You all AS
answer this question, knowing we all have half a tiket for this circus trip:
Would you like to become a part of the circus show?
As a child, Once I decided to be in TV but it was myself who made his own mind up to do it. I send a post-card-form and they accepted me.
After 2 weeks 1 hour dayly in TV, everybody and girls were saluting at street in my city for months, also at school they changed my name or many years, not a bad life. (It was some quiz questions/answers black&White TVshow, only one channel). It was funny for a while not for long period, and for my own sake.
After all you come back to normal life and you will not realize there are more important things. Life is quite different.
Maybe the kid is getting lots of money for himself and this is great for future, that I find ok.
For a few months is great not to oblige him for years to work into once own "illness".
The point is freedom, when you wish you get in, and when you want you go out.

"You know you are the heart of America".. bla bla
The boy is wonderful like all autists.
I do not know why the boy has to MAKE anything to being supported. All of us are marvellous and we all make marvellous things every day.
Myself, apart of child, that Autist-children missuse can be very dangerous and gift children life with some impossible ideas. Better be a Happy person, than a "tool" of parents, TV, media.
In to words: All of them are making money with the blood of a autist child, who doesnt know who he is and what he is doing.
I enjoyed for the kid itself
, but I worried for the abuse made by all who are profiting of him as he were a cow taking milk.
Like the hungarian gippis who used bears for jumping and make circus.
That is all about child performers "USED", mostly who happen to be AS.
Let them be happy, not to be a NAME.

That's a fairly ignorant thing to say.
Ghostgurl - I've read a few articles and watched a few other clips, and they all say that he was diagnosed with autism and/or specifically refer to him as autistic. I haven't heard anything against that at the moment.

He was diagnosed with autism at the age of 3 and he had late speech aswell.

...What do you mean by that ?
Also , to be honest , aside from one being , perhaps , able to say that about performers and a song in general , especially on a " talent show " such as this where people tend to do familiar songs that many people recognize , you've touched a little bit on my unease , a bit , about child performers in general , not just ones who happen to be AS .

I enjoy watching America's Got Talent and I saw a clip of this boy. I didn't know he was autistic though. Is that confirmed?
