I happened to check the word "autism" while scrolling through the news today and saw that it was connected to the show "America's Got Talent." So I did some more searching and came up with a video clip of him; he's really adorable. It's a positive thing too, so for those who are used to only negatives being shown, here's a change.

Ok, I'm now crying like a baby . . . cutest kid ever . . .
Kris
I admit, I getting teary eyed watching it (although I can't identify why). Did he look like he was going to start crying halfway through his song, or was that just me projecting?
Paula - I haven't stolen him, and as tempting as it is (he is cute), it is very obvious that his parents love him and he them, which is a good thing. _________________ "You'll never get to heaven if you're afraid of getting high."
It's cool how singing was his first form of verbal communication with others (I'm assuming he sang along to songs he liked on the bus); it's actually a common thing, in reality (some sing songs they hear, others hum a tune, and others still sing/hum a jingle/commercial).

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? _________________ Currently Reading: Survival by Juliet E. Czerneda
