kid do good and amazing things what you do in your young life absolutely follows you into adulthood 🙏🏼🥰
Says alot about the kid when he says he wants to help the people being bullied and also help the bullies. Hes got a massive heart.
I hope the parents of the next door bullies have a long talk with their kids.
We love you Shayden. You are an amazing young man
Love that baby boy. ❤❤❤❤
What a sweet young man. I hope he finds some true good friends 🥰 ...
I'm so proud of him for reaching out ❤️ What an amazing kid 😍
This kid is kind, knows his worth and is able to identify between right doing and wrong doing. His mother did a terrific job!❤
Stunning and brave 👏
You know this shows some great character for this kid, brave, takes imitative and isn't one to roll over. I know as a kid I would not be brave enough to knock on random people's doors looking for friends. I really hope the best for him, hope he finds some great friends!
His appeal to these neighbours made me so sad. But the response the video got was amazing. I pray that he will find at least one forever peer friend in his neighbourhood.
This is awesome. It’s shows there are still good people. The kid is amazing. Good job
Makes me so angry how cruel kids can be. Hearing the neighbors were bullying him.. I hope those kids are embarrassed for being called out for it.. ❤
Yeah looking back to when I was in highschool, it's actually really messed up the things kids did to each other.
They get it from adults. The strong and weak social police are outta control
Most bullies are being bullied by their siblings and/or their parents! The pecking order is quite ruthless!
@@flyinghigh2701agreed. Crazy to think
Nah they probably think it’s funny and exited they made the news.
What a sweet kid. Imagine that one kind act changed the entire trajectory of this child’s life.
I love this… and the fact the couple next door was willing to listen and do kind things for him. And his offer to help others being bullied. This kid is going places.
Bless him he's so brave...bully parents need 2 get it together
Baby boy I'm with you... I was bullied
This is more sad than we all can even imagine...
How do?
Wow... so true bestie....
Bruh... I LOVE this. It's so refreshing to see people pull together for someone in need. Especially for youth.
Literally cried watching his post. Glad to hear he’s made new friends all around the world
This is a very heartwarming story.
What an amazing act of kindness and love to make a young boys lemons be turned in to lemonade. Kudos to the kind people that helped him.
