Yeah! 😊
do I have permission to copy this? I am genuinely asking for permission 😑🤪🤪
I'm aware I did I don't know about y'all 😌
“Bye, and have a positive day!”
I can’t…Christopher is too kind for this world 😭
Unless we do something about it and make a positive change in ourselves and for the world.
He's just being himself. Ain't that shg that should be the " norm". Applause, he's soooo brave.
christopher is a top g
He’s truly a inspiration
real
he’s so smart and articulate 😭😭 he literally speaks and thinks better than those we consider ‘normal’
Many autistic people do 😊 we’re more likely to be “gifted” and high achievers for a reason
In his own wise words "normal" is man made.
He is normal. People who view him as “strange” or “different” are the ab-normal ones
@@budalabudo2250 exactly this. "normal" was made by cis-gendered straight white males
We're far from normal
If someone bullies Christopher, just know that the whole world is coming after you

Made my eyes wet!
Me say that to my teacher 😂😂never gonna happen

If I was a teacher that would made me cry like that’s the best thing you could say to a teacher
Reminds me of nico omnilana
OMG I want to be friends with him SO bad. I'm also autistic and I understand what Christopher is going through. I just wish that everyone will accept those who are different.
🥺
JEHOVAH loves you!!! Me too!! You are precious in his eyes.....
@@karenovalasiti7538 Why do you twats always post religious comments as if we care? No point.
Christoper is such a intelligent person that sees the world from a different perspective and I’m also autistic and I learnt that autism is a gift and I’m glad that I have it as it gives me the power to achieve anything I want

He's so adorable and nice
Yep

He’s the kind of friend everyone needs, but not everyone deserves.

he s too pure
I so agree
💯💯
Trust me
Also, shout out to Ms Ayesha! She really brings out the best in Christopher. Extremely supportive and understanding without being patronising. LSA is such an underrated profession 🙌🏻
Ikr!!!
Maybe I am overthinking it but her encouragement to Christopher by saying "Now keep that smile on" or how she now said it, can be bad.
I am autistic and I take stuff too literal so I could have issues with feeling bad if I don't smile like all the time.
And that can give me exhaustion and burnout.
🙏🙏🙏
“Life is quite innocent and fragile, yet hard as a rock”
Couldn’t have explained it better
Ms Aisha a real one though, talked him right out of his attack.
Ayesha* But yes Ms Ayesha is a g
He wasn’t having an attack, he was just highly stressed.
She is a queen
Yuss
@@MasterKey_Trainz he was overstimulated, the loud noises triggered that in his brain, so it's not an 'attack' it's just an overwhelming sensation that ndv people can't cope with
Teacher :why you late to class
Christopher: because im walking in slow motion
this is by far one of my favorite commens in this section
KymonX agreed lol
wouldn't even mind it if i were his teacher

YAMIN GAMING 😂😂😂couldn’t of
said it better myself
We had a girl in our secondary who had down syndrome. One time someone took one off her beanie babies there was a riot in our school nobody could be mean to her on anyone's watch. She helped us in our netball team so we made her honorary team captain.
Someone at my school tipped a disabled student like what cow tippers do and I’m pretty sure the only thing stopping the 6th formers form committed death by dangerous driving was the abs systems
This is absolutely beautiful! Your school did the right thing! Very rare to see that
Aww that's sweet♥️♥️♥️
Autistic people are often misjudged as "being trapped in their own world" when in fact they just see the world in a different perspective. Just like Christopher said about being "normal". I'm glad he is able to express his words nicely to give us an insight about his struggles and capabilities.
I have had shutdowns where I find it hard to speak and I feel miles away from people and want the world to grey out because I'm overloaded. Maybe people look at the "trapped in their own world" as what happens when we are stressed. Some autistics are under a lot of stress depending on how their autism plays out. A part of me also does like to be alone for much of the day. I am happiest with my cat and a book. Too much social interaction can make me very overwhelmed. I think those traits might be behind it. Severe shutdowns can even cause body posturing/ rigidity where I did not want to move. Extreme stress. But if can look like being disconnected. But you are right...when not under duress...I do not see how that sentiment applies...

Him walking off, swinging his bag of positive strawberries 🍓 my heart ❤️ what a sweet soul
He should do a TedTalk, everything about him is so wise.

So true omd
Shared this with my pals - he's now got Germany, France and Russia on his side.
Netherlands too :)
Poland got his back-
"I think this normal is man made" Wow, truer words have never been spoken
I remember reading a comment from Christopher under a full episode of this clip, that the "positive" talk didn't teach him to handle difficulties he'd run into after leaving school, and it actually made it harder for him to adjust to life in the real world.
Teacher: why are you late
Christopher: sorry I had to walk in slow motion

That's so sad hope he is happy and positive 🙏 i bless you 🙏 ❤️
Lovw how understanding the staff are. Treating him properly and not in a condescending way, clearly happy to have him and understanding. Ms. Ayesha handles him so well, and is so patient and genuine with him.
Poetry teacher: did you write that down Christopher?
Christopher: no I didn’t-
*MY HEART*
Yeah. The look on his face when she said would you write it down? It was almost like he felt he didnt need to but whe she said he should he was like OHH i didnt know i was supposed to. God bless this young man
All the smirks before he said what he said turned to realization.
That would be my reaction too tbh

There is such a difference between boys with autism vs girls with autism and it really amazes me. Boys have a much more outgoing and loud kind of autism and girls have a much more quiet and shy kind of autism. It does very depending on the person but this is the most common kinds. As a girl with autism I find all of this very interesting and learning about my mental disorder really fascinates me. From the outside autistic kids quite often just seem happy but it is actually a really hard mental disorder to have. I have mad respect for everyone who respects autistic people and I’m very proud of all the other autistic kids who manage their autism and those who even try to because I know how hard it is to have this disorder. ❤️
Female on the spectrum too. I was quiet when little but got chastised for it and developed people pleasing tendencies. I try to reach out to people a lot and can seem quite warm but I struggle a lot with anxiety and overwhelm.
That's not actually true. There are two different expressions of autism, true, but they aren't actually related to gender, it's just extraversion vs introversion. Boys with autism that are shy and submissive are usually picked up as autistic, but girls who have these traits are not, because of gender stereotypes. On the other hand, when autistic boys are loud and extroverted, they are picked up as autistic, but girls who are have their symptoms put down to borderline personality disorder or behavioural problems. The difference in diagnosis between boys and girls is due to bias in the medical field, not there being "boy autism" and "girl autism".
@@robokill387 That’s exactly what I was going to say! The ratio in diagnosis of boys to girls is roughly 5:1. My brother and I both have autism, but he was diagnosed at the age of 3, and I wasn’t diagnosed until a month ago at 18 years old. The under diagnosis of women and girls on the spectrum is a really serious issue that I wish was talked about more.
@@robokill387 It's almost like psychology is a pesudo-science or something.
That’s a generalisation. I assume you’ve met enough males/females openly on the spectrum in order to come to such a conclusion, or contrastingly, you should be citing the studies you’re referencing in order to derive your analysis on gender stereotypes with autism.
stop hes literally the nicest person ever😭

I put Christopher at around 5 on the autistic spectrum. I spent 20 years working with adults & children throughout the autistic spectrum. Children like Christopher would’ve been a joy for me to work with.

Everyone's talking about Christopher, but Ms Ayesha is a real G, too.
Yes your right.
Mad respect to her
She actually a g when u think about it
As an autistic person who was heavily supported in school, I can definitely say that every learning support assistant I've ever worked with have been such amazing people. They deserve a lot more respect and praise than they really get.
Teacher: “Why are you late to class?”
Christopher: Sorry. Had to walk in *slow motion*
Teacher: “Understandable, have a good day.”

He's one of those rare few individuals, most folks encounter 3-5 times during their lifetime.
They've got that energetic trait of being able to gather people around them. Something politicians, leaders, CEOs, kings/queens, etc wished they possessed.

I use to go to school with this guy.

Literally 0:59 into the video and I’m blubbering like a baby, what a precious sweet child. ❤
We need more teaching staff like this instead of rude ignorant teachers
I agree.
I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that teachers are actually respected by society there versus here in the US where they are often treated and paid like crap.
I had the best (French) teacher you could think of. Others didn't like her, because she was so organized and strict with rules. I loved her. She did so much in those 3 years, she became my counselor/mentor (I don't know the exact English word for it) and helped me with all things regarding school and the rest. She didn't get paid for helping me so much, but she did it because she wanted to:)
A few days ago I suddenly got a text asking about how I've been, so even now she still thinks about me:)
So I totally agree with you, we need more teachers with that patience and positivity. That works well for everyone:)
@@Unknown26557 The average income for teachers in the US is $ 62,000 a year. They are most certainly not underpaid like they used to be. And the unions have their back and make sure they are spoiled rotten. There are a ton of teachers out there who make six figure incomes. Your comment is false about income. I do agree that many teachers put up with crap that they should never have to but that's a whole different issue.
I aslo agree

The headteacher in this video Ms Smith was my history teacher in secondary school. She was a marvellous teacher
His teaching assistant is great, you can tell it's not just a job for her.
She genuinely cares about Christopher.
Christopher is so positive and caring, not a bad bone in him
💯
People with caretaker jobs have to love their job or they would be miserable lol. Most caretakers or assistants I’ve met are always super nice
I had a counselor in middle school who was the best not only did she care for me but she genuinely under stood me and my personality. That’s what made her the best because she took the time to know me and figure out how to help me.
Most teaching assistants are very nice, they are vastly underpaid for what they do
i agree! also not a lot of schools would offer to take them out on a bus to help them get used to doing it for college
"I always wondered, what's it like to be 'normal'. But this term is just man-made."
Wow. This kid gets it
The man is a philosopher
This brought tears to my eyes. What a beautiful human being and example of uplifting others and the world around you.❤️
He's very smart and very self aware which is obviously why he struggles. Best of luck in your life and everything you do Christopher, you're a true gem❤
