It is sad. Mine (FAS) is in jail since 17. For the rest of my life I will be talking too him on the phone about his matchbox cars and about how we will go camping again some day. (He doesn't fully understand the life sentence)
She's so cute. Of course they drive her nuts, but you know they all watch out for her, too. She definitely loves to torment them back, too. You can see the sad in her eyes and her smile.
She was adorable and her hair is beautiful, she's got so much protection and love with all those big brothers lol I'm pretty sure ,if u ask her the same question 16 yrs from now her answer will be the same lol, it's just how brothers are, I'm 51yrs old and my brother is 18 months older than me and he is a ROYAL pain in my butt...but I love him we lost our mother on my 19th birthday and we never got any help ,counseling for ourselves, so I know for me, I've just let go of my resement this year and my birthday is a on the 18th of September, this month ,every year my emotions are different ..I know that I will see her again when my day comes up and its time for me to go home to our heavenly father, we have our father who gave us life with my mother...but God is everyone's ultimate father I'm trying to accept that it seems says that it takes away the fact that my BIOLOGICAL father is not my real father I'm I'm worring on that one ...sorry such a long comment thank u for doing this vidio,I appreciated it keep up the great videos!👍😁🖐☕🙏🏻🌹Thank u to all of the family members, and I'd love to give you all big hugs keep up your dreams for the future..
Omg Warren broke my soul. You can just see how much appreciation and love he has for this family and sadness from whatever trauma and loss he had before. He can't say anything because the emotions involved would just have him bawling.
Yeah he started to cry when asked about his situation. He’s so sweet. There’s so much trauma there. I hope everyone outside their family treats him with love and respect. What a sweet kid.
Mama doesn't play ANY games about her boys and I love it! They deserve a strong, nurturing, protective Mama to balance out the anger and hurt they must feel towards their biological mother. Their dad did a great job choosing a partner. God bless them all. 💜
@@never4saken165 He is not the Bio dad of the boys as far as I understand. They said their dad was never around and the mom drank in front of them. Hard to believe that this man would let that happen. I think he just adopted them from an early age. And they are from different families as well.
@@Aunalovea Oh I see! I watched it back and I agree with you now. And of course that doesn’t make him the bad guy. I first didn’t understand that he was working to keep them fed. I’m glad he has an amazing wife now who is a good mom to their kids ^^
If this is their dad, it’s awful that he would have continued having babies with a woman who kept birthing children with FAS. Picking partners is important, and this right here is why. Don’t have children with someone who is a terrible parent, for these poor children sake.
Warren is 😞 so sad. His wish is for everyone to survive indicates he had some serious trauma when he was younger. I’m so impressed with these boys. I love how one boy talked about not hurting someone when they hurt him that is HUGE for any child and even more so with the diagnosis alchohal fetal syndrome. The boys are intelligent and have beautiful personality.
I think you are absolutely right. He is far too reserved, quiet and seemingly nervous for a kid of his age. I was the same way when I was his age. Very quiet, yet very emotional and deeply depressed, never wanted to put my burdens on other people even if it was just asking for Tylenol. For some reason when I saw Warren, the way he talked, how he looked around and just basically operated; it brought me right back to my childhood trauma. I ended up being BPD. Who's to say what diagnoses Warren might have when he is a fully grown adult, but I really hope he doesn't have a mood disorder, I really hope I'm reading too much into it.
@@jacket5456 Same situation here, also got a BPD diagnosis. If I ever have kids I’m not gonna make any of the mistakes my parents have. Hope you’re doing alright
I cried watching the boy with tears running down his cheek. More so because of how much he was trying to hold it back. Let it out little man. You are loved by your family, and yes they are your family.
Wow. When the mom said that some cashiers give them incorrect change on purpose my jaw dropped. I can’t believe there are people out there who would take advantage of their disability
They take advantage of the empathy and kindness of one branch of people in particular and when I say they , I don’t mean the family here , I mean their larger tribe . So in the end it cuts both ways . Though I guess one could really say most of the cutting is still coming from the end of their tribe rather than vice versa . How funny would it be if the cashiers who did this were in fact many of their own larger tribe ? But then again it wouldn’t be funny , as that would only further the stereotype of B on B crime . Even though only petty crime here in that case .
Considering their disability, they are quite intelligent and can express themselves well. What great, handsome, loving kids!! It's nice to see the love their mom and dad have for them. You can tell by how the kids talk of them that they love their family very much..❤
@@paulbarclay4114 That is their adoptive Mom in the video. Their biological mother was in and out of their lives, they said. One of the boys said she would drink in front of them. Their father and adoptive mother give them love.
Having a foetal alcohol syndrome not make you any less emotional intelligent or intelligent, and please don’t say ‘considering his disability’ I have no alcohol syndrome and I am no different than anyone else,
bro what? considering their disability? since when does having a disability make you unintelligent? Even when someone might not "seem" intelligent, they are, they just can't tell you, or they can't do anything with their intelligence. I have disabilities and I'm by all accounts very intelligent. Ask anyone they'll say I'm emotionally very mature for my age. and fwiw I excelled in school and university.
5:22 when she said the discrimination against certain disabilities and how people treat certain disabilities different is sooooo true. My daughter is autistic and has epilepsy and multiple times I have witnessed state employees treating us as though we aren’t “legitimately” disabled... it disgusts me that even the people who are supposed to help us try and bring us down.
Sorry to hear that, man. Both of you guys, I'm sorry to hear that. My son has ADHD and the school recognizes it, but he's also intelligent and I teach him a lot (he's only going into kinder) so while he's ahead of the curve intellectually at this point, that's an effect of many hours, days and weeks spent speaking to him, reading to him, working on concepts of numbers and adding and subtracting, working on letters and what letters make what sounds, and I didn't want him to be in special education if I could help it, and I'm glad I feel that way because he isn't intellectually delayed, so he wouldn't qualify even if I wanted him to. No one should ever invalidate you or your kids disabilities and I hope moving forward, people are able to respect the fact of some disabilities not being obvious, but still being serious in their own right.
My son had a seizure randomly and paramedics came and told me there was no way he had a seizure because they arrived 2 minutes after it ended and he was coherent enough to speak and wasn't unconscious. They said "if it were a seizure, and his first one, he'd be tired and unable to speak." I filmed my son seizing because he also has liver disease and I've experience doctors telling me he can't be THAT sick because he was JOYFUL. I don't know what they teach in medical school outside of technicalities............... I showed paramedics the video and they were like "..........that's fefinitely a seizure" 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 as a parent it is SO frustrating and upsetting knowing you have to depend on others because they have the years of training that you Don't
There is always hope, one of my ex girlfriends from highschool had fetal alcohol syndrome and she had to work harder than everyone around her, but she realized her dream of becoming a mycologist. She had a good ten year run until the brain cancer took her from all of us. Love is always wise.
@@overgrownkudzu her transformation was amazing, she built herself up from over anxious, slightly oblivious and was made to feel inferior growing up to sharp minded, vibrant, well spoken , well learned woman who always got excited about spores.
Seeing warren made me want to give him the biggest warmest hug possible when he started crying and there’s something so special about Keivon’s eyes. And everyone is determined which is encouraging to be the best version of themselves
I am convinced they understand so much more than those teachers, they may not know math but they know things about being human some people forgot. They are beautiful and I am convinced I could learn from them.
I think you're very right. The silent son had a huge impact on me. I think he knows so much, but finds it impossible to explain what he's thinking to the average person.
Every police force, teaching staff, and anyone involved with the public should see this video. So many people would see these kids in public and assume they are just se little thugs because of their skin and the disabilities they have. But this is the epidemy of a loving family and these are all genuinely good and respectable young men that had a hard beginning. I love them all!!! They are all an inspiration
@@cocopus that's a really horrible thing to say. I'm sorry that you must feel sad or angry in your life if you feel you have to tear innocent people down. words can hurt so please try to be kind to others
@@pcatma lol why would anyone get hurt by the words of some troll on the internet??? i'm just trolling and i doubt anyone would take what i said to heart. if they do. welp its the internet.
@@cocopus Please take a moment to really self reflect and ask yourself why you feel the need to say horrible things about kind, innocent people that you've never met. Ask yourself what benefit it gives to you or to the world, and whether you are making the world a better place or a sadder place by saying it. Also really ask yourself what it is inside you that's driving you to say these things. Is there someone you could talk to about how you feel and ways you can improve your life to make it so that you don't feel you have to 'troll' anymore?
microcephaly might have made their brains smaller but I think it also made their hearts larger because these boys are so full of love:) This family is such an inspiration
Those parents have put so much love into caring for their sons. It takes strength and determination to raise children with special needs because you often have to fight to get them the services they need. I can tell they're badasses. Also, they've been raising 5 freaking kids (and they've been doing it WELL). That right there is an accomplishment.
@@techotopo the boys with FAS are adopted. She's not the one who gave the syndrome to them, these parents took them into their family. They are great and raising all their kids well
The boy in the red jersey (sorry I don't remember his name!) seems so happy and loving towards his family. You can really tell his parents are so proud of him, especially dad with the way he looked at him while he was mentioning unconditional love 🥰
'What is your the favorite thing about yourself?" 'I like everything about myself. it's just a warm feeling thing." This kid is more mentally stable than most adults LOL! Good on him I am so happy for this family, so much love!
Was thinking the same thing! This family seems great, and these young adults are shockingly introspective and positive, despite the fact that they all clearly grew up facing large challenges. I love their positivity and you can tell that these parents did a great job raising theses children
My DEEP respect to those absolutely amazing parents. This family is more functional and loving than most families I know. They are all beautiful, beautiful people.
The most interesting moment in this video is when Warren is sitting in between the two parents and is asked two serious questions about his worldview, both of which he ultimately decides not to answer, at which point the mom steps in and says on his behalf that these kinds of questions make him emotional and thus he says nothing. If she didn't say that, I wonder how many people would've felt the same amount of sympathy. I only say this because their concerns over police abuse are very real, and society does view them in a very particular way, which is all the more reason we need to be very conscious of our own biases. These are children dealing with a legacy of racism and neglect, subjected to multiple diagnoses and disorders, all of which are compounded from the way we look at black children -- the way we are predisposed to seeing them in a very violent and negative light. Understand that these children/young men have to deal with all of it. All of our comments don't change the fact that most of those commenting would so easily dismiss them in real life, when there isn't the buffer of a host, and the internet, and who knows how many miles between us and them. The first lesson we get from this shouldn't be "Oh, wow, how amazing!", like it makes us superior people for writing something positive about this family. The first lesson should instead be, "Oh, wow, I can't believe the amount of pressure that these kids are under! The lack of funding in their community. The impact that racism has daily in their lives.". Because this world won't get better by lifting this family up with a few friendly comments. It will get better when we rip apart institutional racism, the prison industrial complex, corruption in both the educational and judicial systems. When we challenge racism at even the most subtle level, that's when they (these young men) can just be their own age. It's not a "next man" problem; It's an "us" problem. It's something we either take an active account in eliminating or we are entirely complicit in keeping it. Anything else is just lip service, IMO.
❤❤❤facts I can't believe this comment didn't get more likes. Maybe bc your are speaking the truth and some just want a "show" of support and positivity verbally online and not really vare to do something once they close their computers or turn off their phones.
hearing those boys talk about how much their parents love them is so moving. them knowing that they're loved and seeing how that reflects in their overwhelmingly positive self-image is so inspiring
dude warren is awesome. you can tell he really thinks about each question and the responses he has to each question. i wish you the best warren! and all in this video. and not in a pity way-you all seem like great people
This woman is amazing to step up and be a mom to these sweet boys! When the boys talked about finally having a mom who was present and cared about them 😭😭 made me happy but broke my heart. "I like everything about myself" lol love it!💓💓💓 The dad here is their biological dad? I do get worried if they ever have interactions with the police. God bless and protect them
ikr? Beautiful to see how strong those bonds are and how much they all lift each other up. Makes me even more interested in adopting one day if I can get into the right situation in life.
Thank you so much for this. I'm getting married this week to an incredible woman who is fostering and adopting 7 kids. 5 of them have FASD. I have 2 children of my own, 1 with CP. I'm coming into this with little to no understanding of FASD. I see so much of what your kids struggle with and what my fiancés kids struggles are. I came here to learn and I left with so much. Thank you.
That's the thing though..... they are open about their condition and it's impact on their ability to function neorotypically, but their emotional maturity and dedication to their family is years above their peers. Truly, I fely inspired by them instead of feeling sorry for them. What an amazing, deeply loving and understanding family. They have space to express their love, fear and hope for each other. Thanks for sharing your story! (So glad comments are back! Been wanting to say that for a year now, lol)
Man, the older brother is so convicted about life, I swear I'd never realize anything ""wrong"" with him, he's a typical sports guy who has ADHD. Like, bruh knows exactly how things are, his way of thinking is inspiring, even more considering he's aware of said condition. I really hope he manages to get to NFL.
"Its just unconditional love (and) I feel it all the time." What a beautiful thing to hear. That's the best thing a child can acknowledge in a family. 🥰
@@ThePsychosis92 I get your point, but they don’t have an illness. They were damaged by their mother drinking whilst pregnant. It’s a disability. An illness suggests it’s contagious or that they will ‘get better’. Hearing that people take advantage them is truly sickening. God bless them.
@@ThePsychosis92 again it’s a mental disability. Illnesses can be cured or treated generally and were acquired along the way, these guys were born like this. This is not depression which can come and go. Or bipolar which can be treated with life-long medication to keep it in check. There is no drug to help these guys in their disability. The language we use IS important. I hear what you’re saying but generally kids are very accepting (20+ years of teaching) and will accept other kids if they have good teachers and parents. Where kids are mean is when their parents pass on hateful attitudes. This is why as children get older they learn a lot more harmful attitudes and behaviours than when they are small. It seems these kids have been well supported in their friendship groups and at school, those who take advantage are generally ignorant adults for example in stores when they don’t give them the right change which is tragic and inexcusable. Generally speaking schools are full of children with disabilities these days and so modern children are more accepting of difference. In days gone by, disabled kids were sent to sanitariums and the general population were not so well educated in being accepting. There’s no excuse for that outdated attitude nowadays, and yet there are still plenty of ignorant and unkind people who simply do not want to be accommodating.
@@mantleofelijah :( really? I thought it was just the name... but it’s just because the mom was irresponsible and drank while pregnant for FOUR babies?? ☹️
@@f.k.a1010 I’m African myself so I knw if it is rare between Africans to see alcoholic African . There are obviously some African that are alcoholics but it’s not a lot ,majority of African don’t drink a lot because it’s not our culture .
Vanessa seems like a gem of a human. I admire her so much throughout this video. This family is beautiful. Bless you both for your service, and beyond.
That boy in the red jersey has a smile on his face!! ALWAYS!! He just looks like an extremely happy kid!!👍👍 Kudos to these parents!! I know a LOT of parents that could definitely take some lessons from you two!! 👏👏
I wish I could wipe away the struggles that these sweet boys have. To Warren: I'm glad you've found a wonderful family, & I'm glad you're in this world! You'll have a good life with a heart that big, just like the rest of this family!
The comments are back and I want to say something. Big Thanks to Chris Ulmer for giving us insight in their lives , and getting them to share their experiences, and being a friend. And a massive thank you to the guys bring interviewed. I wish them the best of luck in their lives!
I have every faith that these boys will grow up to be good people, because they seem like good people already. So determind and caring. I love that the family has taken Warren in as one of their own. The Sessions seem like wonderful parents, I'm sure all their children will make them proud. ETA: Mrs Session's dress is stunning!
They are an amazing family. They are raising their boys to have good values and hopefully they will find occupations which harness their physical skills and energy. I agree her dress is stunning. A beautiful, African style outfit. What a beautiful family.
You can see the parenting in their commonalities. They express wanting to be good, kind people. They believe they can do and be anything they want. They appreciate their parents and siblings. All different kinds of kids yet they all share those beautiful values.
Warren crying , my heart cracked open . Bless that baby boy and bless the parents . I hope they all get everything they could ever want in this life ♥️
I used to babysit some children with fetal alcohol syndrome (they were adopted, and the birth mother is finally sober and is getting her life back together!). The children were wonderful, but their disseases caused some serious challenges in their life that especially affect their mental health in terms of mood management and being able to express their feelings in appropriate manners. Every day is a new challenge for those kids, but it's been wonderful seeing them grow up and turn into adolescents and learn every day new ways to tackle life
I think one of the best questions is "What should people say if they want to be your friend?" For lots of people and me too, it's very useful to know how different people feel about that question, and think about the answers, it's really good information to facilitate communication and making people feel appreciated. It makes me think to myself "I should ask people that when I meet them."
I don’t normally comment but it’s so beautiful seeing you respect and showcase this family of color with RESPECT. you treat everyone like people regardless of external factors and we truly need more ppl like you
I wish this family was in N.Y.! Resources,support, especially finances and educational pieces would be in place. Unfortunately the social piece could be challenging.
Yes! The fact she grew up without family or support herself, and clearly struggled, but grew into this caring and strong person who is giving her children the love she never received is just amazing. Both parents seem so grounded, thoughtful, present and loving. You can tell they're passing those qualities onto their children as they raise them, and they'll grow up to be strong, loving people as well. Breaking a negative generational cycle and turning it into a positive one is really the most impressive thing a person can do imo.
I can feel what the dad is saying about sheltering his children. I know that I have sheltered my son with special needs, but now that he is a preteen, I am trying to talk more about real life and push him to be more independent. It's hard. You want your child to be a child and not be treated different, but they also have to function in the world.
Every single one of these boys is so adorable and you can tell they all have the kindest hearts. I wish them all the best that life can provide. How precious!!!
So the bio mom not only drank throughout her first pregnancy but then went on to do it 3 more times?! Having an innocent baby pay for her poor choices is just so sad. People like that popping kids out left and right and then theres someone like me who would give anything to get to be a mom and i cant. I have to hope its because im meant to adopt, just like this beautiful family 10:09 is proof what Chris is doing is so important. Giving these people a voice while showing so many others that theyre not alone🧡 This is the best channel on RUclips, hands down. Also 11:09 the sisters energy is so relatable haha love how brutally honest kids are.
You know what? These boys have very nice dispositions- they are really well mannered. I mean, we all have our moments and I'm sure they do but the parents seem to be doing an extraordinary job raising them. Fabulous young men❤️❤️❤️ I love them ...
As Warren said, if i had one wish, it would be for everyone to be alive. I may struggle with a few autoimmune conditions, bur everyday i remember that i am alive.
My son has ADHD, ODD, OCD, slightly on the spectrum and developed epilepsy at 17. It’s a hard job to be able to advocate for him and care for him the way he needs to be cared for and I give so much love to these parents and kids 🤍🤍🤍🤍
What a handsome bunch of sweet compassionate young men. They have good hearts. I bet they can do very well, they just need more one on one with a tutor. What an amazing mother they have to take over being their mother. These parent's are so loving, they also need praise for all their hard work and patience rasing their son's and daughter. ❤
You guys may think you’re brain is small but you guys have a big mind and warm heart ! These guys warmed my heart to watch this ! I have a disability and know the troubles what they go through..No matter what your disability is you are intelligent in your own way…And Warren started tearing up I started tearing up too ..this is emotionally warming
This interview makes me question what “ normal” even is. These brothers are so articulate…and the appreciation they carry is unmatched. The parents are AMAZING.. I will never forget this amazing family
I can relate to having ADHD and getting SO MAD sometimes! I really appreciate this wonderful family sharing their stories. All of those smiles were infectious and the love everyone has is tangible.
Wonderful young men. I'm praying they will achieve everything they dream of and be happy forever ❤️ Warren, as a military member myself, it would be an honor to serve with you brother. We need more people with passion
I’m so proud of how articulate, poised, and authentic they are! These young men are determined to understand. I pray society returns their sincere desire to understand and connect. Blessings Kings.
These boys are very smart considering their diagnoses. I sure hope the best for them. They care about each other which is so heartwarming. I hope the two boys make it to the NFL. And I can't say enough about the parents and how they are raising these kids with so much love and respect. I feel so much love for this family.
It made me cry and smile in the same time. They are all amazing, kind and loving. I had a very bad day today (lost my job), but after this video I realize how lucky I am. If these kids can be positive and having hopes in the future, despite all their hardships, I will be okay too. I wish them and their parents all the best!!
Their sister is so cute!! I love her hair and her no-hesitation answer of "annoying". I was the same way with my siblings when I was that age and now we're really close, hope the same is true for her and her brothers in the years to come🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
i randomly was suggested this video on YT. This is the realest thing I ever saw on the internet. Every child, the parents, I dont have any words. My utmost respect goes out to all of them; I hope and pray to god they find success in their lives. When the father admitted he is worried about his kids after they turned 18, my heart shattered. Ive never seen anything on the internet so real as this interview. Thank you. Thank you for changing my view on so many things.
what I will remember from this interview is that we are not equal. You are so much better than the majority! if more people thought and acted like you, this world would look so much better ❤️ thank you so much for sharing your story ❤️
“They said something to me. It made me cry. It made me want to hurt them so bad, but I didn’t. Because I know I’m gonna make a change. I know I’m gonna be who I want to be. I’m gonna be a better person than who I am now.” This statement alone brought me to tears.
Being middle age that struggles with depression/ADHD, I am so proud of each and every one of you. What an absolutely wonderful and loving family you all are! Thank you for sharing your story. Mom and Dad, keep up the great job of raising these 6 beautiful children. Such a handsome family! Having this awesome and beautiful woman as your true mom is a definite bonus!
10:47 Warrens awnser to that question really makes you think how much we take our life for granted. Life is precious and fragile. Hes going to have a great future, he has so much strength ik
It’s so great to see we’ll adjusted children with great love from both loving and amazing parents. Keep up the great parenting. I have FASD, ASD and ADD, I needed a lot more social teaching / coaching and parenting than I got as a child. Like has been more difficult for me in life; but I’ve been more successful financially then my personally life. Diagnosed with ADD at age 61, figured out I also ASD and FASD at age 68.
My two boys have never seen me drink, 20 years sober, one has Autism, we’re not complaining, these boys are beautiful and what this family spells is LOVE 💕
@@calebpettit9066 Not really how it works for people with alcoholism. The drinking problem often doesn't go away and one drink causes you to drink more and more. The problem with alcohol is it only really good when you're on the "up" so you have to keep drinking to sustain it.
@@calebpettit9066 absolutely, if I could have a beer and stop and not be one of those people who behaves crazy and gets hammered I’d have that one. To those that can, nothing wrong with it ✌🏽😊🇦🇺
Some people have the most knowledge or a ''bigger brain'', and still don't have the common sense and compassion, love, and insight, as these young men! They are a beautiful family and I hope all the best for them that life has to offer.
It broke my heart when the father talked about worrying about them becoming adults and having problems with the law/the police.
I know ! Mine too
Yes, it’s a worry. God protect them.

Yeah he started to cry when asked about his situation. He’s so sweet. There’s so much trauma there. I hope everyone outside their family treats him with love and respect. What a sweet kid.

If only he chose a better woman to impregnate
@@never4saken165 He is not the Bio dad of the boys as far as I understand. They said their dad was never around and the mom drank in front of them. Hard to believe that this man would let that happen. I think he just adopted them from an early age. And they are from different families as well.
@@Aunalovea Oh I see! I watched it back and I agree with you now. And of course that doesn’t make him the bad guy. I first didn’t understand that he was working to keep them fed. I’m glad he has an amazing wife now who is a good mom to their kids ^^
If this is their dad, it’s awful that he would have continued having babies with a woman who kept birthing children with FAS. Picking partners is important, and this right here is why. Don’t have children with someone who is a terrible parent, for these poor children sake.
Mom and Dad are amazing parents! Role models for anyone!
Warren is 😞 so sad. His wish is for everyone to survive indicates he had some serious trauma when he was younger. I’m so impressed with these boys. I love how one boy talked about not hurting someone when they hurt him that is HUGE for any child and even more so with the diagnosis alchohal fetal syndrome. The boys are intelligent and have beautiful personality.
I think you are absolutely right. He is far too reserved, quiet and seemingly nervous for a kid of his age. I was the same way when I was his age. Very quiet, yet very emotional and deeply depressed, never wanted to put my burdens on other people even if it was just asking for Tylenol. For some reason when I saw Warren, the way he talked, how he looked around and just basically operated; it brought me right back to my childhood trauma. I ended up being BPD. Who's to say what diagnoses Warren might have when he is a fully grown adult, but I really hope he doesn't have a mood disorder, I really hope I'm reading too much into it.
@@jacket5456 Same situation here, also got a BPD diagnosis. If I ever have kids I’m not gonna make any of the mistakes my parents have. Hope you’re doing alright
@@ash_tray_6 I didn't get who is Warren. is him adopted or something who's his biological parents?
@@zzp1758 he is adopted into their family from another family in the neighborhood they used to live in
He has such a sadness in his eyes that no kid should have :( I’m not easy to make cry and he just crushed me. I’m glad he has such great parents now
"me and you are basically the same, it's just that i have a condition and you don't but we are still the same" this is so real
I cried watching the boy with tears running down his cheek. More so because of how much he was trying to hold it back. Let it out little man. You are loved by your family, and yes they are your family.
Wow. When the mom said that some cashiers give them incorrect change on purpose my jaw dropped. I can’t believe there are people out there who would take advantage of their disability
They take advantage of the empathy and kindness of one branch of people in particular and when I say they , I don’t mean the family here , I mean their larger tribe . So in the end it cuts both ways . Though I guess one could really say most of the cutting is still coming from the end of their tribe rather than vice versa . How funny would it be if the cashiers who did this were in fact many of their own larger tribe ? But then again it wouldn’t be funny , as that would only further the stereotype of B on B crime . Even though only petty crime here in that case .
what are you rambling about?@@BadGoy1488
All the time. It's not even rare. Being a disability parent is eye-opening.
Considering their disability, they are quite intelligent and can express themselves well. What great, handsome, loving kids!! It's nice to see the love their mom and dad have for them. You can tell by how the kids talk of them that they love their family very much..❤
Yea, I noticed that too. These boys have a very high emotional intelligence.
@@paulbarclay4114 That is their adoptive Mom in the video. Their biological mother was in and out of their lives, they said. One of the boys said she would drink in front of them. Their father and adoptive mother give them love.
Having a foetal alcohol syndrome not make you any less emotional intelligent or intelligent, and please don’t say ‘considering his disability’ I have no alcohol syndrome and I am no different than anyone else,
@@lindiwemhlanga5597 why wouldn’t they have emotional intelligence?
bro what? considering their disability? since when does having a disability make you unintelligent? Even when someone might not "seem" intelligent, they are, they just can't tell you, or they can't do anything with their intelligence.
I have disabilities and I'm by all accounts very intelligent. Ask anyone they'll say I'm emotionally very mature for my age. and fwiw I excelled in school and university.
5:22 when she said the discrimination against certain disabilities and how people treat certain disabilities different is sooooo true. My daughter is autistic and has epilepsy and multiple times I have witnessed state employees treating us as though we aren’t “legitimately” disabled... it disgusts me that even the people who are supposed to help us try and bring us down.
Sorry to hear that, man. Both of you guys, I'm sorry to hear that. My son has ADHD and the school recognizes it, but he's also intelligent and I teach him a lot (he's only going into kinder) so while he's ahead of the curve intellectually at this point, that's an effect of many hours, days and weeks spent speaking to him, reading to him, working on concepts of numbers and adding and subtracting, working on letters and what letters make what sounds, and I didn't want him to be in special education if I could help it, and I'm glad I feel that way because he isn't intellectually delayed, so he wouldn't qualify even if I wanted him to. No one should ever invalidate you or your kids disabilities and I hope moving forward, people are able to respect the fact of some disabilities not being obvious, but still being serious in their own right.
we? are you also disabled?
we? are you also disabled?
My son had a seizure randomly and paramedics came and told me there was no way he had a seizure because they arrived 2 minutes after it ended and he was coherent enough to speak and wasn't unconscious. They said "if it were a seizure, and his first one, he'd be tired and unable to speak." I filmed my son seizing because he also has liver disease and I've experience doctors telling me he can't be THAT sick because he was JOYFUL. I don't know what they teach in medical school outside of technicalities............... I showed paramedics the video and they were like "..........that's fefinitely a seizure" 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 as a parent it is SO frustrating and upsetting knowing you have to depend on others because they have the years of training that you Don't
There is always hope, one of my ex girlfriends from highschool had fetal alcohol syndrome and she had to work harder than everyone around her, but she realized her dream of becoming a mycologist. She had a good ten year run until the brain cancer took her from all of us. Love is always wise.
I'm sorry. Hugs
Oh God that didn’t turn out at all how it should’ve. I am so sorry for your loss.
Im sorry she passed on. Sounds like she was an amazing person.
that sucks... but it's awesome that she was able to achieve her goals even though it must have been harder for her than most people
@@overgrownkudzu her transformation was amazing, she built herself up from over anxious, slightly oblivious and was made to feel inferior growing up to sharp minded, vibrant, well spoken , well learned woman who always got excited about spores.
I want to give Warren a big hug. I know he's hiding a lot of pain through his demeanor
As a girl with ADHD and Fetal alcohol syndrome myself, I am just so impressed by this video. This is a great family💕
Same!!!
Agreed
Yo momma drained
Seeing warren made me want to give him the biggest warmest hug possible when he started crying and there’s something so special about Keivon’s eyes. And everyone is determined which is encouraging to be the best version of themselves
Definitely cutting onions over here
I am convinced they understand so much more than those teachers, they may not know math but they know things about being human some people forgot. They are beautiful and I am convinced I could learn from them.
Parents should enroll them in trade schools.
@@queenangel7927 trade schools are a good option! I like that :D
This is serious truth right here.
The birthday dude did have some beautiful eyes
I think you're very right. The silent son had a huge impact on me. I think he knows so much, but finds it impossible to explain what he's thinking to the average person.
That mother is an absolute angel. What a beautiful, wonderful person she is.
uh... they have fetal alcohol syndrome.... how is she an angel?...
@@sublimecryptics2808 She is the step mother. The real mother took off. Did you watch the video?
@@courtneyr214 was too busy googling all of their conditions
The father, too. This whole family is really inspiring. Thank you for making this important video. Beautiful people.
I love that her sons appreciate her and their dad ( I don’t hear that often)!
Every police force, teaching staff, and anyone involved with the public should see this video. So many people would see these kids in public and assume they are just se little thugs because of their skin and the disabilities they have. But this is the epidemy of a loving family and these are all genuinely good and respectable young men that had a hard beginning. I love them all!!! They are all an inspiration
seeing warren crying made me burst into tears.
he's such a good kid and I pray that he gets all the best things in life.
What sweet, handsome, kind, loving young men. What a lovely family.
Yes indeed ❤️👍
@@cocopus that's a really horrible thing to say. I'm sorry that you must feel sad or angry in your life if you feel you have to tear innocent people down. words can hurt so please try to be kind to others
@@pcatma lol why would anyone get hurt by the words of some troll on the internet??? i'm just trolling and i doubt anyone would take what i said to heart. if they do. welp its the internet.
@@cocopus Please take a moment to really self reflect and ask yourself why you feel the need to say horrible things about kind, innocent people that you've never met. Ask yourself what benefit it gives to you or to the world, and whether you are making the world a better place or a sadder place by saying it. Also really ask yourself what it is inside you that's driving you to say these things. Is there someone you could talk to about how you feel and ways you can improve your life to make it so that you don't feel you have to 'troll' anymore?
@@cocopus you need to find your own self worth - then you won’t be so quick to put others down...uncalled for👎🏽
microcephaly might have made their brains smaller but I think it also made their hearts larger because these boys are so full of love:) This family is such an inspiration
You said it best! So much love- these boys have so much depth!
Beautifully said Lena!
I thought that the fact of the brain not developing is the cause of microcephaly
So so true sister!
Absolutely
Warren's emotions hit me the most out of anyone in this video. I'm so glad he and the other kids have a supportive, loving home life !
Those parents have put so much love into caring for their sons. It takes strength and determination to raise children with special needs because you often have to fight to get them the services they need. I can tell they're badasses.
Also, they've been raising 5 freaking kids (and they've been doing it WELL). That right there is an accomplishment.
eehhhhh.... you mean the mother who drank tons of alcohol and caused their problems?
@@techotopo The dad made it clear that his wife was not the biological mother. I'm 99% certain all these kids were adopted.
@@techotopo the boys with FAS are adopted. She's not the one who gave the syndrome to them, these parents took them into their family. They are great and raising all their kids well
@@techotopoSomeone clearly wasn't paying attention, wow
The boy in the red jersey (sorry I don't remember his name!) seems so happy and loving towards his family. You can really tell his parents are so proud of him, especially dad with the way he looked at him while he was mentioning unconditional love 🥰
'What is your the favorite thing about yourself?" 'I like everything about myself. it's just a warm feeling thing." This kid is more mentally stable than most adults LOL! Good on him I am so happy for this family, so much love!
I'm so glad they have such a nice mom now. She loves those children.
PLEASE do an update on this family!!
Yes! I'd love to see how they're all doing as well
This🤝🤝
yoo facts though, would love to hear how they’re doing ☺️
Was thinking the same thing! This family seems great, and these young adults are shockingly introspective and positive, despite the fact that they all clearly grew up facing large challenges. I love their positivity and you can tell that these parents did a great job raising theses children
My DEEP respect to those absolutely amazing parents. This family is more functional and loving than most families I know. They are all beautiful, beautiful people.
The most interesting moment in this video is when Warren is sitting in between the two parents and is asked two serious questions about his worldview, both of which he ultimately decides not to answer, at which point the mom steps in and says on his behalf that these kinds of questions make him emotional and thus he says nothing.
If she didn't say that, I wonder how many people would've felt the same amount of sympathy. I only say this because their concerns over police abuse are very real, and society does view them in a very particular way, which is all the more reason we need to be very conscious of our own biases. These are children dealing with a legacy of racism and neglect, subjected to multiple diagnoses and disorders, all of which are compounded from the way we look at black children -- the way we are predisposed to seeing them in a very violent and negative light.
Understand that these children/young men have to deal with all of it. All of our comments don't change the fact that most of those commenting would so easily dismiss them in real life, when there isn't the buffer of a host, and the internet, and who knows how many miles between us and them. The first lesson we get from this shouldn't be "Oh, wow, how amazing!", like it makes us superior people for writing something positive about this family. The first lesson should instead be, "Oh, wow, I can't believe the amount of pressure that these kids are under! The lack of funding in their community. The impact that racism has daily in their lives.".
Because this world won't get better by lifting this family up with a few friendly comments. It will get better when we rip apart institutional racism, the prison industrial complex, corruption in both the educational and judicial systems. When we challenge racism at even the most subtle level, that's when they (these young men) can just be their own age. It's not a "next man" problem; It's an "us" problem. It's something we either take an active account in eliminating or we are entirely complicit in keeping it. Anything else is just lip service, IMO.
❤❤❤facts I can't believe this comment didn't get more likes. Maybe bc your are speaking the truth and some just want a "show" of support and positivity verbally online and not really vare to do something once they close their computers or turn off their phones.
TLDR
❤❤❤well said 🫶🏾
Thanks!!!
Completely true
hearing those boys talk about how much their parents love them is so moving. them knowing that they're loved and seeing how that reflects in their overwhelmingly positive self-image is so inspiring
Yes!
dude warren is awesome. you can tell he really thinks about each question and the responses he has to each question. i wish you the best warren! and all in this video. and not in a pity way-you all seem like great people
This woman is amazing to step up and be a mom to these sweet boys! When the boys talked about finally having a mom who was present and cared about them 😭😭 made me happy but broke my heart.
"I like everything about myself" lol love it!💓💓💓
The dad here is their biological dad?
I do get worried if they ever have interactions with the police. God bless and protect them
She’s so beautiful and endearing.
ikr? Beautiful to see how strong those bonds are and how much they all lift each other up. Makes me even more interested in adopting one day if I can get into the right situation in life.
The mother drunk alcohol while she was pregnant...
@@ajoyagua5669 that’s a foster mom.they real mom is not there.
God bless this family always
"we're taking care of them and they're taking care of us" what a beautiful definition of family
Thank you so much for this. I'm getting married this week to an incredible woman who is fostering and adopting 7 kids. 5 of them have FASD. I have 2 children of my own, 1 with CP. I'm coming into this with little to no understanding of FASD. I see so much of what your kids struggle with and what my fiancés kids struggles are. I came here to learn and I left with so much. Thank you.
That's the thing though..... they are open about their condition and it's impact on their ability to function neorotypically, but their emotional maturity and dedication to their family is years above their peers. Truly, I fely inspired by them instead of feeling sorry for them. What an amazing, deeply loving and understanding family. They have space to express their love, fear and hope for each other. Thanks for sharing your story! (So glad comments are back! Been wanting to say that for a year now, lol)
Man, the older brother is so convicted about life, I swear I'd never realize anything ""wrong"" with him, he's a typical sports guy who has ADHD. Like, bruh knows exactly how things are, his way of thinking is inspiring, even more considering he's aware of said condition. I really hope he manages to get to NFL.
"Its just unconditional love (and) I feel it all the time." What a beautiful thing to hear. That's the best thing a child can acknowledge in a family. 🥰
I am amazed by the emotional intelligence of all these kids. The parents are doing a great job.
“I love everything about myself.” God this couple did an amazing job as parents. It just shines right threw in this interview with everyone 🥰
Hearing that people take advantage of them sickened me. How utterly heartless do you have to be? No integrity or respect at all.
most kids wouldnt understand they have an illness.
@@ThePsychosis92 I get your point, but they don’t have an illness. They were damaged by their mother drinking whilst pregnant. It’s a disability. An illness suggests it’s contagious or that they will ‘get better’.
Hearing that people take advantage them is truly sickening. God bless them.
@@mantleofelijah meant mental illness..,just saying kids don't really have awareness,that people can be born with these disabilities.
@@ThePsychosis92 again it’s a mental disability. Illnesses can be cured or treated generally and were acquired along the way, these guys were born like this. This is not depression which can come and go. Or bipolar which can be treated with life-long medication to keep it in check. There is no drug to help these guys in their disability. The language we use IS important.
I hear what you’re saying but generally kids are very accepting (20+ years of teaching) and will accept other kids if they have good teachers and parents. Where kids are mean is when their parents pass on hateful attitudes. This is why as children get older they learn a lot more harmful attitudes and behaviours than when they are small. It seems these kids have been well supported in their friendship groups and at school, those who take advantage are generally ignorant adults for example in stores when they don’t give them the right change which is tragic and inexcusable.
Generally speaking schools are full of children with disabilities these days and so modern children are more accepting of difference. In days gone by, disabled kids were sent to sanitariums and the general population were not so well educated in being accepting. There’s no excuse for that outdated attitude nowadays, and yet there are still plenty of ignorant and unkind people who simply do not want to be accommodating.
@@mantleofelijah :( really? I thought it was just the name... but it’s just because the mom was irresponsible and drank while pregnant for FOUR babies?? ☹️
Everyone please keep in mind this isn't their biological mother in this video.
I was gonna say she has some nerves to be in front of the camera! Thank you for this comment.

I wish I could wipe away the struggles that these sweet boys have. To Warren: I'm glad you've found a wonderful family, & I'm glad you're in this world! You'll have a good life with a heart that big, just like the rest of this family!
These are literally the influences we need.
The brother with a Cougars shirt is too good for this world!
Omg yes, his huge smile made me cry with joy
The comments are back and I want to say something. Big Thanks to Chris Ulmer for giving us insight in their lives , and getting them to share their experiences, and being a friend. And a massive thank you to the guys bring interviewed. I wish them the best of luck in their lives!
I have every faith that these boys will grow up to be good people, because they seem like good people already. So determind and caring. I love that the family has taken Warren in as one of their own. The Sessions seem like wonderful parents, I'm sure all their children will make them proud.
ETA: Mrs Session's dress is stunning!
I agree!!!!! I’m so glad this came up under my recommended videos .
They are an amazing family. They are raising their boys to have good values and hopefully they will find occupations which harness their physical skills and energy. I agree her dress is stunning. A beautiful, African style outfit. What a beautiful family.
"I don't want to be in my bed crying because somebody said something to me" this broke my heart, I had to pause the vid for a sec
You can see the parenting in their commonalities. They express wanting to be good, kind people. They believe they can do and be anything they want. They appreciate their parents and siblings. All different kinds of kids yet they all share those beautiful values.
Warren crying , my heart cracked open . Bless that baby boy and bless the parents . I hope they all get everything they could ever want in this life ♥️
I’m crying. I love these two parents. I love this family.
I used to babysit some children with fetal alcohol syndrome (they were adopted, and the birth mother is finally sober and is getting her life back together!). The children were wonderful, but their disseases caused some serious challenges in their life that especially affect their mental health in terms of mood management and being able to express their feelings in appropriate manners. Every day is a new challenge for those kids, but it's been wonderful seeing them grow up and turn into adolescents and learn every day new ways to tackle life
I think one of the best questions is "What should people say if they want to be your friend?" For lots of people and me too, it's very useful to know how different people feel about that question, and think about the answers, it's really good information to facilitate communication and making people feel appreciated. It makes me think to myself "I should ask people that when I meet them."
I don’t normally comment but it’s so beautiful seeing you respect and showcase this family of color with RESPECT. you treat everyone like people regardless of external factors and we truly need more ppl like you
Fr
I've been crying for 20 minutes. inspired.taught.this is heartwarming
The mother, whom aged out of Foster Care, is impressive.
Aged out is a term that kinda breaks my heart
I wish this family was in N.Y.! Resources,support, especially finances and educational pieces would be in place. Unfortunately the social piece could be challenging.
Yes! The fact she grew up without family or support herself, and clearly struggled, but grew into this caring and strong person who is giving her children the love she never received is just amazing. Both parents seem so grounded, thoughtful, present and loving. You can tell they're passing those qualities onto their children as they raise them, and they'll grow up to be strong, loving people as well. Breaking a negative generational cycle and turning it into a positive one is really the most impressive thing a person can do imo.
Amen to this.
@@honestygreene1183 As someone who lives in NY some of those are true but really not the best place to be especially them having disabilities
I can feel what the dad is saying about sheltering his children. I know that I have sheltered my son with special needs, but now that he is a preteen, I am trying to talk more about real life and push him to be more independent. It's hard. You want your child to be a child and not be treated different, but they also have to function in the world.
Every single one of these boys is so adorable and you can tell they all have the kindest hearts. I wish them all the best that life can provide. How precious!!!
So the bio mom not only drank throughout her first pregnancy but then went on to do it 3 more times?! Having an innocent baby pay for her poor choices is just so sad.
People like that popping kids out left and right and then theres someone like me who would give anything to get to be a mom and i cant. I have to hope its because im meant to adopt, just like this beautiful family
10:09 is proof what Chris is doing is so important. Giving these people a voice while showing so many others that theyre not alone🧡 This is the best channel on RUclips, hands down.
Also 11:09 the sisters energy is so relatable haha love how brutally honest kids are.
This got me in tears 😭 god grow these children to remain happy & healthy

You know what? These boys have very nice dispositions- they are really well mannered. I mean, we all have our moments and I'm sure they do but the parents seem to be doing an extraordinary job raising them. Fabulous young men❤️❤️❤️ I love them ...
I'll never forget this interview. I've learned a lot today from this family that will last me a lifetime. God bless them.
As Warren said, if i had one wish, it would be for everyone to be alive. I may struggle with a few autoimmune conditions, bur everyday i remember that i am alive.
My son has ADHD, ODD, OCD, slightly on the spectrum and developed epilepsy at 17. It’s a hard job to be able to advocate for him and care for him the way he needs to be cared for and I give so much love to these parents and kids 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Those boys absolutely stole my heart. < 3
What a handsome bunch of sweet compassionate young men. They have good hearts. I bet they can do very well, they just need more one on one with a tutor. What an amazing mother they have to take over being their mother. These parent's are so loving, they also need praise for all their hard work and patience rasing their son's and daughter. ❤
You guys may think you’re brain is small but you guys have a big mind and warm heart ! These guys warmed my heart to watch this ! I have a disability and know the troubles what they go through..No matter what your disability is you are intelligent in your own way…And Warren started tearing up I started tearing up too ..this is emotionally warming
❤
This interview makes me question what “ normal” even is. These brothers are so articulate…and the appreciation they carry is unmatched. The parents are AMAZING.. I will never forget this amazing family
"What makes you the happiest" "LIfe. My life" that was beautiful.
I can relate to having ADHD and getting SO MAD sometimes! I really appreciate this wonderful family sharing their stories. All of those smiles were infectious and the love everyone has is tangible.
Wonderful young men. I'm praying they will achieve everything they dream of and be happy forever ❤️ Warren, as a military member myself, it would be an honor to serve with you brother. We need more people with passion
I’m so proud of how articulate, poised, and authentic they are! These young men are determined to understand. I pray society returns their sincere desire to understand and connect. Blessings Kings.
As a person with ADHD, I can relate to all of these young Kings, and I see them and they will make it through and they are awesome young Kings.
Me too, and seeing people with adhd and fasd make me feel like I’m not alone 💚😊
These boys are very smart considering their diagnoses. I sure hope the best for them. They care about each other which is so heartwarming. I hope the two boys make it to the NFL. And I can't say enough about the parents and how they are raising these kids with so much love and respect. I feel so much love for this family.
the pure love within this family has me sobbing. a great example of how you should support children. protect them at all costs!!!
It made me cry and smile in the same time. They are all amazing, kind and loving. I had a very bad day today (lost my job), but after this video I realize how lucky I am. If these kids can be positive and having hopes in the future, despite all their hardships, I will be okay too. I wish them and their parents all the best!!
You will find a new and a better job ❤. Be blessed 🙏🏾 and keep your head up!
God bless you!! I hope you’re doing well today and are happy and healthy ❤️❤️❤️
And the same to you.
Their sister is so cute!! I love her hair and her no-hesitation answer of "annoying". I was the same way with my siblings when I was that age and now we're really close, hope the same is true for her and her brothers in the years to come🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
THIS VIDEO IS SO IMPORTANT. This is my favorite SBSK video by far.
i randomly was suggested this video on YT. This is the realest thing I ever saw on the internet. Every child, the parents, I dont have any words. My utmost respect goes out to all of them; I hope and pray to god they find success in their lives.
When the father admitted he is worried about his kids after they turned 18, my heart shattered. Ive never seen anything on the internet so real as this interview. Thank you. Thank you for changing my view on so many things.
These boys absolutely gentlemen. They are sweet and kind!
came back once i realized comments were turned on to say- thank you for sharing your story!! what a beautiful family. warren has stolen my heart. 🥺🥺🥺
what I will remember from this interview is that we are not equal.
You are so much better than the majority!
if more people thought and acted like you, this world would look so much better ❤️ thank you so much for sharing your story ❤️
“They said something to me. It made me cry. It made me want to hurt them so bad, but I didn’t. Because I know I’m gonna make a change. I know I’m gonna be who I want to be. I’m gonna be a better person than who I am now.”
This statement alone brought me to tears.
What a positive comment section. If only more were like this. Excellent interview and my heart goes out to this incredibly loving family!
These 2 people are amazingly special and extraordinary parents.
This is some strong stuff.... Phew
Being middle age that struggles with depression/ADHD, I am so proud of each and every one of you. What an absolutely wonderful and loving family you all are! Thank you for sharing your story. Mom and Dad, keep up the great job of raising these 6 beautiful children. Such a handsome family! Having this awesome and beautiful woman as your true mom is a definite bonus!
10:47 Warrens awnser to that question really makes you think how much we take our life for granted. Life is precious and fragile.
Hes going to have a great future, he has so much strength ik
It’s so great to see we’ll adjusted children with great love from both loving and amazing parents. Keep up the great parenting. I have FASD, ASD and ADD, I needed a lot more social teaching / coaching and parenting than I got as a child. Like has been more difficult for me in life; but I’ve been more successful financially then my personally life. Diagnosed with ADD at age 61, figured out I also ASD and FASD at age 68.
What a beautiful family - y’all are such an example to others who need to work on showing love and working together.
My two boys have never seen me drink, 20 years sober, one has Autism, we’re not complaining, these boys are beautiful and what this family spells is LOVE 💕
Well done one day at a time

I see nothing wrong with a beer once in a while. I do. Not a big deal just don't get drunk lol
@@calebpettit9066 Not really how it works for people with alcoholism. The drinking problem often doesn't go away and one drink causes you to drink more and more. The problem with alcohol is it only really good when you're on the "up" so you have to keep drinking to sustain it.
@@calebpettit9066 absolutely, if I could have a beer and stop and not be one of those people who behaves crazy and gets hammered I’d have that one. To those that can, nothing wrong with it ✌🏽😊🇦🇺

They are a beautiful family and I hope all the best for them that life has to offer.
All such HANDSOME young men with the biggest of hearts! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Sweetest family ever.
Wow, what a special family. You parents are amazing.
It breaks my heart that people makes fun of them. They are good kids.
