    A kid called him a monster and he felt insulted. Any other child would've run away crying but Nathaniel is way more mature than most kids. His future is bright already.

      Why would you feel bad? She wants a child that won't cost her hundreds of thousands in medical bills or be bullied every day of his life. She wants a child that looks like a child. Why is that so much to ask for you? Disabled people aren't stupid and they are aware of their disabilities, they know what they look like so please don't patronize.

    Imagine that was your parents talking about you and your siblings like that, and then imagine getting older and searching up ur interview you did as a child, out of curiosity, only to find out ur parents couldnt see you without crying for a whole year and on top of that they call your sibling beautiful and perfect at birth. Imagine watching it and finding out that your parents said you almost didnt look human because your facial features, completely disregarding the fact that ur perfect in every other way besides ur face. Yea no wonder theyre getting all that hate, at least theyre in the boys life but come on they could have kept that to themselves and not say it on national televison for everyone to see, including their child.

    • @Gigi_Ouija
      @Gigi_Ouija 5 лет назад +9

      They've obviously had the conversations with their son about how he looks, how they felt, etc. It doesn't do him any good to hide him from reality like that. He was forced to mature faster than other kids in regards to manners and rudeness from others. In order to cope with ANYTHING, you must talk about it. That's what these parents are doing. There's nothing wrong with that imo.

    • @s.f6851
      @s.f6851 5 лет назад +15

      I know that they did sound harsh and a little mean, but let's be real here and put ourselves in their shoes. I mean it was a shock for them to see their first child in this heartbraking condition knowing that he might die at any moment because of the syndrome complications and that if he did survive life is going to be hard on him and that it's going to take a lot of hardwork until he finally get to life as much of normal life as possible.

      I think it was good the parents said this. Now we as people can examine ourselves when we judge people. Believe me if you look at strangers and judge their beauty based off of appearance than one will do it to their own children. I hope these parents deal with their own perception and insecurities which they are projecting on their son. This happen so so often with parents though that it is almost embarrassing when heard or seen in public and tv

    • @sign543
      @sign543 4 года назад

      bibipeach66 - Imagine that you stop being so dramatic. Maybe you should stop “imagining” and actually do something to better the world. Reality doesn’t need any help...and we certainly don’t need people patronizing people with physical or other challenges. “Oh, you’re perfect and beautiful!” There is no such thing as perfect...and beautiful is subjective. We live in the real world, and the parents are being honest about the realities of having a child with special needs. My son was born with a club foot and had surgeries every year until he was 6 years old. We don’t “imagine” how he will feel later looking back. We do the right thing today by talking about real things, not pretending that he can win the olympics or the 50 yard dash. He won’t be able to do those things. We focus on the things he CAN do. Kids don’t need to be patronized with goofy falsities. He’s different in appearance, he knows it, his parents know it, so why pretend he’s not or that we have to ignore it?

    I have no hatred towards these parents. Their reaction is 100% normal and understandable. I have yet to meet a parent who is not heartbroken by their child when they have severe medical/developmental issues. This never means they moved them any less than their typical developing child. Talking and expressing exactly how you feel is going to be more beneficial in the long run compared to keeping it in and bottling up emotions.

    With the way that the parents cried, said he didn't look human, called him a monster... I was expecting a more shocking baby picture. He was a cute baby, so small sweet and tender. Even his mom saying it took her a year to get used to his face, i think he looks so cute. I think the parents still dont accept him.

    • @karinalemus2305
      @karinalemus2305 Год назад

      They definitely don't. If you read the book they wrote, Normal, you can tell how seriously they treat him like a baby and how they literally neglect Jacob saying that his life came second.

    Such a brave little boy. I have seen documentaries on Treacher Collins syndrome in the past but this really got to me the most. I really hope he finds true friends that will accept him and overlook his condition. He didn't ask to be that way and it's so cruel to shun/exclude him. If I had the power, I would correct this for him in a heart beat.

      It isn't confirmed but yes, based on what the author said in the book, you know he doesn't have ears, he eats like a turtle and how the child in the movie looks, it's pretty obvious that auggie has treacher collins
